I'll judge the best one from Reaper and Tyla, as those appear to be the best entries:

Reaper[oV]: Top right logo: http://www.eastment.com/ov/sr/logos.htm

I liked this logo. It was one of the very few logos that actually met one of the most important requirements, minimalistic. It's simple and gets the message across, which is what it's supposed to do.

ï Style: 9/10
ï Clarity: 5/5
ï Cleanliness: 4/5

Overall: 18/20

Tyla: Bottom left logo: http://www.tyla.org.uk/SDLogos.htm

This was also very nice, and I liked the colours. However, it loses lots of pints in the clarity category for totally failing to mention mail order GAMES!

ï Style: 8/10
ï Clarity: 2/5
ï Cleanliness: 5/5

Overall: 15/20

SO THE WINNER IS: REAPER[OV]!

Well done to Phil, you now have a free DVD of your choice. Also well done to everyone else that entered. The standard was surprisingly high. Second place was Tyla, runners up were InsomniaoV (Luke) and Whooo Style (Andi).

Well Done Reaper, and unlucky Tyla.

All your logos were top notch, baic layout, but really stood out.

Thats my problem. I seem to make my logos to compact, and then they tend to look messy.

Im only using Paintbrush at the moment and I really want to get a decent program for graphic drawing.

What did you use to make the logos?
And how much does the program cost?

Thanks Alot.

Reaper used Photoshop. GO to Adobe.com and check out the price.

I used Fireworks and alot of downloaded fonts!! Though one was created in Illustrator due to a font handling problem in FW? The compression engine in FW is much better that that in PhotoShop!

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Turbonutter for donating his FAD to this comp. It showed true community spirit.

And also take the opportunity to ask other FAD winners to do the same. This forum never gets any winners as it is not mass appeal. I will certainly run one on the next FAD I win.

Cheers Turbo!
