This is a simple but yet very interesting design. The stroke below the text reminds me of a car somehow. If have now edited the contest brief so our slogan now is optional to add or not. I would like to see you add an icon to the logo. It could be a wordmark or an abstract mark. You have many good examples in your portfolio!
I have just ranked your new entries. I like the style of #53 more than #54. That said I think it is a good idea with the visible "T" in #55. But the style is not quite what we are looking for. The "exploded" style of the icon in #53 is better. It looks more stylish and modern. Try to tweak the colors. I like the blue of "NDY" from the gradient text. I would like to see you replace the orange with another color. Maybe blue and black/gray, blue/blue (darker blue) or even some white instead of the orange. If we chose to go with orange I think black and orange would be better than blue/orange.
Our new website has blue elements in it with a light gray background. Content pages are white.
Thank you for all the new designs. Think #78 is looking very good - maybe because the orange and black looks good together. As mentioned, our new website design has blue elements in it.
I would really like to see entry #74 with blue colors and the subtle gradient from #78.
#82 seems to be the best so far. Do you think it is possible to replace the "T" in "TRENDYBIL" with the icon? Otherwise I would like to se the icon to the left of the text. You could also try to replace the blue color in the icon with black and then let the "T" in the icon be plain white.
