Following our partnership announcement with Youthnet and their database for the +U pilot application, we asked you what you thought of some of the logo designs our design centre had come up with. We were thrilled to see our Facebook wall filled with likes and comments on the three +U logo suggestions and we're also very eager to share the results now with you.

The results, counting together all the likes on the logo on our Facebook wall as well as on the logos in the photo album, are the following:

- Logo concept 1: Hug = 68 likes

- Logo concept 2: Superscript = 23 likes

- Logo concept 3: Bold shapes = 17 likes

So the logo which will be taken forward... is the "hug"! 

The colour scheme is still open for discussion so feel free to feedback on our Facebook page what you think of the different colour schemes. Below you can see a few options we've got on the table.

The hug logo attempts to bring across "the good feeling that is inherent in volunteering." This is shown by one arm of the plus symbol reaching round and "giving the 'u' a hug." The alternative way to look at it is the two elements interacting with each other in a 'buddy moment'. It's great to see that you felt that this personal, human touch on the logo was the most popular one amongst the community. We really want to emphasize the human element of this mobile application and focus on the voluteer using the application who is really the one making it all possible.

Thanks again for all your likes and comments, it was a great effort! Stay tuned for more opportunities for feedback on the +U application in the near future.
