It looks boring. The current logo is much better imo.

Idea for a Logo Change [Scratch 3.0]

this looks nice, but sometimes a logo isn't so much about whether it looks “modern enough” as opposed to whether it's recognizable to the general public. the reason big brands like nintendo, apple, and nike tend to stick with, more or less, the same logos over time, is that people recognize them. they've built up brand notoriety over time, and these symbols become so iconic that people look at them and immediately go, “yup, that's that company”. the current scratch logo, while the font may not be incredibly elegant, is recognizable; it has a distinct look and feel. changing it to a simple vector font like that could end up making people perceive a completely different identity from scratch as a whole.

yeah.
sure, this redesigned logo you made looks fine and all, but it's kinda boring, honestly.
scratch is a children's site and it's about playing around of what you know, learning, all that jazz.
so i would expect the scratch logo to be playful.

Scratch 3.0 (gray background to show the white outline):
I find it a bit hard to read, the logo suggested by @100DiMENSIONS is more simplistic, easier to read, smoother, etc.
I highly doubt this would be added and that they would change their minds at the last moment, but perhaps they could at least make the logo have a smoother font that is easier to read?

Isn't that subjective? Subjectively Consolas is the font that reads the smoothest:

No support. Wouldn't it make more sense for the Scratch logo to be in the Scratch font?

Please don't blockspam. Blockspamming is the action of irrelevantly posting Scratchblocks on topics where the subject is something else. You can test out Scratchblocks here.



There's already a logo for Scratch 3.0 already (I am aware that this is an old topic, just want to point something out) and that logo looks a bit boring, IMO. Scratch is a kids website, and the logo needs to be childish and fun to look at. This is using some original font (close to Arial, it seems like - I'm unsure) and not the Scratch fun font. So two things - it's not fun enough for children and the Scratch logo has to use the Scratch font, it seems so much more relevant.

Something tells me the logo actually looks ugly… but the Scratch 3.0 logo you proposed would look completely different and I would feel like the logo seems strange.

my gosh don't change the logo! the current one is memerable and the classic! I don't want the logo to have a more modern look because that's super over-used nowadays!

I don't like the suggested logo. The outlines aren't uniform along the entire logo and the font is a bit too thin. But over all that, I think brand recognition is the most important part of a logo, and Scratch just nails it in my opinion. Scratch's logo is modern, it's slick, but it's also playful and has a very recognizable font. It captures perfectly what this site is all about. The suggested logo is just bland, the font is pretty generic and could be used for anything. Scratch's logo differs itself by the font, and if that's gone then Scratch's personality is gone.

The suggested logo doesn't look as good as the current logo.
