I remember when the current Banner was adopted some years ago (can’t remember the year) there was a little bit controversy…we’re all creatures of habit and sometimes it takes getting use to change…does anyone have a jpg of the original Banner you could post here ??? That would be cool…
To be honest, I can’t remember how the old logo looked like, but I found that on the net - I think this is the old one:
There’s a couple on the wayback machine archives
400,000 cards received! That’s going back a bit. (2007)
How funny to read that many had thought the old one was better!
So, is it 10 years of the “new” banner this year?
Yes, 10 years
Looking back, I would say that I liked the current logo straight away, but now I’ve seen on the blog that I wrote a not-so-friendly comment.
Oof, so did everyone else! It’s like when Facebook changes their layout - everyone complains for a week then we forget what it used to look like anyway haha
The old one looks a bit boring
Thanks for posting this, I didn’t know that there had been more than one banner. I like the way the letters are leaning to the right, as if the message is rushing off to the next address!
I didn’t even know it’s a new logo! (Well, I’m not “old” enough in postcrossing-anniversary-terms.)
I have a t-shirt with the old logo, I wish we could have some Official Postcrossing merch again (hint hint hint )
Same with me. I’m here since 2017 .
That looks familiar but I’m not sure…
Hallo @JetteLise !
Thank you sharing that screencap, it brings back a flood of memories!
The old map, and the postmark on the logo
Hope you are well!
Thank you for recap.
