Contest 5 day Logo Contest, $60 + $15 optional blow me away-bonus

First off, I realise this is my first post but I've been lurking for quite a bit.. Figured I'd take the plunge and pay for the opportunity of posting constests, so here we go:

Contest:
Logo (vector based). It's going to be used on a website, stationary, and probably on clothing.

Timeframe:
5 Days (EXTENDED) closing time is Monday, Nov 25th 23:59 GMT

Payment:
$60 for the logo, $15 bonus if I'm really impressed (which, judging from entries into other contests, is pretty likely). Made through paypal. I reserve the right to cancel contest if the entries are truly horrible, but I think that is not likely at all.

For:
Rotterdamse Innovatie Fabriek, which means 'innovation factory' (based in Rotterdam, NL), we're going to be focussing on innovative consumer products, trying to make as much of our products in-house.

Notes:

- Either use Rotterdamse Innovatie Fabriek, RIFAB, or RiFab as basis for logo.
- Emphasis on typography, logo shouldnt be to 'busy'
- Black&White/Grayscale is preferred

- Something that incorporates 3D printing in some way, as we're doing a lot of it.
- Preferably flat design, i feel the age of pillow emboss is behind us.

If you have questions, let me know (don't break my PM box though!)

 

Feedback appreciated.

my try

 

sikka2010, I don't really like the font, not very easy to read.. maybe something a bit more simple? I do like how 'fabriek' is kind of nested in 'innovatie'.

DenisaFrisk, too playful, also I am unsure what to think of that UFO

rxzor, it's nice and simple, but I think I'd be able to make that myself.. like how it looks though.

pehulz, logoesdesign, khai budz, I like the gray/black combinations, and all look ok, but none of them are enough to make me want to close this contest right away.

@all: Thanks for the submissions so far, I'm sorry for taking a long time to respond, won't happen again

New Version,

 

Hi @ all, I want to firstly apologise, I did the math and realised it wasn't really handy to have the contest end somewhere in the weekend. That's why I'm extending the contest by a little bit, closing time is Monday, Nov 25th 23:59 GMT (greenwich mean time).

Furthermore, I am not really seeing what I'd really like.. Some are nice, but I am missing some creativity (if it's just a nice font and nothing else, I could have done it myself)
guideline, your design is nice and creative, kind of hard to read though, but I imagine making it harder to read would probably make it look less cool.
I've also received an entry through PM, which is actually quite nice. He's told me that he'd gladly post the design if it might turn out to be the winner.. I am not 100% sure if having people sending stuff through PM is in any way unfair to others, so if that is the case, please PM me if it is, and if so, why. Just trying to make sure I'm following the rules

 

feed back please
