I am grateful for your efforts and you are doing a lot for KarmaCoin. But this logo is a great example of groupthink. I understand your point and I will drop the issue to keep the peace.
Thank you. It's a pleausre.
But the survey is the same thing my company did when we built brands for some of the biggest names in the world, though on a smaller scale. I'm only applying my experience to add value to Karmacoin. And, again, it's a pleasure
The initial design and brand imagery (old Karmacoin logo, wallet, etc) are examples where surveying your potential market (not "groupthink" by the way, that's something different) would have been useful. We may even be where Reddcoin is now.
But better late than never, I suppose.
Kosmost, I would say I am going to tip you so hard, but that wouldn't sound right.
You are Karmacoin. Keep it up!!

So we are just going to dump the elephant?
The logo designs with the elephant on them were the lowest-ranked designs overall in the polls. And I love elephants. I was at an elephant camp last week as a matter of fact.
We can certainly use them as part of graphics on our website (and perhaps subreddit) but we can't ignore polls for the logo design.
Another way to think of it:
Give people what we think they should have, surveys be dammed = 1/4 satoshi
Find out what people want and give it to them, continuously = 100-500 satoshi
Reddcoin also had a similar poll, last month: http://99designs.com/logo-design/contests/create-logo-reddcoin-cryptocurrency-seen-millions-286987
At the time of the logo contest they had 300 subscribers. Now's it's one month later and they have over 5,000(!)
I'm not saying there's a direct correlation between the logo and the subscriber numbers, but I'm sure it helps when we listen to what people want.

kosmost did what he said he would. let everyone compete for design. then let other vote for the best one.
he did not "not choose the elephant" , the community spoke and chose the current top rated design.

Coincidentally, a couple of weeks ago I recommended that we use a logo that looks like the old Pepsi logo, reminiscent of yin/yang symbolism. (Not because of meaning but because of aestheticism.)
while others wanted to go with an elephant image.
So now we have the best of both designs
Now let's get this bus moving!

What do you people have against elephants?
You must not see the two elephants in the logo.
Yes, if you look close enough you can see an abstract elephant. Not near as majestic as a more realistic representation.

As promised here are the final poll results for the contest*:
Within community total: 15 votes
#251 - total score: 4.0
#247 - total score: 3.8
#218 - total score: 3.6
#254 - total score: 3.2
#181 - total score: 3.1
#248 - total score: 2.7
#93 - total score: 2.1
#94 - total score: 2.0
Outside community total: 117 votes
#251 - total score: 3.75
#254 - total score: 3.75
#247 - total score: 3.65
#93 - total score: 3.6
#94 - total score: 3.45
#181 - total score: 3.4
#218 - total score: 2.8
#248 - total score: 2.7
(An additional 354 votes were received in the other polls that selected the finalists. Unfortunately, the previous top contender was disqualified for his submissions due to copyright concerns.)
To be certain about coloring, I am conducting one final poll of the winning logo. I will poll about 100 people, asking them which of the three logos would be best-suited for our purpose. If a particular color variation is much more preferred over our current logo color (#251) I will use that for the new website. If there are not significantly more people that prefer the other colors then I will not change it. I am also creating the website with the same colors in mind.
