Sorry Bjorn. I shouldn’t all out other artists. I’m pretty sure I was wrong anyway on my guess. I think I know who submitted the final two now. I won’t call them out though. I have repented.

I think the designs that are the easiest to read are 2, 5, 17, 20, 22, 40, 42 — either looking at the smaller images here on this page, or when clicking each image for viewing it at a larger size.

At first glance, and after a little examining, when taken from the point of view of “I am not yet familiar with this new product name that I am looking at,” I find these images hard to read: 9, 12, 16, 29, 30.

I see that a lot of designs incorporated turning the double E into the O, as I did with one of mine. A few were able to make both G inversions look similar enough for consistency. I like that in a design.

I think my favorite would be the one on the soda can, #5, especially if the two Gs were more similar. In fact, #5 makes me wish I had used the Greek Key pattern on my favorite of my submitted designs instead of a different entry. Of course, I felt I should list someone else’s design as my overall favorite. I don’t want to say “Pick Me Pick Me Pick Me!!!” … Though I would like it very much if one of mine were chosen. Then I’d offer to add the Greek Key pattern to it.

Hello!!!
I prefer ambrigram number 32 is very beautiful and esssential in his simplicity.
I think that his creator used very fantasy and immagination in this work.
My compliments to whoever yuo are…very good!!!! Bye

I tried to do a simple thing: I imagined to be in a shop and having to buy a bottle of this soda. So I have moved away by the monitor and I looked these logos from a distance (as if I were watching a shelf). To be honest only few of them are readable (recall that the logo will be very small in size on a bottle or a can). Particularly the only one very readable is number 32. Congratulations to the artist. Simple but efficacious!
