Contest 22$ Logo Design Contest

Hello talented people,
I'm looking for a creative and simple outline logo.

Brand Name: I Heart Hoops
Main Concept: The logo should incorporate the brand name using symbols (heart and basketball) as shown in the sketch.
Design Style: Simple, flat, and clean outline style.
Variants:

• A main logo
• A secondary variant that fits within a square shape (for social media profile pics, etc.).

Color Scheme: Black and white (open to other suggestions if it fits)

Reference Sketches (copy link into browser):
Below are the sketches created to illustrate the vision.
(feel free to add your own creative touch)

Thank you all so much for the entries! Here is my feedback
@Papacita Nice entry, however at the bottom of the heart shaped basketball there is a random added curve that basketball's don't have?

@pehulz I really like your entrie/s! I would really like to see the 'i' without the serifs and for the heart to be an outline, rather than filled in.

@getdomain4u Creative! I probably wasn't clear enough in my brief but I don't really want the words to be present in the logo

@Blkstrdst Great entry. I like the social media icon where the i and heart is inside the ball. However, I would like to see this, but have the ball straight, facing the front.

 

thank you for your feedbacks.
Here's the revisions

 

Thank you all once again for the amazing entries/revisions!

@pehulz This looks great! But somehow the "bumps" of the heart look off. Somehow not rounded enough? Also would love to see the whole logo black and white, for the "main logo" concept

@getdomain4u I really like your design for social media profile pic concept! Looks clean and creative

@Blkstrdst The bottom concept looks amazing, I really love it. However, I would really like to see it black and white. Also would love to see the main logo concept again but with the flat front facing basketball.

@SG10 Follows the brief quite well, but would prefer black and white and maybe thicker lines.

@Papacita Nice concept, but too much colour for me.

@BagusDesign I like the simplicity, but the dot for the "i" is coloured in and the rest isn't, it would probably look better if it was either fully hollow or fully filled.

 

ok, here's the revisions

 

A bit of retouch, based on your feedback; with black and white colors this time. Thanks.
