o00o Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 they said this one can be reproduced better. they had some doodle competition about it and people where unable to draw the old one as it was to complex so they changed it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbpete Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 I thought the old one was a bit fussy and overdone. Simple is better for logos. That said I don't care at all. But yeah it did just change without me updating consciously, how they do dat? Google Chrome updates automatically. you can't turn this feature off. You can, it just needs a bit of registry shenanigans - http://www.chromium.org/administrators/turning-off-auto-updates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bitroast Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 looks ugly and out of place, imo. other ugly icons on my dock: cs5, adium. new chrome logo looks much better imo. and yeah, adium logo is the worst logo everrrr : P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lumpenprol Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 isn't the main problem with the new one that the colors remind you of microsoft? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joyrex Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 did everyone's chrome automatically change to this without downloading anything or is my computer retarded? As mentioned, Chrome auto-updates to keep you safe. I'm not fond of the new logo myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaosmachine Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 are people seriously complaining about the design of an icon not being a uniform style to the rest of their icons that just so happen to have been designed by numerous and completely separate graphic designers? plus it's ugly. the blue version is ok, but the big, flat chunks of desaturated red, green, and yellow just look terrible. oh, i think i figured out what really bothers me: the shadows are not logical, they're casting in three directions. it doesn't even have a consistent light source.

mcbpete Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 So should I use it, or just use the default chrome? Been using safari for too many years. Just use the proper regular builds, the nightly releases are mainly for beta testing/bug reporting purposes only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Coalbucket PI Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 I still have to switch back to Firefox occasionaly because Chrome doesn't believe in Soundcloud, that's my only problem. Also, those aren't neccesarily shadows on the logo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vertsk8er419 Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 soundcloud works great for me and i'm on chrome. also, who cares what the fuck icons look like in your iDock or whatever. this new one is more minimalist, less-detailed, which makes it use less space, pixels, money, or some other shit, all the big name companies are doing it.

o00o Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 I think it just takes a while. I was having issues with the new itunes logo too but now I prefer it to the old one: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GORDO Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 i noticed this a few weeks ago in a beta build, what drew my attention is that it is in a similar theme to the new IE logo. weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Spittal Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 The way the logo is casting shadows makes no sense? HOW MANY LIGHT SOURCES ARE THERE!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
