I don't think there has been one positive response from this change from across the state. With the way the responses have been. It will not suprise me if the Governor said forget it and leave it the way it is and the state just be out 46k. When I first saw the change I thought it was an Onion article.

That's like California changing its bear state logo.

The tristar is iconic. I couldn't imagine that hideous logo being run through the T.

About 30 years ago, NBC spent some multiple of $1 million for a new logo. Turned out Nebraska Public Television had already trademarked a near duplicate except NBC's had two colors and NPT was a solid color. Threatened with an infringement suit, NBC had to cough up several more $mill to get NPT to release the rights.

NPT then went in-house and held an employee contest for a new logo and got a good one for $1000.00 in prize money.

Proof that you don't need to think to have an idea.

The problem is the media is constantly writing articles about what is our government doing? What do they do up there? Well, here is your answer. It is better to have them do nothing most of the time.

It isn't replacing the Tri-star. That will still be the flag and state symbol. This is for unifying state agency logos...almost every different agency and sub-agency has a different logo. You need something that can be scaled to any size and still be legible. Is it creative? Hell no. But is will be effective. BTW, the agency that did it was the cheapest bid.

As far as cost, it is relatively cheap, especially dealing with the bureaucracy of getting approval thru government. BBC's logo? The 3 seperate blocks with B - C - C in it? Cost $1.8 Million.

I was in a meeting last week and my boss, the SVP of the company, said we have spent $50,000 in research and the firm reports back that the number 1 reason people eat in our restaurants is food. I replied that I would have told him that for 10 grand. Did not end well for me....

I'm thinking they wanted to get away from that Confederate Flag red. Political correctness run amok.

So if thats the case then why couldn't they use the tri-star as a unifying logo? Seems like the obvious play since that logo would be easy to read and identify at any size. Maybe even easier since it doesn't have any letters or words. This just screams change for the sake of change.
