This is going to be a tough one for sure.
TributeK: I like your revisions, and your entries are very unique...the menu doesn't look right in your entry, though. Honestly though I am not sure if I like your approach because this is a logo design contest not a header design contest, but your entry is making me rethink whether or not I'd like a header or logo.
xaralee: I like your revision, but I am not sure how to describe what I want. I am not sure if the fonts are effective enough, I guess? I want the site name to really stick out, I want people to notice it, read it, and remember it. Yours really blends in [I guess?] and makes it not noticeable.

I am looking forward to more entries. Keep up the great work everyone.
