New favicon for Gmail login screen – is this for all Google login pages?
Noticed today that the Gmail login screen has a new favicon:
I like it – use your ‘g’ that’s already in your name & logo, very recognizable.
Went to login to Google Reader and get that favicon for that login screen as well… yet both services (Gmail & Google Reader), when logged in, keep their original favicons (Gmail has the red letter looking dealio & Google Reader has a custom Google RSS symbol).
Interesting… nothing like a new favicon from Google to get you perked up for a Friday morning!















Yeah – I noticed the favicon this morning as well. Although, I’m not sure if I’m completely sold on it. Hey, maybe they can change the color of the favicon according to the holiday – like they do with their entire logo.
I like the older favicon much better. I hope this is just a temporary thing.
Even if it isn’t, they are Google and they can do just about what ever they want.
Wow…I just noticed that….I kinda like the old one better.
I think I like it, but that also might just be because it’s different and I like change. It would be cool if you could customize it.
Yeah, I am not a big fan, either. It seems like they could come up with something better. The “g” isn’t even the same color as it is in the logo. Branding 101 basics. It’s boring and unimaginative. For a company that is so forward-thinking, I am unimpressed. It should just be a big money sign, considering all the money they make on selling our identities to the government. Damn the man.
