Daniel, JesusOmar, Brian, Ahmed, Kinam,
Thanks very much for your votes.
Plamen,
There are some great blogs on the list, and for even more, have a look at my list of the top 50 graphic design blogs.
Harris,
You’ve missed the point. This is a competition for blog logos. Some of my other readers submitted entries that I had to leave out. Brian, for instance, who has already left a vote above, commented very graciously, knowing his logo didn’t make the short-list, and his logo is shown on a blog.

Harris
And the site will be a blog.
The rules stated: The only requirement is that entrants must have their logo displayed on their blog header between February and April 2008.
It will be displayed there at some point.
Even if you don’t think I qualify since my site has not launched, I still think those are very poor logos.

Hmm…tough one. Some really clever ones here.
My #3 choice goes to…Sketchy. Simple, to the point, and hey! A duck!
#2…Just Creative Design. I’m a sucker for pencils
#1…typoblog. Wonderfully simple yet high-concept.

My vote would have to definitely go for Just Creative Design! ;)
Thanks everyone for the votes for Just Creative Design, much appreciated!
Brandberry would get my other vote, as it is very strong just by itself, very memorable and describable working in monochrome too, however it does remind me alot of Pacha.

This has more worthy mentions unlike the last lot.
my favs are:
BrandBerry
Design Shack
eldesign
Eshark Design – Bit confused on the choice of their icon though – would have expected it to be a ‘shark’.

Jermayn,
I agree with you that the design category nominations hold a stronger line-up than the business blogs. You’d expect that really.
It’ll be interesting to see how the other categories compare.
Thanks very much for all the votes so far.

I think the Bionic Creative logo is good. Not a lot of people can get outlines right. This one’s perfectly used.

Regan
1st choice – JCD
nomad-one is a close second. I’m not one for the holistic aspect but that’s besides the point. I really like its design and how it’s integrated into their header and introductory banner.

I like typoblog because they went looking for the limit of what is readable. Therefore it is not so random. Next is New Work for it’s simple yet effective logo. Third is Fubiz, because the typography is well done and the pink line falls exactly in to place.

Dean Loh
A good design is not just something looks good — it must be functional.
For that matter I vote for BIONIC – The color and shape fit almost any background. You can slap this logo on any surface and it will still look good. You can even make it into fridge magnet!

Interesting how most of the votes for particular come in waves.
Unfortunately, these comment threads are turning more into polls to be spammed rather than a place to discuss the merits of the individual marks.

I don’t like logos that try too hard. I think Bionic has got it right in the way they have taken a simple font and designed it sufficiently to qualify as a wordmark. The treatment conveys the essence of bionic without being too literal or nondescript. For great use of semiotics to make this mark come to life, Bionic has my vote.

1. Brand Berry – Caught my eye from the pack, and I know I’ll not forget it easily. Nice work.
2. Just Creative Design – I just had to give support to Jacob.
3. New Work – You’d nearly miss the simplicity of its craft, which is why I like it.

I think some of these logos look really good. I especially like the Robert F Russo logo as it is simple and i like the colours used. When i design a logo i always try to make it simple and try only to use 2 or 3 colours and put in a symbol or something so that way you dont always have to use the type.
