wow you seem bitter. I like the new logo. It is in line with the trend toward more 'flat' looking designs.

- zachinglis 13y agoIt isn't flat as it's semi-3D. But even so, that's not a reason to feel it's good - that's just a reason to feel it's current-ish.
- cschmidt 13y agoIt has 3d bevels, if you look closely. That makes it look a bit dated, although just being flat to be trendy wouldn't be good either.

- anologwintermut 13y agoThe fact that you have to look closely is a problem. The details only barely show up on their website on my 13inch macbook and I at least am left semi-straining to actually resolve the logo completely. It looks to me like someone designed a logo with little regard to how it would be primely seen by non employees --- I'm sure it looks better on a giant sign out front.
- rfnslyr 13y agoIt's a straight up bad design. It's the logo of a massive company, there is no room for emotion or being "bitter". They have a lot of man power, and produced this, it's sub par. It's not pleasing to the eye, it's sharp and 3d-ish. You'd get something better by throwing $500 towards 99 designs. A logo should look great on a massive banner as well as my tiny retina screen. Right now, when it's smaller, the bevels and shadows/jaggedness of the logo are very off putting, not something I'm pleased to look at.
- gnarbarian 13y agoOK maybe you're right. Can you show me an objectively better one?
- carlosdp 13y agoAbout 5 of the "30 days of logos" ones.
- baddox 13y ago> It's a straight up bad design. No, design, and especially logo design, is extremely subjective. Don't pretend like it's not.
