    These look hideous.

    I like it, let's form a zoo of vector animals. Who wants to be the zebra?

    Eventually the logo will be melted butter.

    Seems origami to me

    I always thought the Firefox logo was really cool. Great name, great logo. Sad that they are dropping it for something fashionable.

    The refreshed icon was 100% fine and the new one looks like total ass

    I for one like the new icon. Looks a lot sleeker, kinda KDE-ish with the color shades/transitions.

    Gitlab uses similar colors but more plain shades and only straight lines. It's different enough for me.

    That image won't be the Firefox browser icon, it'll by the master logo for the whole Firefox projects

    The first row in this image will be the new Firefox browser icon

    Just googled it, it's wip/design suggestions anyway. And even with the suggested "master design" it's not Firefox' browser logo, but will show up in marketing material etc.

    Here is the corresponding design suggestions for the browser, so don't get worked up over nothing.

    @Qwby no, not Mozilla's, but Firefox as an overarching project consisting of multiple things

    @Qwby @j4cobgarby I thought the Mozilla logo is now something like Moz://a

    @j4cobgarby found my mistake, this is kind of confusing. The icon is for their umbrella brand "Firefox", and "Firefox Quantum" is one of their products, for which there is the "normal" Firefox logo.

    They want to have a different icon for marketing purposes, which is what the first option suggests. The second option looks more like the browser's icon. And everything is still awaiting input from the community and is not final in any way.

    @FrodoSwaggins I agree, I really like the current logo, it's just the right amount of flat

    Mozilla should stick to what they do well. This and last year’s master brand redesign show that graphic design is not among them.

    @Kaji I cannot disagree with you more. I for one like this design direction. Just because you do not like the design, does not mean it is bad design.

    @starrynights89 In the end, all logos will be Melted Butter

    This will probably not be the new logo, ans this is not the logo they will use in the browser

    @aquacash5 Fair enough, but part of good branding is keeping the soul of what people associate with the brand unless there is some reason you *need* to throw out the old. System 1 in particular dumps all of it for sake of looking modern (and rather derivative to boot, as has been pointed out above).

    That said it’s pretty bad UX design when nobody can tell what the various control icons in the set are without assistance.

    @athlon The Moz://a logo is fucking brilliant.

    Well... Don't confuse everything.

    There is a masterbrand Firefox logo (shown at events) and Firefox products logo.
