    Couple of quick comments before submission time ends....

    Quick note: all logos must have two versions, one against a black background, and the other against a white background. Most current logos seem to be fine but make sure the logo is works against both backgrounds.

    #31 #33 - like this idea. Instead of using the fast rewind symbol, can you instead use the 'play' symbol; a single triangle pointed in the other direction. Also can you upload a version against a plain black backround. You may need to change the colour of the headphone to white...

    #38 #39 - that is a lot better, the typography for 'city' is perfect. Not too keen on the gradients used on both (white/silver and silver/black). Can you instead use straight black and white for both the both the wording and the background colour.

    #40 - this is also excellent. Can you once again upload a version against a black background, so the skyline and the word should be in white. Also can you remove the image of the band and the starts etc? Having just the building should be fine.

    ARdes - all of the different configurations look great. #8 has a reflection underneath the symbol, can you include this for #23. For number #25, can you try including a small reflection under 'ampcity'?

    For #24 and #22, the symbol seems to be a bit distant from the wording, it doesn't gel together as well as the others. Can you try adding a reflection there somewhere? Or maybe changing the colour of the symbol to something lighter/white, so it gels with the word...

    Thanks all, this is going to be extremely hard to choose between the great designs !

    @ bazinga - I quite like #28 and #29. My only concern is that when the logo is resized to a much smaller size, the "City" will become illegible.

    Can you perhaps try having it spanning the bottom under "Amp" like before but this time use a font which looks less spread out and more bold. Previously, there was far too much space between the letters.

    Can you also use softer gradients for #29.

    Thank you guys for the new drafts...

    Everything with 3 stars shows promise and needs only a few tweaks to get them perfect.

    #8 - exactly what we are looking for! can you upload drafts using both black and white backgrounds as well? Also can you play around with the icon, placing it to the left of the 'ampcity' and making it a bit smaller.

    #10 - I like the idea of the EQ bars forming the skyline of a city, however the typograpghy is a bit too conservative for us. Needs to be bolder and more 'Web 2.0'?

    #12 - bit too bold for us. I like the EQ bars but the font is a too dramatic.

    #15 - smart and simple - it's a nice draft. We don't need the tagline however. Can you also play around with the font of 'city.' At the moment it is is too conservative and skinny, needs to be a bit stronger. Instead of variations in font, can you try two-tone (one half black the other white - with a black box around one in order to show up the white writing)

    #16 - bit too loud for us unfortunately, needs to be toned down a bit.

    @bazinga - really like this idea. Not a fan of the many thin, continuous EQ bars, maybe try using fewer, thicker, broken bars. Like those used in some of the other drafts. Also could you use black and white for the colours - eg white eq bars, back blackground, black 'ampcity' white background... and vice versa

    #19 - also an interesting concept, I like the 'p' and 'c' forming headphones. At the moment there is too much going on, try removing the eq bars from the 'y' and removing the join between the 'p' and the 'y'
    ... would leave a simple but smart logo I think.

    Thanks so much guys, keep them coming!

    Hi all,

    Thanks so far for the entries - getting towards what we are looking for.

    I like the font used for 'amp' in draft#1 , not so keen on the font for 'city.' Can you use the same font for the whole word? Play around with the colours as opposed to different fonts, maybe one half black, one white.

    #3 - too retro for us at the moment. We need a modern and slick logo - the font is too thin and elongated.

    I like where #4 is going - font looks decent and the eq bars on top are quite clean. Can you play around with the colours of the eq bar, maybe going from black through to silver or similar....

    sivathasaran - can you try puttting eq bars to the left of 'ampcity' (for both #1 and #4). Maybe 3 or 4 bars in total. Try also breaking them up into rectangles (search for eq bars on google to get an idea)

    Thanks so far, keep the submissions comming guys!!
