While I think 3 looks best in itself, it's probably not a good 
candidate because of the low contrast; 1 is a bit too subtle and fine 
for a logo. I don't like the deviation of the leaf in no 6. And while 
the colors in 5 are indeed strong, it's actually my favourite (being 
the Haiku colors and all shiny).
I am not sure if I like the rounded lower edges in 2, at least it looks 
a bit random. But a monochrome logo like this does look good, too.

Absolutely :-)
