I am glad you picked so quickly. I am also not a judge and I am glad I am not a judge. That is because I have narrowed it to these with very great difficulty. I still have some concerns with how hard it would be to make T-Shirts or other memorabilia with some of them. Artists also need to know that a reversal of a black <-> white or color shift should be a possibility for a logo on dark media (I really do prefer black t-shirts in the winter - they are warmer). Submission 6: Thomas Wittek: ---------------------------- The first is classic and elegant, and it may even be possible to reverse color it for black t-shirts (hey it gets cold in some parts of the world and I am cold right now). Submission 9: Daniel Huber: --------------------------- By all means the first - classic and elegant, but some concerns about the key colors on t-shirts, etc. Submission 14: Christian Javier ALVAREZ de Toledo: -------------------------------------------------- I think it is possible by making making the black letters and horns white and the white P (key) black, to put it on a dark / black background. I also like the small thumbnails. Submission 18: Tri Seprian Damayanto: ------------------------------------- I especially liked the elegant simplicity of the third sketch of the Gnu. Again, with a black to white reversal, it can go on a dark background. Submission 19: Andrey Alekseev & Sergey Lukyanov: ------------------------------------------------- Drop dead gorgeous but it is copyrighted already! Where is the Gnu Copyright? The reproducibility on pages may not come off as well as what is showing on the page. I think the richness of colors would be impossible on a T-Shirt. It doesn't stop me from liking it. Keep how hard it is do a print of it on various media in mind judges. We aren't working with a Microsoft budget. Submission 29: Arnfinn Sarau: ------------------------------ THE FIRST! But do it with just "Gnu-Privacy-Guard" or with "Gnu-Privacy-Guard OpenPGP compliant" or even omit that altogether if that is okay with Arnfinn. You could also use a lighter blue in the PG on dark backgrounds like black t-shirts. This one is not only easily done in various ways, but the four (that is a dark brown sliver between the light gold / dark gold) color design is easy to work with and looks beautiful. That doesn't mean the others aren't good, but a Logo should be simple, easily put on various media including t-shirts, etc. You have five nanoseconds (what the attention span of humans has been reduced to now) before people don't see it any more. I would like to express thanks to all of the submissions and the work the people did. Thanks for all of the fine efforts! Judges, remember that the logo will exist for a long time, so pick well. I gave what I liked in numerical, not preference order. It is after all the judges preferences that count. I just hope I gave them some helpful pointers. Consider it like the vote of one of audience members in a game contest. You still have to make the final decision.
