designing a hanko

Hello, I'm trying to design a hanko for our martial arts school. The name given to the school was "budo okano". I have the kanji 武道岡野. I would use a square shape with four positions, starting from right-left, top-bottom. Is this the correct way? and more important, would this hanko be clear enough? as it is a school and not a person. If anyone has a good website to order this kind of hanko, I would appreciate it. Regards

thank you for your answer! No, I don't live in Japan, the hanko would be used to give certificates and documents a more authentic touch. I still want it to be as correct as possible though :p I made a hanko design jpeg myself, but I don't seem to find how to upload it in this message?

you can't post it directly. You'll have to upload it to a photo sharing site and then link back to it here.

Thanks, so I guess it's ok and authentic enough to use for our martial arts club? and more or less understandable for outsiders?The only thing I wondered was (as I cannot read/write japanese well)if you can just use the kanji of 'budo' and 'okano' after each other without any other kanji between them?

Yes, I think yours is enough to use, although the professional hanko makers may be able to make more beautiful one. In Japan, when I see this hanko someone used, if the color is red, I never feel something wrong. Maybe many Japanese can't read this "武" charactor, but it's not a problem for the "hanko".
If it's 社判(company hanko), the legal name is engraved there, "株式会社武道岡野" or something. But "武道岡野" is your school's name, so this hanko is not too much or too little. Excuse my poor English.
