To be honest, I’m not feeling the flava of this lot… I kind of don’t mind #47 too much (but VAG Rounded + grads: just say no, kids). #44’s a bit nautical, it looks a bit like those ‘stay out of the water’ flags on the beach.
The signpost (#49) idea’s the best of the bunch (but I still think it’s going to be oh so weak when it’s used small on the web).
Shame no-one’s developed the badger idea… if only I could find some time…
Biting my nails to see which is the winning entry

I find only #48 to be of any worthwhile interest, but the green isn’t a pretty green, imo.

#51 is pretty nice, #50 is kinda not very easy to read…

Of this batch: #41 works for me. I think the colours, they’re a bit different. The asterisk symbol is neat too. For some reason it makes me think of Adobe Illustrator, though.

46. Brown and blue? Again, not bad, shame about the colours.

I think the earlier batches were better, but not bad. Nothing really stands out to me. I was just reading the discussion about design cliches on Speak Up and notice a lot of those showing up in these logos.

Definitely #51. I think it’s my favorite of all that have been shown so far. Nice colors, good type, clean and simple.

#53 looks like clip art, I hope it’s a p*ss take?
# Peter G. responded on 25th June 2005 with...
With a little work, #54 stands out as the winner. Great work on the logomark, unless of course you think the carets are clichª.

You couldn’t use #58 for copyright reasons - the London Underground would be all over you. I once made a site map that looked like the Underground map and they demanded we take it down immediately.

#53`s Ruuuulllzz.
Simple, yeah a little old fashion but it`s a killer :)))
