Wonderful!

The feedback I just received was that the logos in Message #'s 6, 10 and 12 are the current favorites. We would like to see more attempts in this same line of simple, professional design.

Correct me if I am wrong... Dont want anyone on the design team to get into trouble. But doesnt NBC Television owns copyright and trademark rights to the acronym "NBC"?

The NBC you're thinking of owns the trademark for this acronym in the industry of media. There would only be a conflict if a logo here resembled theirs. NBC (National Behavioral Consortium) is in a different industry and is thus not a conflict of interest.

A good recent example of this was the conflict between Apple (the Beatle's record label) and Apple (computers). In the past there was no conflict because one made computers and the other music, but once iTunes came out, Apple (recordings) has been trying to sue Apple (computers).

Great work everyone! We've decided which logo concepts to bring to our board for a vote.

Can we see the concepts presented in Message #'s 6, 10, 12, 30 and 31 in 4 different color variations each (with 1 of those 4 being the initial color presented)?

We'll take those 20 variations to our board for a vote before the end date on the contest. You may still submit new concepts if you'd like, but after we receive the variations requested above, I can't guarantee new logos will be included when the board votes.
