Whoa... you sure about the robot? If it fits into some grand vision I'm sure there are creative people who can integrate it somehow.

I have attempted a chrome effect before and I feel without further training I won't match the pros. My designs are plain, and I like to merge text into the picture. I don't have good samples with me but here are two.

rather obscure, but the text reads to "pktw." if you like this style, yes I have one or two sketches in mind. If you'd like to blend some text in, the first letter maybe, I need to know that. Finally, if you want a vector file I probably won't be working fast -- because sadly I don't have AI. And I'm very unfamiliar with inkscape. What I'll end up doing is roughly tracing a paper sketch. You'd need to get somebody to smooth out the edges after that.

Nah, the robot's not neccessary. I don't need any words or letters in the logo, just a picture. I'd probably want a vector a file though. Well, don't worry about it if it's too much work. I'll probably end up using one of the pay services suggested in this page.
