    B&W logos - no matter how well designed they are, remind me of faxes, and photocopies. Personally, I hate 'em.

    you need both. black and white for black and white documents, and colored for everything else.

    depends on the context the logo is being used in, also what the logo is being used for.

    Hi,

    Both are required and impressive. A quality logo should hold the position as both colored and black & white. So that it matches in any background.

    They can be, depending on what the logo represents.

    Latest trends for a website's design is indeed black and white, however I believe colored logos look better.

    Good logos can standout without the need of color. Bad logos cannot.

    black and white logos emphasizes the design itself. so i think if you want it to be catchy you can add up colors for the logo.
