The Q isnt clearly read as a Q, and that’s a problem. You need to look for other fonts. The idea of combining them is good, but the Q needs to be immediately recognizable as a Q. Some thicker font would work well with the slight beveling.
I’d like to see the box brought in a little more, It seems like wasted space between the letters and box edges.
I’m not sure what program you used to produce this logo, but it is very pixelated. Add some color. Right now this logo is very boring. (gray) I like the idea of incorporating the q and k. Why did you put it in a framed box? I think it would be a very nice mark on it’s own. Forget all the fancy affects, pick a color, drop the box, and get your pixelation problems fixed. Then you’ll a clean mark.
The idea is there. Ditch the frame and box. Use a solid color. Try this with other fonts or create your own custom letters. The Q is not reading as readily as it should. Logos should always be created in a vector program like Illustrator or Freehand. Never create logo artwork in a raster program like Photoshop.
A lot of potential…if you address the suggestions above. I would also suggest a different font, and like the other suggestions, make it a flat image. A strong design does not need a bunch of splash to make it successful. Remember some of the best designs ever made were done flat, before all this computer aided goo came along.
I like the idea of working with the two letters, q and k. I would suggest working with the q and the k without the frame or background. I think with the right font, positioning and color selection the q and the k could make a really excellent mark. Is there any reason you are working with non anti aliased text? Let us know how this turns out.

I think you’re definitely on the right track.
