    I am definitely considering new entries. I saw a couple of designs I really liked and then istvan also came along, and someone else did another great one, so I see things are getting better.

    I must also say I was looking forward to something by Raghav and Jamess. The way I see it, there is a lot of talent here and still things get better. My only problem is I have to cope it from my wife: "See??? I told you so! You should have tried these guys at DP first."

    So I guess I will wait until Thursday which is when I will announce a winner (at my place it's already past midday Tuesday).

    Thanks for the effort Jamess. I really like that icon. Goes really well with my Pd in protein direct. But the font is not wide/bold enough for what I need. I am guessing if that icon (Pd) was next to a wide red and white wide/bold font it would suit my needs more.

    Also want to say thanks to the other submissions. I am home babysitting the junior so don't have much time to reply (this kid is a handfull), but I will try and reply later to every single submission (after the wife comes home).

    Thanks for the entry. They way you did it it looks nice. Unfortunately, because of the industry I am in, that logo is easily associated with a pill and I only sell powders.

    Again, I appreciate all your entries and I want to reply to everyone. This is a great design. My wife likes it a lot, but I will be the one deciding. I know I will get in trouble with not going with what my wife says, but it's somehow not what I was after. I think it is maybe too fancy for me.

    Mate let me say that no matter how many times I see your avatar it still cracks me up. I scroll through posts and I see your avatar and it makes me smile (even if I see it 20 times a day).

    Very good try. As always you come up with some great icons. Also thanks for paying attention to the instructions: "I made the body image more human-like and neutral." You're right, I did want something neutral. Although a very great and stylish logo, it's not as bold as what I want. One of the great parts of running this contest is you see a lot of talent. And it's only because I got a couple of bolder ones that suit my need more that I will have to pass yours this time.

    Thanks for the additional entry. Initially both my wife and my older kid liked your very first design best. The problem was it was a great design but didn't match my needs.

    This new one is better but too simple (even though I like simple). The tablet you placed at the top is a great idea but because of the industry I am in it won't work. I sell protein powders and they never come in tablets. Good thinking though.

    [QUOTE=retzseo;

    Thanks for the changes but it looks like a pill (medicine) which is easily identifiable in my industry. Again, I sell powders and not tablets/pills and that is why it won't go with my logo.

    I was after something very visible and red and white which is something you provided. I also wanted something bold which again is something you did. I also like the Pd icon. I am definitely considering it.

    Very nice, clean and stylish logo. I also like that icon. However, it's not visible enough for me. I was after something bold/wide font. My difficulty in choosing a logo is that I have to give priority to certain elements. I would love to have a highly visible, elegant, stylish, recognizable, etc logo. But the priority remains high visibility, and everything else comes second. Again, what I mean by high visibility is a bold/wide font. You know when you scroll down some fonts, the ones you notice (even if you're not a designer) are the bolder fonts. Which is mainly what I am after.

    I have to agree with swaymedia: there are a lot of great designs here.

    If i have to give you feedback on this, I have to say the same thing I said to tomeek: "Very nice, clean and stylish logo. I also like that icon. However, it's not visible enough for me. I was after something bold/wide font. My difficulty in choosing a logo is that I have to give priority to certain elements. I would love to have a highly visible, elegant, stylish, recognizable, etc logo. But the priority remains high visibility, and everything else comes second. Again, what I mean by high visibility is a bold/wide font. You know when you scroll down some fonts, the ones you notice (even if you're not a designer) are the bolder fonts. Which is mainly what I am after."

    I think the key (what's going to win it in my case) is the visibility (big/bold/wide font).
