    I would like to categorically state that I have NEVER seen that logo before and take any comment alluding to plagiarism extremely seriously. I have been a graphic designer for 23 years and also (ironically) am qualified in copyright law so this is something that I am very acutely passionate about - ad the first time this has happened. to be frank, there are many great aspects to 99 designs, but the blatant copying and lack of originality on this site has often made me seriously consider not entering contests.

    #105 was a development of the concept of a butterfly (pls check my initial submission) - and as the contest holder had also mentioned a floral aspect, combining 2 leaves into an abstract butterfly "shape" was how I developed this logo (let's face it, not ground-breaking or rocket science). when creating the icon, I initially had it vertically positioned, but felt it looked too much like a lotus flower, and it therefore lost the butterfly aspect - altering its angle tied in nicely with the butterfly theme.

    my colleague was here with me as I made the initial sketches in my visual diary, brainstormed keywords etc - before I even opened Illustrator and is more than willing to attest to how I arrived at the idea as she literally saw it take shape in its earliest form (pen and paper). the irony is, one of the reasons I deliberately avoid web and graphic design sites (apart from respected designers' article-writing) is to ensure creativity and as much originality as possible!

    I wanted to respond to this message here on the board so everyone can read my reply rather than PM.

    I have absolutely no issue with making any alterations on behalf of the CH if he is concerned regarding this submission.
