Thanks to all for your works and joining this contest. You are web designer and i try to create a helpful post giving you more feedback.
I begin replying to all saying that i'm absolutely open to new logo ideas and, what you find as contest description are only a "few tips". The only thing we're not interested at all are "pure logo web 2".
Our goal is to have something classical - innovative that gives you a "suggestion" that you're reading a serious tech magazine. Some tips are a logo that remind about software, tech review, ms windows, things that are interconnected with hi tech.
I had to remove some designs since i wanted to give a very clear idea of what i was searching for. The logos that have been removed are always "grade a" logos but they didn't "accomplish" what i was searching for.
If you need more help is here the link to the new template of the cms (work in progress)
I hope your reply is a positive reply (not a ironical one).. I wanted only to say that all logos are beautiful but i didn't find some of them "useful" in my context, maybe for other kind of news sites. I think this is the minimum i can say, all of the participants have worked with very nice concepts.
