Hi Champ,
 love your idea. here is my idea for your logo.


Hope you like it.
my bitcoin address is 1DsMdkAKicqdYGK4LUi4uGka5AFQKWUgMW    

I can send you a print resolution version and finesse it a bit if you choose to go with it.

If I get a chance in my very busy schedule in the next few days, I'll be entering as well...

Top version is using simple font in order to allow good readability even when logo is heavily scaled down.
Middle version is using complex font as an additional way to obfuscate the name, besides unusual text direction.
Bottom version are just initials using complex font. Notice how letter A at it's bottom forms anonymous person head.

Vector format. All elements (text, black box, grey box) are on separate layers, all kinds of modifications are possible.

I asked to submit sketches by 2012-10-10, but if you submit it couple days later - not a problem. It is important to submit them before jury starts evaluation process. I'll leave a message when it happens (but for sure it will happen before 2012-10-17 as it is the hard deadline for money distribution).

PS: Thanks to participants for great ideas!

Here is my contribution in a larger and smaller size for comparison.


Just worked out the logo, and didn't try any typography for the name.

Collected ideas (and bitcoin addresses) so far:

Participant's address: 14wubKDrVbLcxfXjgtExCncxF2GPQKAnp9
Image:
Interpretation: Flipped "A" makes symmetry. It also means "Any". So the logo can be read as "Any Ads".
Participant's address: 1DsMdkAKicqdYGK4LUi4uGka5AFQKWUgMW
Image:
Interpretation: Censored fingerprints show that anonymous ads don't collect any personal data.
Participant's address: 1JZ2CTn9GfFzEtU73hb7fcf4XjkziTqbi1
Image:
Interpretation: Anonymous Ads on TV
Participant's address: 15HQFSGrEkHBPaRp2rcKsQEiW9GBYAsYiF

Interpretation: Sunglasses show that users don't reveal their personal data when use Anonymous Ads.
Participant's address: 1TimbojaydbZs1x5ptPVovsb9rATH3JSU
Image:
Interpretation: Slash breaks "A" in 2 pieces (the smaller one is the second "A" in "Anonymous Ads").
Participant's address: 171RZK2hizSbUm67q7y5XLRqyAg78FcUnN
Image:
Interpretation: 2 "A"s in 1 symbol
Participant's address: 15HQFSGrEkHBPaRp2rcKsQEiW9GBYAsYiF
Image:
Interpretation: Somebody anonymous (sponge bob? tooth? buzz lightyear?) is reading some ABC book (or some journal with Anonymous Ads?).

Someone wearing a hat hiding behind a newspaper while reading it at the same time (i.e. reading also the ads). Well, I think the sketch failed to convey the idea...

That's a good interpretation, I would merely add that the negative space creating a pseudo-hidden A represents the anonymity of Anonymous Ads while keeping the composition contained by the initial A.

I assume Elwar's idea was a joke as s/he didn't submit a graphical sketch and bitcoin address by the deadline.

Thanks for all participants! 6 btc paid out (see transaction 6affa9464bd0859fdf397d653e7b07dbcbaf18aa6f443120611b08818b629cdd).
