It's cute, I'll give you that.

I think it suits, although, that header was the oldest graphic I've known that was still on the site after the redesign on the homepage...

Oh well, it was good while it lasted.

-However, Tom I think we should go back to those ugly user pages that used to be pop-ups with a solid black background. Those were just amazing.

Yeah I was wondering about whether Wall Artist could move to make room for the slogan on the far right... Dunno about bottom of search bar... Luis did a nice job with the artist credit on our Tumblr page, although I dunno if that would translate well here. Or if any of it would be worth it for the logo... HMMMMMMMM

Well, this is new and strange....
don't know if I like it yet or not. I'll probably grow to accept it.

Change scares me...

It's nice but it seems like it would belong on a children's website. I wish there were a way to change my view so I could see the previous one again.

Well.
I can tolerate the awkward tank, but the lack of the NG slogan is saddening.

It's a little strange seeing pixel art next to all the high res textures and graphics on the rest of the site.

Is that log going to replace the old tank in the pre-loader? Or can we have a pre-loader with the new logo in it?

I do like it, but the other logo is "Classic" , you just can't beat it. I tend to think chibi grounds when I see this no offense :P
I definitly do think that this optimized logo works better for the small scale, but I've just grown fond of the classic one honestly.

No... is that even possible with this PM system? I don't think it is.

I just noticed the list of people I've pmmed at the bottom of the inbox. Lots of old names I'd forgotten.

I wonder how they all are.

I don't like the rounding off the tank treads, nor the cartoony proportions of the dude on top. Overall, it makes NG much 'cuter' instead of bolder, IMO. If the old tank logo were there, even reduced in size, I think I'd actually really like it. Though maybe up-sizing the "NEWGROUNDS" part to be as tall as the tank would solve it for me?
