i really like the creativity used in logo #32 but is there a way to make the professor stick out more, but without overpowering the Joomla? cant wait to see it.

#29 i really like how he used the brown for the TV, and how he used the colors for the bottons on the tv, as well as the logo of Joomla on the tv screen. maybe make it so it looks like its an actual screen with some shading? try it out.

#20 i like how you did the dot com going upwards. i would like to see u put a big dot though in front of the com also i think the green TV is to much, try brown, or another color, . Its hard to chose i like them all ALOT

#36 looks awesome man looks alot better then the green tv, still not sure about this tv thou or the shading used on it. Try using a lighter brown, and try messing with other fonts, lets see how it comes out. Your on the right track.

The joomla logo may not be used - it is a copyrighted logo.

I just wanna point out to the staff of logotournament.com who has taken it UPON themselfs to determine if Joomla allows myself to use the joomla logo IN my logo...

please READ on following site...http://www.joomla.org/about-joomla/the-project/conditional-use-logos.html

#1 Your name or logo is larger or more prominent than the Joomla! logo or sticker.
#4There is no confusion created between your use and the Joomla! Project or Open Source Matters and no implication that the content of the surrounding materials is endorsed by the Joomla! Project or Open Source Matters.

so i believe it is logotournament who has inconvenienced myself and my logo designers.... would appreciate if you take off ur block for my logos so i may have them back in contest... thanks

The issue is Selling we are selling designs there for we cannot add the joomla icon period..if after the contest is over and you select a winner you then can add the joomla Icon but you will not legally be able to select a winner with a joomla icon because the designer would be selling the icon which is not permitted. hope that clarifies things.

My advice is not to go with traditional logos that every other joomla site is using rather come up with a cool design and add the joomla icon directly to your site...

however can we use the word "joomla' legally we'd be selling a name of an existing product and service...

Hi Sonehs,

My apologies for Ivan`s firmness. We do tend to approach IP issues with caution for the protection of all parties.

If you post in your contest that you accept responsibility for the inclusion of the Joomla in your logo, even though LogoTournament advises against it, I will have no problems reinstating those entries. Personally I feel that an open source organization isn`t out to get anyone legally, but we do want to be careful.

Email from Ivan 8:40am Today

Hi sonehs,

Please let me know when you have made the post Tyler mentioned. I will promptly reactivate the designs in question.

We are standing by.
