Logo contest: abPin

Welcome to LogoArena

Here are some helpful tips for getting the most out of your contest as it progresses.

1. Rank design entries daily, this will encourage participation. It is non-monetary means of showing appreciation for the Designers' hard work.
2. The more feedback you provide, the better results you will see (you can do so by clicking on the logo you want to give feedback to). It will also guide the designers in the right direction.
3. Over-use of "Not Interested" discourages participation.
4. Designers earn points for top 10 ranked designs. We recommend ranking different designers for top ranks, It encourages more participation.

The LogoArena design community wants you to get the best possible logo for your business.

Thanks for using LogoArena.

Nice that we have different directions in here. To win this race you may want to smartly integrate the calling / talking aspect in the logo. When you see the logo you should know it is about international calling or simply talking. Italy vs Philippines vs ... who's going to win? :)

We would like to see also with ".com" integrated somewhere. Thanks, It looks like team Italy is advancing :) Philippines I know you have cool ideas too :)

just a thought: maybe a visual trick to hint for a telephone handset.

we can have abpin.com (adding .com) if you need to balance a specific design.

Hint: abpin is a Pinless service. A pinless service is a service where NO PIN is needed. So someone look at the logo, the message if possible, should be: 1- this is a calling / talking service 2- this is a Pinless or NO pin is needed service

Thank you all for your submissions. I uploaded some logos that show the playfulness that I like. The game is ON :)

An explanation: This is a PINless ( wihout a pin ) service. You can call directly and you do not need to enter a PIN number which makes the service faster than entering a PIN a wait for verification. So if you can integrate beautifully this info in the logo that would make you a winner.

Uploading files is not working on this site, So here is a link to the kind of logos that we like.
