3 looks good!

Not 2, it looks like ghost fingers reaching out!

I like 1. Simple, clean, smooth.

In 2 the overlaps are too contrasty and make it look like there are white dots.

3 looks like a corporate or bank logo. Some kind of metaphor for line-goes-up.

I had similar instincts about 3, but I do like it and it鈥檚 getting a surprising number of upvotes. At a small size I can see 1 being the most readable/recognizable and least visually confusing.

I鈥檓 going to ponder it for the weekend.

Can you try to give 3 the same treatment as 1? If it was a single shape without the layers it would put less emphasis on the up-and-to-the-right strokes.

icon 3 is the prettiest, icon 1 is probably the most recognizable. Icon 2 looks too much like three overlapping # 1鈥檚 instead of an m to me. Tough call between 1 and 3 but I would probably vote for 1.
