Thanks for the feedback. They’re 6 logos, yes, but there is only one concept. We have 2 designers working with us all the time (they create templates, ads, web pages, a lot of cool stuff for us), however we wanted new fresh new look, and we wanted to give the chance to anyone out there to be able to compete and add their ideas to the pile. I don’t think that a good designer would make a better logo. There is a better chance, yes, however creativity can struck anyone and a contest like this would get the best out of many.

However, I guess you feel that $750 is to low for such a big deal. It’s not on purpose, just that we actually wanted to create a good reward, I guess not everybody feels the same. If it counts, we actually paid about $950 in order for the designer to get the $750, there are a few options that we paid to 99designs.com : bold, pinned, red, highlighted, tax, etc…

“Also, the one single fact that you’re going to create an identity for such a large web app family (almost 200,000 users now) with investments counting millions of $$, this single fact would make almost any designer want to win the prize.”
I also think it’s important to point out that plenty of large, successful companies respect talent and pay for professional design. They don’t expect designers to work on spec just because they carry a high profile. In fact, if they are wise, they don’t entrust that high profile to just anyone off the street.

Just somethings to things about….
