Thanks to everybody who submitted a design, we were blown away by the number and quality of the ideas. There were *numerous* designs that we would have been happy with, but our final choice came down to #108 and #69. We selected #108 because the open lock fits our tag line a bit better (Open Portfolio Management). Our open platform is what really sets us apart from our competition.
Thanks again!

A couple more comments (I hope it's ok with everybody that I keep refining the idea.):
* I like the idea of the graphic being partially integrated into the text (like #24)
* The simpler, the better for the icon. B&W with one color is much better than multiple colors and gradients. -

Some more overall feedback:
1. I don't like extreme gradients. (The subtle Web 2.0 two-tone look is still ok.)
2. No italics. -

Thanks for all the submissions guys. Some overall feedback:
1. I'm not loving the futuristic fonts.
2. The double-F's are interesting, but I'm hoping for something that ties the logo more to our market (finance or portfolio management). -
