IT'S CHANGE, I HATE IT

Actually, I don't like the color much, but I didn't like the default color either, so that's a wash. I like the logo.

I like the image but I agree on the coloring. It just seems like...Carolina Blue.

I think they are trying to go for the B1G logo style.

Its more the brightness than the color as such ... I like my background colors to be satisfied in the background, and not competing for attention with the contents.

I'm guessing the shade of blue in the B1G logo is trying to find a color that does not represent any Big Ten school.

RE: Skin Installation Complete
I hate the B1G abbreviation! I don't want to see it anywhere. Get rid of it! I hate it. Hate it hate it hate it hate it.

Do not submit to this lame Big Ten marketing gimmick. It was an awful idea just like Leaders and Legends.

Now that I have thrown my 3-year old level tantrum, I need to mention, oh yeah, Get rid of the B1G abbreviation! Did I mention I hated it?

I think what the powers that be were going for was the logo B1G not the abbreviation everyone is ramming down our throats. I love the logo hate using it in written form.

I hate both the new logo and the new abbreviation.

I did like the old Big1T1en logo but understand why that does not work anymore.

I agree that the new one is not as cool as the old one, but it works for me.

It can't be "yellow-bellied and blue about it" because those are the colors of the School Up North ... same reason it couldn't be something so close to Tarheel blue if it was the ACC (which is beige and dark blue). Or that the background couldn't be that fine looking shade of red that they have in the AAC board.

I don't know if that garish blue in the background is the only "neutral, non Big Ten school shade of Blue" available ... but then again, between the Penn State blue through to the Illini blue, the Big Ten has got a good chunk of the darker blue slice of the color wheel covered up. Maybe it could be edged down in intensity by going more pastel, toward a paler blue, like the lighter shade of blue in the BTN logo.
