The new version you sent is more simple, and I think it looks more like a
real logo.

Um, what is the connection between stars and the future? :-)
Don't answer, I know it's a matter of how you see it...

I think you misunderstood me. I mean it should be possible to make many
different *versions* of the logo that has different feelings. Look at the
logos already submitted to see what I mean.

If you included a starry background in your core logo design, it would have
to be a part of the logo in *all* the versions, and that would make it less
flexible. It would be more difficult to give the logo different "feelings"
when the stars always had to be there.

No, not all -  it was just a suggestion anyway. I think logos look more
dynamic and artistic when they are not being framed by a "boring"
rectangular (or square) frame.

As I said, this looks much more like an actual logo. Much more simple and
much more flexible. Very good, keep it up! :-)
