Twitter flips the bird, introduces new logo

I like it but it still doesn't work grew when shrunk down really small.
Twitter does usually use it small — like on your feed page you won't even notice it centered with the bevel on it.
 
Just for an easy visual comparison:

Nice upgrade. Getting rid of that weird clump of feathers on the head was a good move.
It's more refined. I like it. Hope it looks like this and not the sketched out/unfinished looking version in the OP.
 
"From now on, this bird will be the universally recognizable symbol of Twitter. (Twitter is the bird, the bird is Twitter)," said Doug Bowman, the company's creative director. "There’s no longer a need for text, bubbled typefaces, or a lowercase 't' to represent Twitter.".

So what they're saying is that the bird is the word?

...

I'm sorry.
 
I hate it when people are quoting someone and then put something in parentheses inside the quote. Did he stop mid-quote, kind of hide his mouth, and say, "Twitter is the bird, the bird is twitter!" all hush hush like?

Hmph. And get off my lawn!
 
I find it annoying that it isn't "leveled". Always point up like hat is kinda annoying and arrogant of the bird.

I don't feel like it is in the middle of the iOS icon, even if it probably is.

Otherwise, it still looks great!
 
I hear you the words you're saying, now share how you reached this month+ old thread to mention it!

edit: Damn you dLMN8R. Damn you hard.
I would wager he saw the new logo in the updated iOS app and searched to see if GAF had a thread about it.
 
If you're gonna change it then change it. It's still a fucking bird. "we uh... over... uh... overlapped some circles and uh... now the bird is singing I guess or something."
