Presenting the new Neowin Logo

[FlishFun Veteran]

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.

Sorry to sound like that. lol It's coming down from a higher authority. :pinch:

Anyway, the whole site doesn't look like that. You'll just have to trust me when I say those who don't like the logo now, will probably like it when they see it in place. :)

Well, either way, I meant it to whoever made the definitive decision, even if it was Steve himself. I just think there isn't much point of posting bits and pieces of opinions don't matter. That said, most websites wouldn't ask either, so it's fine. I just don't think I will like it, but all that matters is that the person who runs the site likes it I guess right?

I think I may just go to stictly viewing the website in IE 7's RSS feed reader. That thing makes it look beautiful :)

either way i know it will look good , but looks of the site is not why i come here so often. ;)

cosmetics only make up about 10% of this site, the rest is in the quality of this community (Y)

I gotta be honest, I don't like the logo... The shape is nice, but the shape didn't change :p I think there is too much bevel, and it's very blurry... Really looks like a Photoshop product... I'd have done in in vector instead

I add another vote to Timan's first logo. I'm on the same side with Dazzla and other minorities that the new logo has too much bevel. I stand all for simplicity and cripse/clean look.

EDIT: seems like we're not minority anymore, more and more people dislike the new logo...

I believe ya...I can't wait to see the new revampe:yes: :yes:

and it's very blurry... Really looks like a Photoshop product... I'd have done in in vector instead

It'll be resized so the "bluriness" won't be so obtrusive.

I guess I also need to keep an open mind then, until I see the new site.

God Flish show us the site already!

Yeah, it's hard to imagine it, but it's being kept in the dark. Neobond originally wasn't going to reveal the logo till the end, either. For whatever reason, he just changed his mind this morning and told me "Post the logo to the masses!". :laugh:

well, you know ;) it's not like im gonna be like "omgz teh logoz is teh badzor suxorz im not visiting anymore." i could care less what it looks like, and i know Flish is putting some damn hard work into this, but folks here still like to complain.

After all it's not like one is gonna sit there for eons gawking at the logo anyways, i dont see why folks are throwing up a fart about it.

Once its finished your gonna be in the forums mostly anyways, stop complaining and deal with it (Y)

We generally refer to such as opinions. I don't recal (now I haven't read every page, so I may be wrong) anyone saying "I'm not visiting the site anymore if that's the logo". Rather we are sharing what we think about the new logo. You sound like you're making a bigger deal about it than just about anyone else is heh, we just are trying to give our suggestions, whether they will be used or not is entirely up to the staff.

Oh, and either way Flish, I thank you for the work you have done so far. I know the new site puts it a little more into place (though I haven't seen it anytime recently). Don't get me wrong, nothing against anyone, just stating my opinion. Good job either way :)

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

That one looks awesome :woot: :yes:

[shockz]

^ It looks weak, old, two tone, and unoriginal.

Were going for a new look... not the same.

No offense to Timan... you do go great work, but I don't think that logo works in this case.

Amazing work, I really like it. :)

[Timan Veteran]

Hey, that'd be neat for the "Apple" section.

[Andre]

Current one is much better.

Sorry, but that is basically what I think of the official new one(No Offense!), Timan's is very cool looking. :D

I too thought your Neowin logo was Aquaish. I like it, but from what we have seen from Flish's image, it probably wouldn't fit with what they are doing.

I imagine if you saw it within the full page design, as Flish has said, you lot would change your mind.

Not bad there n30w1n, but I am sure people, as well as me, will appreciate the new banner when it is in place with the whole package... :)

Yeah. Sorta like when your friend hates this band, and then they hear some song on the radio and they're like WOW THIS SONG IS GREAT and then you tell them that it's by that band they hate, and then all of a sudden they don't like the song anymore.

[pickleman]

i think im missing something because i dont see much of a difference

agreed. Subtle changes. Not sure it deserves 14 pages on the forum tho. But hey, it's all good.

Ditto :yes:

[Dr.Jones]

Ugh, the bevel and shadow look like they're done in old EyeCandy version... They look VERY amateurish. Nowhere on any professionally designed web site will you find such gross bevel on any graphics. I don't mean to insult the artist though..
