I don't love the gradient.. I find it tough when moving to Black and White.
Or can you post what you think a Black and White would look like?

Entry #17 is clean design. Different options with the bird maybe? Smaller, different placement perhaps. Different font?

update entries #24 and #25, thanks for your feedback. let me know if you need a change.

thanks

#25/#27 - can we try the bird inside of the O?

okay
