Wow.  And the third one redefines "flamboyant" (no, not the flaming one).
This is along the lines of what I've been trying, less the great scenery.  I think
something of this nature and design will be about as good as it gets.

Jee !!!!

I really like these.
It's so simple and yet so efficient.
These are very likely to be winners.

I bet that the one with the earth in the middle was inspired by Lightwave.

It does look like that doesn't it? I'll be putting out a new version of mine
(well, not really a new version, but rather I will be presenting it in new
ways. One is going to be a play on the Lightwave logo).

On second thought, it is probably a matter of presentation. I'd be interested
to see TonyB's in a similar setup.

On third thought, I agree. I tried Chris' script with a plain background. I find
it .......less interesting ( sorry for my bluntness).

But I guess that the strength of his source is that is can be inserted anywhere
you want and can easily reproduced and modified.

Besides, the background shows Chris's artistic talents.

Wow. Simple, accurate, and with these treatments, this is one I'd vote for,
too.

Oooh! Very nice, I really like this (these) one(s). Kinda reminds me of the
Lightwave logo. Would be hard pressed to say which of the ones here would be
my favourite.

Very nice, very clever. However (You didn't think you would get away without
a but, didn't you?!) it lacks the subtlety of proportions the eye logo has.
Very good concept - still needs some refining work.

Very nice!

Simple and flexible, and presented in interesting ways. It would be nice to
see a black and white version so we could see how it looks when presented in
it's most simple form.

Greetings,
