Bit of a cheek maybe since I'm new around here but I really have taken an irrational dislike to it. I think it's becasue its a take off of another logo and so not original. When it was first used the joke was probably quite funny, but now...

It doesn't help that I've spent long minutes gazing at it while waiting for pages to load. Is Mumsnet always this slow?

it kinda looks like a louise bourgeois rorschach test

thingamajig · 14/07/2012 21:59

What is it supposed to be a take-off of?

WorraLiberty · 14/07/2012 22:00

I think AIBU should have it's own logo

3 women and a couple of trolls, with clumps of hair flying everywhere

Greybitch · 14/07/2012 22:00

The first time I saw it, I thought both the girl and the toddler were holding guns.

WorraLiberty · 14/07/2012 22:00

thingamajig, the Charlie's Angels logo.

Biscuit It's traditional. Don't change it. I've been here since 2002 or something and I react badly to change < heaves bosom>

Worra that is wrong, te AIBU logo should clearly be a nest of vipers!

thingamajig · 14/07/2012 22:03

Worra, thanks, I never knew that and I have been here 6 years.

Northlight, don't be scared! (but The First Rule of MN, Never Start a Thread in AIBU..) My pc is old and crap and we're on TalkTalk which is also crap, so I spend a lot of time waiting for pages to upload too. I tend to play SpiderSolitaire while waiting rather than gaze vacantly at the screen though.

NorksAreMessy · 14/07/2012 22:04

Should one of them be holding a moon cup, and another holding a Gregg's sausage roll?

TuftyFinch · 14/07/2012 22:04

They should have a 'design a new logo' competition. We could all draw lovely pictures, with nice neat colouring. MN could post them all and we choose a winner. Winner also gets a new car. And a dog.

I'm not fussed on it. I also hate that pic of the poor screaming todder trying to drag a com through her hair! I feel sorry for her.

Yanbu.

Good point Kayano Grin

maples, what on earth is wrong with the bottle? It represents....well bottle fed babies Lol.

Cremolafoam · 14/07/2012 22:07

Perhaps it should be a boob not a bottle

Cremolafoam · 14/07/2012 22:08

Those flares are a bit worrying now I've looked at it

Kayano · 14/07/2012 22:09

I like that there is a bottle because a lot of people do ff and we are ignored everywhere else nhs leaflets for example

Go bottle!

cheesesarnie · 14/07/2012 22:10

i love it. it is mn.

agree on cannibis leaf on Brew (for someone that doesn't call a cup of tea a brew, i have to look it up each time.

KissMyEmbroideryHoop · 14/07/2012 22:10

The bottle should be wine.

germyrabbit · 14/07/2012 22:14

i hate the screaming hair toddler too, brings back many bad memories of my mum chasing me with a hairbrush Grin

amillionyears · 14/07/2012 22:19

YANBU,its dated.

wildkat · 14/07/2012 22:19

I hid the logo with adblocker a while ago when there was all that silliness over the jubilee.- you've just reminded me, I hadn't even noticed it not being there since!

TroLoLoLo · 14/07/2012 22:30

YANBU, it's dated and a bit cheapo looking.
I think we need something more sparkly

AgentZigzag · 14/07/2012 22:34

What? Like some rainbows and a ticker saying how long till the next full moon TroL?
