The penguin is a little on the small side here and on the webiste. It's hard ot see what it is. I mean, yo ucan tell it's a penguin but can't make out what he's wearing very well. The dressed up penguin is a good idea here though. It also looks to me that the penguin has a bit too much shading and effects - try to simply him a bit so you can see what he is without all the extra effects. Good logos are usually very simple and clean.
For the typeface, I'm not sure that the basic typewriter type font is a good choice here... I'm not sure what to suggest though. It needs to be something that works better with the style of the penguin.
Not a bad job though - it's a good start.

Try drop shadow on the typeface to give it a little more dimension.

looks pretty ok, although at this size, the penguin looks a bit blotted, if your using this on a website, make it a bit larger. The main font looks pretty ok too, just make it a tad darker/deeper, and make the system text a little bigger.
This looks quite promising, but it will also depend on the type of business you're trying to portray. Maybe you can use the penguin as a site mascot, but make a separate corporate header logo for the site, which you can also use on your letterheads and envelopes, and other uses in the future...

Personally I would make the word 'system' the same size as the rest of the text. Because it's a light grey colour and very small it's really hard to read. Failing that, move the main text up a bit and increase the font size for the word system somewhat.

Ok, looks pretty fine now, you can try darkening the red and gray, then increase kerning of the bottom system text...
Ill try my version for you, and see if you like it...
Here it is...

Hi there! Is your logo already in vector graphics? It would look better if you could have the original LOGO where you have the full penguin image. Also include the word "SYSTEM" for better branding. Make the penguin image symetrical with the text font. Just a suggestion

I like the bust of the panguin, but for someone who sees it for the first time it would be hard to tell what it is. You could make it with the full panguin and remove the feet and lower belly (but keep the wing showing 100%). Then slide the "system" under the penguin and Islab, so it's centered, keeping the font the same size but using the islab font.
I don't know what font that is so you'll have to change it.

It looks nice but "Islab" should also be written in bluish or grayish but prominant shade for showing determination because such type of contrast usualy give a non determined look.
