I could lose a lot of faith in this coin if 17/18 doesn't win. We have a great dev and community, but this is our initial image to everyone. We can look like another "fun", doge type coin or a professional coin.
We have a fun growing community, and that's where the fun should be. The face of our currency should always look professional. Not trying to put any of the other designers down, I appreciate taking the time to make logos, but I wasn't even going to vote until the last one (17/18) was submitted.
