Visual Studio 2010 got a new logo – you like?

Not so long ago we saw a new logo revealed for the Microsoft .Net framework – the “Wave” logo was widely received as being a huge improvement and many loved it.

Just around the corner comes a new version of Visual Studio – 2010 which promises to be  the next best thing after sliced bread (that’s my personal opinion btw).

One of the small (and in all honesty, insignificant really) news is that there’s a new logo.

“Infinitely” nicer than the old one, yet still carrying the basic shape with it that we saw in previous Visual Studio versions.

New Visual Studio Logo

As i mentioned, it still has the  same basic shape – very similar to the “Inifinite” sign – word play/picture play anyone?

It has the same flowy design and colours we saw in the Microsoft .Net logo, yet the colour is a bit different.

Question now is (and yes i know, it’s not that important), do you like the modern look?

Yay or Nay?

My personal opinion -- while I think it's better than the previous VS logo, I also think it might now be TOO similar to the .NET logo in color and style. Then again, maybe that's what they're trying to go for -- a more unified look?

Thanks for sharing with us,

Jenny

@Jenny,

I actually think the point was to align it more with the .Net logo.

the "Wave" (eg. .Net logo) was received really well.

VS also hasn't had a logo upgrade in a LOOONG time, so i definitely think it was about time that it got a facelift into the 21st century :)

Thanks for your comment..
