liking this - im wondering if we can try a version that combines the two.
i like the colors of and how close the letters are in entry #4, but not sure the circle works as the O
could we try having the circle outside of that line - at the end? or below? or to the side/down. most common usage of this logo will probably be 'long' versions in banners vs. 'tall' versions (if that makes sense)
one last thing i wanted to try on #12 - could we try putting the circle thing at the bottom right of the words? still with the partial circle (one piece missing) but just to the right and slightly below the line... love these!
