Presenting the new Neowin Logo


Recommended Posts

Hmm, pardon me for saying this, but maybe a just small teaser of the new design to help people visualize how the new official logo will fit.

I would think that we could definantly get a great Neowin 4 out if you guys build it with the large neowinian database of members that made you guys what you are today. For large communities like this, the website should be built with a say by the community, that way you will be able to get something out great.

BTW, OT: Will Neowin 4 have a custom CMS in place?

:)

I prefer the old logo, based seeing the two logo's side by side on a plain white bg...

Maybe i will prefer the new one when it is in it's place in the new design, but at the moment, not all that keen on it, i agree with StevoFC, it looks too beveled :)

I don't like it alot. It looks like an overuse of bevels, satins and shadows. Not professional at all. It looks like a step backwards than forwards.

Honestly, it looks like someone first playing with Photoshop made it. I was hoping Neowin improves with every version, but if this represents the quality of the next version, I would find it very hard to accept as an improvement.

I really think the logos should be changed to more professional, polished and attractive look; those to-be-official new logos are worse than the current one.

Those really look as if someone just played around with various filters and effects and accidentally achieved a satisfying look.

I don't care how well it might match with the rest of the layout, the truth remains that the logo of this amazing website is ugly and many seem to be neglecting the significance of the logo.

And the mods' comment that the new Neowin will match the logo worries me even more; does it mean that the rest of the website will be full of overused bevels and somewhat unrealistic shadows?

Not given my 2 Cents yet, so might aswell.

I think the current logo is nice, I think the new logo is nice, not like we spend more then 5 seconds looking at the logo anyway ;) So I don't know why so many of you are annoyed some even disgusted over the change.

Time to add that Milk to my Special K.

Took the words from my mouth.

Gotta say, i think it should have left till maybe late september to tease us though :p

Well... I have to be honest about this one, I don't like it a bit... :(

I don't like the bevel, satin and shadow. It makes it look very unsharp, and the fact that the N isn't centered in the surrounding "circle" makes it worse too. The glass look of the current logo is much better imo :)

I think ZZOOzzoo already said everything I wanted to say... :yes:

I really appreciate all the work you do for Neowin Flishfun, certainly no bad words for that. I also like your other designs, and that's why I'm dissapointed in the new logo, I know you can do much better!

Anyways, just needed to get that off my mind, hope I didn't offend anyone :)

A quick mock up using the same effects applied in that new logo by FlishFun. Surely not the best quality though it was not intended to be.. but my point is that it takes more than just applying a couple of effects and calling it a day.

These logo's can definitely not go unnoticed, that's great! Also, Timan's logo is very good as well :yes:

That looks great, it really catches the eye.

BOT:

C'mon guys, the majority of Neowin users that have posted in this thread do not like the new logo, and honestly, I can not see how it will fit in an interface that will make it look better. (Again, No Offense! This thread should not have been posted if none of the staff will look at any criticism we may have.

A non-democratic forum will only lead to one thing....... Revolution lol :p

You took the words out of my mouth. Also, why is it posted for "feedback" if its final and its not going to change regardless of what we say?

When did I say it was posted for feedback?

Title:? Presenting the new Neowin LogoSubtitle:>? Come feast your eyes!!

Not there...

[quotPost:b>? Okay everyone... I know you've been very anxious for the upcoming Neowin 4, and it's been a lot of hard work on all of us. Anyway, as a present for your patience, here is a sneak peak at the official new Neowin Logo:

All this hard work we've put into the development is planning to go site wide by October 1st (if not before) to celebrate Neowin's 5th anniversary.

Enjoy!!

For those who like the other themes, here it is in all the theme colors:

Not there, either.

Steve just wanted me to post it so everyone could see. That's all. No asking for feedback, it's not even implied. I don't mind people posting their opinions, since they haven't seen the final product. The only thing that bugs me, is people who say this isn't hard work. I've m tons /i>of versions of the logo and the new site, and it take lot /i>of my time to get it so that Steve (and the other Admins) like it.

While it might look unprofessional, people should know that I'm a bit better at making things than I may be given credit for... I'm working for the Administrators of Neowin. If they want a beveled black square, it's not my job to make a masterpiece, it's my job to make them their beveled black square. Some of my style is rubbing off on the site, but when is all said and done, it's still going to be what Steve (and the other Admins) think looks good. It's their vision, I'm just the one making it for them (and trust me, on some things, our visions and styles don't sync up, and I go with what they want). That's all.

Looking forward to Neowin v4.0. Have been waiting a while now. Looks good so far. Don't mind those who doesn't like it, it's nothing they can do about it. It's your work dammit. Deal with it people!

And that's why I didn't want to post here in the first place... I just posted my opinion, just like you posted yours :)

Don't hate me now :p

    • But the reality is it will work for people's needs, and they don't care about the technology that makes it. Clearly not everyone's needs, but that low end space where personal laptops were only used to type emails, watch content and browse websites, but they didn't want to do that on a small screen device. Heck, writing that out I can now see the connection and reason it'll do so well. Apple is about experience. If the experience is bad, they don't release it. Low end Windows laptop manufacturers up until this point have not taken that into consideration ever before, so slow laggy usage with brittle slimey plastic shells were common. I hope that the low end space at least creates better physical products that last a bit longer, and if Microsoft get their act together, they could also have a solid OS on such low end hardware that would actually make the experience work for what the hardware was intended for. The fact that the CPU is a "cellphone", sorry mobile phone processor is irrelevant. It's about the experience, and so far, that sounds quite solid.
    • Hello, Bonjour is Apple's implementation of a multicast-DNS service, which allows devices running Apple's software and/or hardware to find each other on your local network.  I believe the Windows version was last updated around 2010. If you do not need it, you can stop and disable the Bonjour service in the Services Control Manager (filename: SERVICES.MSC).  Once you have done that, the operating system will no longer attempt to load the service.

    • This AMD RX 9070 16GB GPU that performs close to Nvidia 5070 is under $600 by Sayan Sen With the memory shortage that's prevalent nowadays, discounts are super-hard to get. As such we post good deals whenever they pop up. Recently, we covered a few great discounts on SSDs wherein you can get a 4TB TeamGroup NVMe PCIe Gen4 drive for just $400 thanks to a special coupon. If you want a faster product but don't need all that capacity, you can also opt for Samsung's 990 PRO 2TB that is on sale for its lowest price in over three months. Let's say though that you are on the hunt for a 1440p gaming card. In that case AMD's RX 9070 non-XT can help, and with its 16GB VRAM, you can also run AI models locally without worrying about bottlenecking (check out our recent 9070 GRE reviews for gaming and productivity to get an idea). The PowerColor Reaper variant of the RX 9070 is currently on sale for just $580 which is a very good price in the current state of affairs (purchase link under the specs table down below). The Reaper cooler on this 9070 uses a triple‑fan design with ring‑blade fans, paired with premium dual ball bearings to extend lifespan and reduce friction. "Intelligent" fan control allows the fans to remain idle at lower temperatures, only spinning up when the GPU is under load. A nickel‑plated copper base makes direct contact with both the GPU and memory modules, helping to spread heat evenly. PowerColor also applies Honeywell PTM7950 phase‑change thermal interface material (TIM), which fills microscopic gaps between the die and heatsink for more efficient thermal transfer. The fan shroud is shorter in height as the firm has made it such that it can be used in certain SFF (small form factor) cases. The technical specifications of the Reaper RX 9070 are given in the table below: Specification Value Stream Processors 3584 Units Video Memory 16GB GDDR6 Memory Speed 20.0 Gbps Memory Interface 256-bit Engine Clock Game Clock: up to 2070 MHz Boost Clock: up to 2520 MHz Bus Standard PCI Express 5.0 x16 Display Connectors 1 x HDMI 2.1b, 3 x DisplayPort 2.1a Maximum Resolution DisplayPort: 7680 × 4320 HDMI: 7680 × 4320 Board Dimensions 289mm × 111mm × 41mm 304mm × 127mm × 42mm (with bracket) Slot 2 Minimum System Power Requirement 600W Power Connectors Two 8-pin PCI Express Get the PowerColor Reaper RX 9070 at the links below (you get only a 90-day warranty on Woot): PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $579.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $700) PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $559.99 (Sold and Shipped by Woot US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Are they marketed as an entry into astronomy or astrophotography? I do astrophotography. With big rigs, lots of computers, cables and headaches. I love it. And by learning this ridiculously complex hobby, I’ve learned about the objects I’m shooting. Astronomy followed from photography.
    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows by Usama Jawad A couple of days ago, we reported that the latest Patch Tuesday update has seemingly resulted in a lot of issues for many users, including OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, and BSODs. Although Microsoft is yet to acknowledge these bugs, it has confirmed another, relatively smaller issue across all supported versions of Windows. In an update on its Windows Release Health Dashboard, Microsoft has confirmed that after installing June's Patch Tuesday update (KB5094126), you'll experience unexpected behavior when leveraging Recycle Bin. Basically, when you attempt to delete an item from the Recycle Bin, the confirm dialog will show you the internal file name of that content rather than the actual name. For example, the file may be named abc.png, but the confirm dialog will ask if you're sure that you want to permanently delete $Rxxxxx.png from the Recycle Bin. This is pretty much it for the scope of the bug itself; it just displays the wrong name in the confirm dialog. The correct name will be shown in the list view of the Recycle Bin and if you restore the file, it will return with the correct name as well. This issue affects pretty much all supported versions of Windows client and server, including: Client: Windows 11, version 26H1; Windows 11, version 25H2; Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 Server: Windows Server 2025; Windows Server 2022; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server 2016; Windows Server 2012 R2; Windows Server 2012 As things currently stand, Microsoft is working on a concrete solution that will be released in a "future" Windows update. It remains to be seen if the firm will wait till the next Patch Tuesday or roll out an out-of-band (OOB) fix. The good news is that commercial customers can deploy a workaround right now, but they will have to reach out to Microsoft Support for Business for additional details.
