Re: Thoughts on the logo

Eh, it's a logo. If it makes them happy, it's their aesthetic to do with as they see fit.

That being said, I preferred the old one. It was more recognizable, and reminded me of a periodic table element. It was a nice touch.

However, that's not the issue which gets me to post here. The new color branding-- designed to match the logo-- is what bothers me more than anything. The main page has been updated with the green buttons and, putting it charitably, it's a questionable decision.

Green buttons are not a way to go, no matter who owns the company. It's a question of contrast and readability, not market share and branding. I sincerely hope that the webpage updates are rolled back and in general the green is kept far from UI elements.

@Onshape, please don't make your interface and homepage harder to use just to satisfy branding requirements.

Hi Everyone,
@alnis_smidchens will be participating in a "speed modeling" tournament Monday at 7:00pm EST. He will go up against 7 others, and will be the only participant using Onshape. I've seen his speed modeling demonstrations, and while the field is tough, I have confidence that he will be crowned champion.

Let's all give Alnis some encouragement!
