The new logo can also be seen as the bird opening a gaping maw about to devour the envelope.



Wow you're right.

The old logo can be seen as the bird holding the envelope with its wings, hence unable to flap, without dropping the envelope. But if the bird doesn't flap, it'll fall? It's caught between a rock and a hard place.

Anyway I like both logos, beautiful


Yeah, it looks like a bird throwing up an envelope to me. Wish they'd just make it more apparent that the bottom beak is not a beak, because otherwise it's a slick logo...


The bottom beak (which I now can’t unsee) is suggestive of being the bottom half because it matches the gradient of the top beak.

Easy enough to fix, but the bottom beak and the gaping maw isn’t too obvious… unless it’s pointed out.


Or protecting the envelope.
