New NS logo?

I'm really new to NS, but I've noticed quite a few members complaining about the logo. (People that prefer the old one as well as people who don't like either.)
I basically just had the idea that a competition could be held to design a new logo. All the whizzes over in the Media & Arts forum would probably jump at the opportunity.
It could be decided by a site-wide vote or judge panel or whatever.
Is this never going to happen or does the idea have potential?
 
And what is this reason you speak of? I didn't like the new logo at first, but it's grown on me. I think it looks a lot cleaner and more professional than the previous.

I'd take the latter any day now.
 
so that it is a more recognizable N & S to increase traffic on the site and brand recognition. If you didnt know what to look for the old logo was kind of a mystery which is what made it cool.

The new logo is so blah. Anyone without any artistic ability or vision could have made it. The old logo was gold

any jerkoff could
 
The lines of the new logo are terrible. One side is a straight line and the other side is super curvy. It just doesnt flow. It looks like a stupid elephant head with a stupid long trunk and it stanks and i hate it
 
Anyone remember the very first logo? Can't post pics cause I'm on mobile, but it looked like graffiti
 
Hate to burst the bubble, while we're always open to see some fun new designs, we don't have any plans to change the logo any time soon
 
Yeah as Chris said, we're not going to be changing the logo anytime soon. One day the time may come and we'll gladly take suggestions, but for now I think its by far the best idea to stick with what we've got.

 
obviously there have been threads like this in the past, but i do prefer the original one. still have a little sticker stash of them :)
 
NO

crowdsourcing logos leads to bad designs and cheapening of the process. The current logo is great. The only reason people complained is because it was different.
 
the old logo was so classic i have no idea why it ever got replaced

the new logo is lame. i associate it with the stupid newschoolers jacket. oh and american eagle tee shirts:

if you guys could make like a 15th anniversary t-shirt and use the old logo but revise it so it doesn't look like it came out of a 90's dance club.

that'd be greeeaaaat thanks.
