It looks very out of place in general. I loved the old icon because it was realistic, and went on well with the rest of Vista/7/Mac OSX icons.

I love minimalism but to an extent, especially when it begins not to match the whole rest of the environment (N)

I know everyone loves it, and while I love Chrome, I hate the new icon! Noticed it this morning and thought I was going crazy because I couldn't stop staring at it wondering why it bothered me so much.

So there, I said it. Looks nice with Chromium and Canary, but not Chrome in my opinion. Sorry to be the downer but... (N)

I like it. The old one was way too glossy like something rendered with the unreal engine with bloom on full blast.

Yeah but they went to the other extreme with this one, it looks like someone threw it together in 3 minutes using the custom shape tool, and it looks horrific at smaller sizes, they didn't even try and make it look good at the win7 superbar size, as you go smaller you need a sharper looking icon. This looks like they did nothing but resize it. The old Icon was a little over glossed/beveled, but this is just awful lol.

I like the new logo after seeing it for the first time a few seconds ago on my own install. Before the icon popped up onto my Superbar I had no idea they were going to overhaul the logo until I found this thread. Like I said, I do like the new logo but I do not like the smaller version of it in the Superbar. The white circle around the blue ball needs more anti-aliasing IMO.

It's neat that the hover colour for the Superbar item has changed from yellow/orange into red.

For whatever reason, the icon on the taskbar is not updating for me even though I have the latest dev build installed and the install files show the new icon.

Edit: I give up...even reinstalling it still puts the old icon in the taskbar.

^Lol. Yeah, it does share similarities :p

Are you sure that you're using the dev-builds? The regular version of Chrome doesn't have the icon yet as far as I know.

    • Ridiculous claim that the labor cost difference of $6000 annually would increase cost per phone by $200. The employees produce 3 phones per month or what?

    • And I just bought a seat cushion for my mesh chair. The chair feels nice but the first time I sat in it with boxers, I realized I don't like the feel of mesh on my legs. 😂
