I think the fans will get over it, and eventually embrace it. People just really, really don't like change. I've been dealing with something similar. I redesigned the logo for a magazine and consulted on the layout refresh. The initial negative feedback was overwhelming. I think this was due in part to the fact that they sprung the redesign on their audience (mostly conservative, aged 35–65) without warning, despite my suggestions to give people a heads up in advance that change was coming.
- agreed + note up there ^
but a sidenote to that: people love change - if what preceded it was bad.Peter - ...or just not interesting. Like this guy did: http://www.fastcompa…Peter

^ I think gramme summed it up. People are heavily resistant to any type of change.

Both suck, but the new one doesn't suck more than the old so I don't get what the problem is.
All football team logos are fucking terrible anyway, and we must have learned by now that the general public are fucking morons when it comes to logos and will just hate everything you put out.
- Yes, not like designers, who initially just loved the new designs newstoday then qbn put out respectively :)Peter

Lets just say that most people are not only resistant to change, but they're also wholeheartedely scared. AND, they're mostly cunts.
Mostly.

Rodney Richardson, designer of the new logo and founder of Mississippi-based RARE Design, brought to his first meeting with the Timbers a photo of the lush vegetation of Forest Park.

What, exactly, is wrong with this? It's not breathtaking, but it gets the job done? Why is everyone so livid about it in that video of the unveiling?
