I can understand people not liking it, change is always going to be tough to accept. As I said in the other thread I think the biggest problem is the tail curving up, since people are used to seeing it curved down for 40+ years.
I really like the current logo we have and never thought a change was needed. However, change is happening and this "leak", whether it is real or not, is a pretty solid design. It isn't an artistic mess like the Marlins and it is a sleek modernization. Removing the helmet was a good move and I am actually a fan of changing the tail to curve up. If they are going to change the logo, at least it is something different.
I think the comments of "effeminate", "Sea World logo", "girly", etc. are just ridiculous in my opinion. I understand we all have different opinions of whether we like it or not, but those comments just seem drastic and an apparent attempt to grab attention by other members.
Whether you like it or "hate" it at this point, the fact is most of us will all grow to accept it and love it. I am sure the 1997 change was hard for some to accept at first.
