I would LOVE to buy a t-shirt and I think the logo is really great. I think an embroidered light blue on darker blue logo would be really awesome!

But seriously, you should now reconsider changing your name. I agree with Sammy. Now you should come up with a contest to rename your website.

Because if somebody can picture your heart/Mac logo in their head, but forgets the name of your website it will create a problem in the relation of the two.
Because...umm...there is no relation.

Hrmmm I think a previous comment about Rule #8 just might be right ...

Hmmm... perhaps the site should be called "iLAM" for I Love a Mac?

I don't get it, shouldn't the design be more related to the ideas of the site? Which is to cater for new Mac Users who just bought a Mac?

"I love a Mac" applies more generic to all mac users, new and old.

Yeah I second Rule #8.

Don't bend the rules to your own competition.

Rule #8 - Logo must not contain any previously copyrighted elements that would get us in trouble with their subsequent creator(s).

Many thanks to Brent and the rest of the judges. There were a ton of great entries for the contest. I'm pretty shocked my logo ended up being selected.

The new logo is definitely 'cute'. I think it does a good job conveying the feeling that new mac users do (or should) feel. Congrats to Christopher.

Hey brent, nice to see the contest was a success! The logo looks nice and fits well with the site design. You'll have to see if Christopher would be nice enough to review the AppleTV for iBAM :)

I'd buy a shirt but I wouldn't wear it anywhere near Steve Jobs.

Haha, like I'd ever be within 10 miles of Steve Jobs.

I think it's kinda cool on the b/w version how it doesn't have the bottom of the heart. I dunno, I think we can make it pretty cool.

I'd buy a shirt, but I have a there-can't-be-a-heart-on-it policy with myself. Seriously. :\

Are you kidding me, Brent? of course, it's a wicked idea. I will be the first to buy the shirt. :)
