The power button one is clever and the best.


If you want one as per your original example picture, umxca's are the best.

I'm sure this has been answered but why in the world did you change your name to manlymatt?

I agree with the majority here - the power-button style of alex is the best. However, it could use some work, as frankly, with the long-style, I'm not fond of the LLC text being above the name. But I like the play on the 1/0 power-button style, very subtle and definitely gets the concept across. And unique enough that it can be more easily recognized. Color scheme would be important, and I think will ultimately depend on personal taste and the website's color scheme. I like the blue design if it was tweaked some, and the color'd design, I like the boldness but I would use slightly different colors.

Serious organization. Our current website is www.bitvenue.com, but we hate the logo there.

If you know someone who can do a better job than these guys, we'd gladly pay (reasonably)

Check out my site in the sig.

Can I call you?

I like Alex's design MUCH better than umxca's. His are good, but IMO, his 1 looks more like a 7. Too much "top."

Alex's might be enhanced a bit by use of a contrasting border around things, perhaps one of the actual logo colors, perhaps something completely different.

But alex's logo comes in a very close second. Why do you like alex's better?

Alex's seems to be a great color to grab the eye, while following your original microsoft paint drawing. I like it better than your company's first place choice.

I wouldn't go that far only $50 + a $50 bonus was offered, not a lot of pros are jumping at that for a logo design....but the alex dudes were pretty on on and he put a lot more work into it than $100 buys.

If you read the beginning of this thread, I would have gladly paid much more for the right design.

I'm guessing he meant to say "shouldn't". He's an idiot though... don't steal other people's work, that's not cool.
