Don't know whos, is whos. I like the top ones FONT best because it flows very well. The U on the lower one looks like a W because of the tree. Just me saying what comes to mind, and disregarding my own by line.
Otherwise the quality is there in BOTH.

Gabby I appreciate the input how would you have done the (U) differently in the bottom one? Perhaps move the tree a little to the right or left to become part of the vertical lines for the "U". Tried that and client did not approve.

About the only thing I can think of would be to break the line of the U on either side of the Palm which would eliminate the W look. There is no accounting for taste you know. And I'm guessing now that Ray submitted the one I liked the best. Now that IS class! :)
LOL
The customer is always right, but not always "Bright"! ;D

Thanks Gabby..

Anytime, that's what old farts with too much time on their hands are good for, and not much else.
Of course I'm speaking for myself, and GB and RR and------------ LOL
