Presenting the new Neowin Logo


Recommended Posts

Please don't take an offense to this...

But what is wrong with the current one? It is basically the current logo with a basic bevel on it, which does not fit imo. Why not just cleanup the current logo instead of doing a new one?

Strikes me as that as well. This is the first I've seen of it and it seems like the shape has just been recreated and a little too much of the classic bevel/emboss property in PS (not that I'm saying that was used). I just wonder what it'd look like if it was a bit more subtle and smooth. I don't get the whole out of focus thing either, a larger size for show shouldn't cause that if it was made large enough :/

i was thinking the same. it seems like the bevel and emboss filter was overdone in here. IMO looks...oldschool.

but hey who am i to judge, its what the admins like that matters i suppose.

Ack, I'm one of the few who aren't keen on the new logo!

:unsure:  :unsure:

Oh well, as long as it pleases the rest of the community! (Y)

Yeah, We seem to be in the minority. But when I see strong bevels I just thing of AOL homepages, "LOLZ" and photoshop tutorials. Stuff like this comes to mind.

lmao... would less/smoother bevel make you happier (this is a design that wasn't used)?

Anyway, let's put it all this way. I showed a lot of different logos to Steve, and this is the one he really likes (the current one, not the one I attached). When put in the design, it looks very nice... ;)

Just messing around, maybe keep the original look, just make it not look so outdated (gradient wise.)

I like this one a lot. :) The extra stripe is (Y)

By the way, is the Neowin logo supposed to be reminiscent of the NURV logo from Antitrust?

Oh yeah, I like Timan's a LOT more. The first one though. I don't really like the stripe in the middle, no reason for it really. The first one you did is damn sexy Timan. I'd love to see that on Neowin daily :)

Timan's is nice and all, but it just wouldn't fit in Neowin4. Anyways, this isn't a "what do you think of this logo" thread, this is the logo. :p Those who really like Timans will unfortunately end up disappointed.

And will fortunatly be able to switch back to older skins :yes:. It's just an opinion of course, but if that's what all of Neowin4 is going to look like, then there is no way in hell I'll use it. Way to big and fancy. No offense, but it kind of looks like it was designed by a little 12 year old who just learned how to use all the Photoshop filters.

Again, that's just me, though it is unfortunate to hear you say with such authority that it IS the logo, no matter what we (the people who visit the site, and some of us, the people that help pay for the site) think.

Either way, I don't give a rat's ass what it looks like, I just visit the site for the site.

    • This got me thinking, would you rather a self driving car prioritise protecting its passengers or everyone else? I'd choose the one that keeps me and my kids safest. At some point, these cars have to make those choices already, don't they? Wonder if we have a way to find out what way they lean.
    • The proportion (or number of iterations) has nothing to with this aspect of Copyright I am describing. In short, it doesn't matter how many times the manager tells you to change something or how. Your work product is always YOURS until and unless you then assign that to the person representing the client/company, usually for financial compensation -- either in salary or as a subcontract work for hire payment. if iterations determined copyright, then businesses would have learned to just keep making changes until they could claim they owned the copyright, without having to compensate the artist for their work. And that would be BAD. The only place where the amount of changes does have a role is in how much does a human modify a previous public domain work (from any source) before it is considered fair use or their own work, etc. For example, if a human makes substantial changes to a public domain (re: AI, by definition) work, then they can then claim that derivative work as their own...but NEVER the original version, of course. That's why anyone can make a movie about Dracula, for example, as long as it is based on the public domain novel, but not if they take new ideas from copyrighted movies made afterwards. As one of the people who personally advised the US Copyright Office on their recent ruling on these very issues, be assured that I specifically used the terminology precisely -- though I made it simple enough for laymen to understand it. If I made this confusing by doing so, I apologize. But, to be clear regarding your assumption that I would agree to your second statement that I quoted above -- the answer is NO. If AI does the work, no matter how much "direction" you give it, it cannot be copyrighted. All AI generated content is in the Public Domain and therefore the copyright cannot be assigned to ANYONE, even you -- until and unless substantial modifications are made to it BY A HUMAN BEING (yourself or a contracted artist/writer/etc.) and then that copyright on the derivative work is legally (in writing) transferred to you. This is a critical distinction. And it is important that people, especially AI sloppers, understand this. For example, YouTube is not paying AI slop generators for the copyright, etc. of their AI slop. What YouTube is doing is sharing AD REVENUE for permission to publish your AI slop. Copyright/ownership/rights never come into it. Importantly, that means that anyone can copy any AI slopware on YouTube, etc. and rehost it anywhere they want, even back on YouTube, and there is nothing legal that YouTube can do about it with regards to copyright protections, ownership, DMCA, etc. Anyone is legally free to use any AI slopware in any way they want. When this ruling was pending, I warned Disney legal of all of this before they did their OpenAI deal -- that it would literally dilute their entire IP portfolio forever. They ignored that warning for the PR and stock bump. But that is why, when the ruling came down last year, Disney quickly extricated themselves from that OpenAI deal, even eating the initial upfront fees -- followed closely by OpenAI ending their entire AI video generating business model. They adjusted their PR release dates to make this less obvious to shareholders, of course. Phew. I hope that this clears up the key distinctions for you and anyone reading. If you have any additional questions or even hypotheticals about AI and Copyright, please feel free to ask.
