Thomas Antiques
An excellent site for an antiques seller. The use of neutral colours allows the slideshow of fascinating antiques to flourish. The central logo is perfect and makes a good statement. It\'s also worth noting that the site continues to fascinate as you move downwards - using antique photography and simple descriptive text.

A great design site that makes an instant impact! The use of colour is subtle but effective while the overall feel of the site really works. The Twitter, Facebook, and Blog links are great, as is the company logo!

Gravity
A bold black and white logo that even looks brilliant with the colours inverted! The clear readable typeface works well, while the use of the g helps the logo remain memorable. I really like the texture created by the dots and the way the fading of the background draws your eyes to the centre.

Kreeate
A great portfolio site that effectively uses coloured borders to grab your attention. The logo is simple but is recognisable and makes a good statement. I particularly like the fun central illustration.

Studio Pixel
A clean and clear website for a design site. The minimalist approach is effective and allows your attention to be drawn towards examples of the companies design work. The logo is recognisable and makes a statement and the sparse use of colour works really well.

Toasted Candy
A friendly logo for a software company. The toaster illustration is interesting and I like the slight difference in typeface between the word toasted and candy. The colour inversion works well but I prefer the cartoon-style logo on a white background.

Elegant Seagulls
A web design site with great potential. The Elegant Seagulls logo is beautiful and stands out from the rest of the site due to its hand-drawn nature. I particularly like the simple use of a border to frame the site and the typefaces used throughout.

Mangrove Energy
A relatively basic, but nonetheless clear, corporate logo. The natural palette is used effectively and the text is readable on first glance. The alignment of the text suits the logo well.

Yahoo! Sportacular
Yahoo! Sportacular for iPad is a great looking App for keeping up with all your favourite teams. The incorporation of team colours and logos is a nice touch while the overall layout works hard to give you all the information you could want in one place.

Swing
A brash and bold logo that effectively uses a single colour to make a statement. The typeface is interesting, if potentially a little difficult to read. As a logo for a candle company I appreciate the flame design that\'s been incorporated and find that it helps to make the trademark recognisable.

Visual Freaks
I love the artistic focal point of this site. The minimalism of the links and other aspects allow your attention to be drawn to the action! The logo is simple but works brilliantly!

Billy\'s Downtown Diner
A brilliant restaurant site with an active header that brings the street to life. The way the menu bar and logo use perspective to jump out at you is great! I also particularly like the use of colour set against a desaturated background.

Instant Rust
A stylish business card featuring a three colour design. The use of neutrals is good but adding a colour could further make an impact! I particularly like the repetitive use of the logo on the front of the card to create a textural design.

Moovents
A unrelentingly fascinating site! As you move about the page the colourful background artefacts ebb and flow beautifully. I love the use of the whole colour spectrum contrasted against the white background and the design of the logo.

Press Red Media
A logo design that makes a great impact. I like the cut out feel of the bird logo while the use of white on red works well. I particularly like the subtly custom typeface used for the company name.

Drop Design Studio
A simple but effective logo for a landscape architecture company. The use of the \'D\' within the main logo is very effective and memorable. The use of green fits well with the nature of the company and the typefaces are readable if not adventurous.

Wijmo
This site uses colours effectively to grab your attention and draw you down to the important information. I like the detail on the logo and the intuitive layout.

Stardom
A logo full of impact that is a good take on a well worn shape. The two colours work well on the neutral background while the broken nature of the star makes it recognisable. I particularly like the way the text has been arranged to fit within the bottom right corner of the star.
