yea, I didn't care for the first one either... I was just brainstorming. I do think this one makes a really nice wordmark. works without the tagline and well in just one color.
sorry about that entry yesterday. I was reading your brief and went to work on an update for another contest. I uploaded it into yours by mistake. I've got some ideas for your contest though and I'll start on them this afternoon.
#4 yeah this is starting to move in the right direction. No worries about the other logo that was meant for another contest, I sort of figured that. Thanks for the submittal.
Hey, thanks for all the comments and the great feedback, even though I've completely missed the mark on your contest.
I have an idea... eliminate every entry I've submitted so far and I'll come back with something much more impressive. Sorry I haven't been able to do much here so far. I've just been involved in fighting for contests that I got in weeks before you launched yours. LT can be a rough place.
Actually I'll invite a few of my design peeps which will make this much more interesting. Keep in mind though we might get a little ugly amongst each other... but it's how we interact, and it is all about the spirit of the whole competition.
