1. The use of the acronym as the logo is welcome, although we are not requiring this to be the way we go with the final logo.
2. The pallet chosen it good -- it has a contemporary and up to date feel without being to saturated like Web 1.0 pallets were using neon hues.
3. The incorporation of the dollar sign in the S is clever, although I feel like this might be "costing" me money rather than saving it. That is just a quick first impression.
4. The actual name of the organization gets lost.
5. The "strength" or established and credible feeling of this is a good direction.
#2 - after reviewing the submissions, I'm hoping that you can do a few variations of this that show the name more clearly or more strong. This approach is clean and simple and strong and still has potential. Thanks.
