Posted August 22, 2018 So I was scrolling through Twitter before and noticed that the branding on the LTT Twitter account had been updated with a new logo and header. I personally like it but judging by the replies people aren't a fan.

Posted August 22, 2018 Popular Post I can do better give me a min in PS Edit Fuck yea My text is actually centered. edit 2 that was a twitter banner, the alignment makes sense so the avatar doesn't cover it in mobile. .

Posted August 22, 2018 I mean, did they have to throw in the purple? The banner looks like something I could make in Canva.com in 10 minutes. If you ask me, they should do what Bitwit did and host a graphic design competition for ideas at least.

Posted August 22, 2018 I saw the 'LTT' in the logo immediately, it is such a nice composition. The color scheme I'm not such a fan of, but I'm sure the team has their reasons. The banner is quite modern too, although I'll admit I do miss the retro old-school banner a bit more. The orange boldness is what makes LTT, well, LTT. mechanical keyboard switches aficionado & hi-fi audio enthusiast switch reviews • how i lube mx-style keyboard switches Link to comment https://linustechtips.com/topic/963168-new-ltt-branding/#findComment-11671460 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 22, 2018 I get where they were going with this though - very warm colours, almost like a sunset. But I am in no way a professional graphic designer. My extend is cinema 4d lol.

I have the same opinion, lowercase was sweet and inviting as a tech company.

Posted August 22, 2018 The banner imo is kinda fine but the logo is a mess A good logo needs to be : 1. Simple (not "minimalistic" like people like to say nessesarly. but not overly complicated either.) 2. Recognisable 3. Able to stand the changing design eras/styles(edited) Edit : 4. NOT AMBIGUOUS <-sorta kinda very important the old one had all 3 the new one has nothing. if whoever made it is reading this sorry to be harsh, but otherwise you won't know the truth. ALSO : Other than the colors, the banner and the logo don't match. There's no recuring lines, no similarities other than the colorsand that's just not enough ~New~ BoomBerryPi project ! ~New~ new build log : http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/533392-build-log-the-scrap-simulator-x/?p=7078757 (5 screen flight sim for 620$ CAD)LTT Web Challenge is back ! go here : http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/448184-ltt-web-challenge-3-v21/#entry601004 Link to comment https://linustechtips.com/topic/963168-new-ltt-branding/#findComment-11671481 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted August 22, 2018 I like the banner, but the logo is way to busy. I prefer the old branding over this. This simply isn't the kind of work I'd expect from a professional graphic designer. Just my opinion though, it couls be what the LTT guys were going for.
