This is very good and creative. Some points: the p and v should be different colors. I'm not so sure about the purple color for the outline. Is that a line under the letters or a shadow?
just a simple shadow, but i can remove it if it's not adding value in your eyes. i will work on the color changes and the "shine"... thanks for the quick feedback!
this one isn't so much outside of the box as it is in a whole different playground. ha. but i think it speaks to the simplicity you're trying to offer...
