If they had to tweak it, you think they would have did a better job at it. :roll:

I really don't care for it much. I liked the old logo better.

I figured it was coming, they had the "old one" since practically, if not literally the beginning.

My only response to them is HUH??? Bringing what weather to life? you don't even report the weather anymore.

A first grader could have come up with a better logo. I wonder how much they got ripped off for that one?!?!?!

If so, they forgot the bar code. "Bringing weather to life"? I didn't know it was dead... :roll:

I like the new one. Yes it is simple but in the advertising world...simpler is better. I think it was time to change their logo. All major companies update their logos.

LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!! :roflmao:

Well, TWC is consistent about one thing at least. They're getting worse on ALL fronts, not just a few here and there.

Speaking of the credit card, I might like to order mine. How long do they deliver? Actually, on second thought, just kidding.
