Can we see a "flatter" version of this logo (i.e. lose some of the reflective/gradated look - make it less "cartoonish")? Also, would like to see some more vivid colors (non-burnt orange and a possibly a truer cyan for the thought cloud) and possibly a non-italicized font (maybe at least for "OnLine"). Additionally, the logo should work both with and without the tagline depending upon its use.
I like the overall look better. However, I'm interested in seeing some color variations:
1) "Online" = bright/true orange, cloud color somewhere between cyan to blue where you think it is complementary to the orange, and lock part a gray tone to similate the silver/chrome of most locks
2) "Online" = bright/true orange, cloud and lock gray tones
