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.

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. 

muh specs 

Gaming and HTPC (reparations)- ASUS 1080, MSI X99A SLI Plus, 5820k- 4.5GHz @ 1.25v, asetek based 360mm AIO, RM 1000x, 16GB memory, 750D with front USB 2.0 replaced with 3.0  ports, 2 250GB 850 EVOs in Raid 0 (why not, only has games on it), some hard drives

Screens- Acer preditor XB241H (1080p, 144Hz Gsync), LG 1080p ultrawide, (all mounted) directly wired to TV in other room

Stuff- k70 with reds, steel series rival, g13, full desk covering mouse mat

All parts black

Workstation(desk)- 3770k, 970 reference, 16GB of some crucial memory, a motherboard of some kind I don't remember, Micomsoft SC-512N1-L/DVI, CM Storm Trooper (It's got a handle, can you handle that?), 240mm Asetek based AIO, Crucial M550 256GB (upgrade soon), some hard drives, disc drives, and hot swap bays

Screens- 3  ASUS VN248H-P IPS 1080p screens mounted on a stand, some old tv on the wall above it. 

Stuff- Epicgear defiant (solderless swappable switches), g600, moutned mic and other stuff. 

Laptop docking area- 2 1440p korean monitors mounted, one AHVA matte, one samsung PLS gloss (very annoying, yes). Trashy Razer blackwidow chroma...I mean like the J key doesn't click anymore. I got a model M i use on it to, but its time for a new keyboard. Some edgy Utechsmart mouse similar to g600. Hooked to laptop dock for both of my dell precision laptops. (not only docking area)

Shelf- i7-2600 non-k (has vt-d), 380t, some ASUS sandy itx board, intel quad nic. Currently hosts shared files, setting up as pfsense box in VM. Also acts as spare gaming PC with a 580 or whatever someone brings. Hooked into laptop dock area via usb switch

I like the banner. But I think there is too much going on in the logo.

It took me a while to realise that it actually said LTT, but I like the overall design they were going for, but i agree it's a bit too busy

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.

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.

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'm not a fan of the font that they chose for the banner, although it could be because it's all uppercase now rather than lowercase.

I have the same opinion, lowercase was sweet and inviting as a tech company. All uppercase makes it look somewhat corporate and to me, it makes it lose its original touch.

I think it's also the fact that they've added spaces. It just seems too wide now, the old one was very compact

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 colors
and that's just not enough

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.
