Hate to say it but the old logo looks better, but with a little more though i should think they could come up with an even better logo. Personaly doesnt bother me too much though.

I thought the old logo was OK. The new logo doesn't say anything to me at all.
How about a logo that looks like a bike but with the letters BCF forming a part of the bike, and maybe the rider too?

I agree. There's nothing to connect it with being a bike chat forum.

I don't like either of them really.

Couldn't give a flying f*ck and I bet Korn couldn't either. I don't come here for the logo, I couldn't remember what the old logo looked like anyway.

You can please some of the people some of the time but . . . . .

I voted for the new one - not because i like it, but because its better than that other damn thing.

Its been dead now for ages and about time it got changed, but not with this - looks lame.

Keep the letters inside the rev counter, thats when it looked good Thumbs Up

The new logo is nice and simplistic and i'd rather be associated with a car forum, than owning an NSR125 like the old logo. Razz

I prefer the 'idea' of the old logo. Just perhaps with some more modern and bigger bikes. The old nsr125, a yellow 400 (i think) and whatever the blue thing is just cry out 'a n00bies forum'. You just know it's going to be full of spotty 17 year old nsr125 riders and 400 crazed A1 licence holders convinced 400's are the be all and end all of bikes.....


.... oh seems it is Laughing


But you know what I mean - must turn a fair few people away when seeing the kind of bikes on the old logo. It's the first impression that counts and at first impression stage I could only recognise one of those bikes and it's a 125 Confused The new one is neither here nor there so it's not doing any harm if it stays.

Why don't you lot get out and ride instead of moaning about the new logo.

Do something better then. As far as i'm aware people have been talking about coming up with new logos for about 3 years now and to be honest, a lot of them were complete shite.

"Oh look, a picture of my bike with BCF on it, isn't it great?"

Advantage of the old logo was at least it showed bikes.
Looking at the new logo then BCF could mean anything - British Chav Foundation?. It's not clear that the C is a rev counter. Even then cars have rev counters too Confused

Perhaps someone with photoshop skills could put the new "BCF" text inside the old three bikes picture?
