One was created by a friend with design skills. The other was created by a design professional with a portfolio of work for some pretty big companies (Chase, Polo etc.).

The simple one was done by the professional, wasn't it? I can tell by all the subtleties in the design. For example, each dot over each letter represents a person, if you pay attention. Also, because the letters are closed together, it means the people are holding hands, or, "together". It's definitely the work of someone with an eye for design.

Don't want to respond yet, just in case it biases others' opinions.

I'd be surprised if the professional company designed the upper logo. It has a home-made feel to it and the lower one looks more polished.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

My bet is also that the simpler one was done by the professional.

I really hope the simple one was done by the professional, but neither would surprise me.
