   #Thunderbird family: Thank you for the wealth of feedback about our redesigned logo. We listened to it, appreciated it, and took some action.

   Your loudest criticism was that our beloved bird looked a bit evil or sinister (LEFT, version 7).

   So, in this subtly improved version (RIGHT, version 7.5), we've rotated the eye and tweaked the gradient under the beak to look less harsh.

   We think this results in a calmer expression, making the bird look less predatory and more protective.
