    That Michael Jackson logo is amazing! Sometimes it is the simplest concepts that end up the best.

    Very nice touch… Certainly a deserving winner… I do prefer the lochness logo myself but they are both very good…

    The Michael Jackson logo is the clear winner. It’s greatness lies with using the branding power of the ribbon. The Lochness and Arbeitskreis logos are equally impressive with great concepts behind them.

    The lochness one is very well done. I also like the MJ one as well. Very good execution on both of these.
