Logo Design Brief
DotSauce Magazine is an online publication founded in 2007 that focuses primarily on the domain name industry, hence the play on words of "hot sauce."
I am looking for a more professional design update from the current dated logo, but I would still like to have a bit of edginess.
I would like the domain name "DotSauce.com" to be a key element of the logo.

Requirements
Must have
- URL: DotSauce.com
Tagline: What's HOT in domain names and online business
Design color scheme should work well with a red or dark red background.
Nice to have
- I would be interested to see an illustration of a hot sauce bottle somehow incorporated or other creative interpretations of the play on words of the DotSauce brand name.
Bonus points for incorporating a distinctive element within the logo that I can extract and use as an icon/avatar.
