Thanks, this is actually loose ended rope/wire tied/spliced together. Visualize the first rope as the blue one and the other the red one, the splice point is the orange one. I can also use closed end instead of the open end...
#224 is interesting and can be considered, however, we'd like to see a more balanced design where the logo itself is a bit smaller and not as bold and loud as it is right now. It would be nice to see some variations of it with different color effects and combination, fonts and position of the logo.
#241 seems to have good potential as well. We will be reviewing it in detail tomorrow and get back to you with some feedback.
#225 is strong and meaningful but it does not seem and feel as original as the other ones. By just looking at it, we feel that we have seen it somewhere else before. It is lacking a bit of sophestication which makes it similar to some generic designs out there. We'd be ineterested in seeing an variation of it with more sophestication.
Thanks, instead of trying to remodel the other two entries you gave feedback in, I merged the style of both and took your feedback of new colours and styling including font changes to merge into this new design ideas I have...
However if you want me to lean and focus my updates on a particular design and style let me know...
