One thing I would like to say is, my only reluctance on the part of some of the logos is that while they are quite beautiful, they have too many colors to know what they would look like as a small icon. I think a good example would be the Apple logo. You have the original version, which is quite simple, quite easy to render in many different media, but also quite amenable to stylization. Then you have the "modern" version, which is the same thing, but made to have a 3D appearance with some shiny reflections. I would be more likely to vote for entries that display some potential for such "dual use". Granted, we don't have the same marketing needs as Apple, par se, but something that would look good both in small, simple (i.e. "low color") contexts as well as hi-color, hi-res would fit the variety of contexts in which the Boost logo might find itself. What that means is that logos that have some very fine detail might look good at their original scale, but might lose their impact when scaled down. Logos that depend on extensive 3D shading for effect might also look good in a hi-color scenario, but would be more convincing if a low-color alternative were provided as well. Dave
