I like #349 (good font, good angle), but the position of "ed" is bad, because when looking at the logo, I now see "ed42" rather than "42ed."
#350 is cute, but too whimsical for us.
I would love to see someone use a 3d 42, but angled from the top, as if you are looking down from the top, front of the 42. What do you think?
Thanks for your continuing submissions, and keep trying!
