Thanks for your effort and entries! I'm having a hard time deciding which of your logos I like better: #27 (Polar Bear) or #25 (Snowman).
On #27 - I'd like to see the wording "Ho Ho Snow" a little clearer.
The problem with "Ho Ho" (in general / with your logos or any of the others by other designers) is that the letter "H" can look too similar to the letter "N" - especially if the lettering is kind of puffy. Maybe a solution would be to darken the outline around the letters (like in your #25). I just want to make sure the "H" is very clear. Also - there should be space between the two words "Ho Ho." (I see there is a little space already - maybe just a little bit more / maybe I'm being too picky!)
Also, I think the background is a little too dark. Maybe a little variation in the background, as the lighter glow-effect in the background - maybe something like Samuel Pires has done with #21 or Ilkay in
#2.
#21's glow appears in the top half.
#2's glow appears more left and bottom. My thought was a light glow around the logo instead.
I also think it would be better to have the hand moved off of the "O" - as I would like the logo not to be obstructed. Either the hand could be resting on the top/side or off completely.
Also - Regarding the "W" in "SNOW" - I'd like to see the bottom of the letter, instead of the little snow pile making the bottom of the letter. Also, maybe a little more snow on the ground, and a little bit (very little bit) more in the flurries.
Also - there is a single white dot (snowflake?) under the bear's arm, over the first "H" - I would like to see that removed.
