    #1 - I like that this design has a bit of "attitude", but it's a little bit on the spammy side to me

    #2 - I like that this is a clean design, but the design is too "techy" (I've seen this font on IT websites), and I'm not sure why there's a heart around the gas pump.

    #3 - This is an elegant design, but too elegant for the kind of website I'll be developing. I would like the logo to be more personal, more bold and representative of personal empowerment. Also, the logo should incorporate ".com" after the title.

    #4 - This design is the closest to what I'm looking for. The forward slanting of the text gives the sensation of moving forward (which makes me think of a car - very appropriate), and it uses the colors I specified. I also like the font used. The only thing that's missing is a sense of personal empowerment. I'd like site visitors to take one look at the logo and associate it with power, with taking control of their gas costs. Unfortunately, I don't have any suggestions for how to convey that in the logo!

    #5 - I like the clean lines of this design, but I don't like the fact that the URL is broken up into two lines (the statement "Hands off my gas!" is meant to be read all at once, and breaking it up into two lines might confuse site visitors). Also, it doesn't use the colors I specified.
