I am starting to build a new website and would like you to tell me which one of these Ten logos I built looks the best to you.

You should try keep them under 10, prefably under 5kb
my pick would be number 6, but arent to fond of animations as they do become annoying after a while

I'd go with nos. 7 or 10. Avoid animations for logos.
Also, with 7/10 try to make the important section highlighted a bit, so it wont look like one word. If "A1st" is important then maybe italicise or embolden it. If "USA" is important then do the same with it, or use a different color - I prefer this. And in my opinion, the ".COM" would be better off without caps (".com").

I would have to say that none of them actually do anything for me, but if I had to pick one I would also say number 6.

I'm moving this post to the site critique area. I'm not particularly fond of any single logo either, but if I had to choose I would go with number 7.

They are all stale looking, but #'s 5 and 6 would be good if they weren't animated. But if you wanted an animted logo, make it loop/repeat once or twice, otherwise like said above it can get really annoying.

I think that's a good thing actually...

I'm not too keen on any of them either. Too chunky and hard edged looking. The first bunch aren't anti-aliased which gives them that jaggedy look around the edges. The animated flags are just cheesy looking and the second set is just too blocky. You can't really read the title when it's set out as all one word like that.
The way you have the lettering set out in the first one is best. It's easier to read as A-1st, USA. What you should do is get a photograph of a flag and try setting the lettering on top of that. Also try a more interesting font.

I would like to see more options. If these were the only ones to choose from, I would pick 7, but with modifications.
• Take away the lines in the white area
• Add margin space on both sides of the text
• Emphasize the A1STUSA but not the .com
Hope that helps!

Sorry I'm also not too fond of them. As for a logo I'd suggest NOT using animation. When designing logos you have to think "will this work if printed?", and animations can't be printed.
Keep at it!
Good luck
