2 looks like the Garden of EDEN
1 looks radiant like ROYALTY
2 looks more mature and is easier on the eye.
Anyway, everybody has his own opinion.
The banner already has a similar background, behind the O. Are you suggesting we delete the electric? It would be a very plain banner without anything on the right and the starburst stock image I used was the same size as the main logo pics I made, 380x380. The banner is 728x90. Not going to work. The stock pic has to be in the ballpark of ~728 wide to work it without losing resolution quality from stretching it.
OK, the banner is fine, the electric makes it look funky.
I think that logo 1 is better, because it radiates some power. I now go with 1
