Great stuff!

I vote for 11 and then 10. What's with all the bananas?

+1 for A & B. -1 for C.

-0.

How about the top 10 instead of the top 3. My concern is that
a favorite logo for the developers may not make it into the top X,
and given that we did the work, how do we ensure that logos we like
are in the list? Increasing the number would help ensure that.
