This is by far the most creative list IMO. It was easy for me to pick the others but this one is hard.

De Ouro all the way
all the others I’ve seen before except for Magoo. Magoo is very creative, but I would not have known that is what it said if you hadn’t told me. It looks like there is an ‘ing’ on the end.

Yes, David, this has been an incredible journey through far-flung blogs! It’s actually amazing how few I’ve seen before, come to think of it.
I’d go in with the “most of these are fairly average” comment, but in personal blogs this is a bit more expected.
Regards,
Kelly

I actually looked at your blog on more than one occasion, but ultimately chose these logos ahead of yours. Thanks very much for submitting your logo however. I appreciate it.
Annie,
You’re very welcome for the inclusion. I hope all’s well, and good luck.
Trish,
I agree about the magooo logo. Legibility certainly isn’t a strong point there.
Kelly,
Glad you’re enjoying the showcases. I’m looking forward to getting feedback from the judges too.
To everyone else, thanks very much for taking the time to vote!

3) Somestyle. has personality…though I have to knock a few points off for not trying to make the two S and Es more unique.
2) Daring Fireball. Not the greatest logo by itself, but as part of the overall brand he’s developed, I think it works great.
1) Dooce. Simple, unique, and certainly identifiable in a crowd.

Very honored to be included in this list. Thanks to everyone who has voted for Random Jabber thus far.
Since it just wouldn’t be right for me to vote on my own logo, I’ve gotta give a vote to Dooce. Simple and elegant.

Hi David, here are my favorites:
1. Daring Fireball (might be influenced by the artciles from the blog)
2. Kristin Östblad (Design is perfectly reflecting the tagline ‘Fashion Photo Lifestyle’)

I don’t know if anyone agrees, but I found a few logos are small in text & clarity. base on doing what a logo should do, clear, brings out what it stands for, and excitement, here’s my pick.
1. SomeStyle
2. Kristin Östblad
To me, these two stands out among the others with different styles.
