I think the new banner is horrible. It resembles a blood stain in more ways than just from one's nose. Also, the lettering is horrible and doesn't work well when resizing for banners. I request another be chosen as this one is simply in bad taste. I apologize to whoever made it but it just isn't what I was looking for in a nice banner for this site.

It's not your choice. It's a democratic one, and the users have spoken. Good day.

Wow, I like it.. Didn't expect that. Good job to whoever made it.. I like blood so if it reminds others of blood.. I'll be like "that's what I'm talking about!"

Eh, I don't hate it.

Except if it reminds you of bloody stools among other things. I look after sick cats most of the day. I deal with this kind of thing all of the time. I did NOT want to see it here. V.V;;

How fortunate, then, that you don't have to see it!

...well, so long as you use Firefox, although the basic technique is portable to any browser with XPath query support and a half-baked DOM.

Of course, this doesn't solve the banner issue, but you can just adblock those out of existence.

I shouldn't have to adblock the banner. If it's awful then they should go back to the old one. I liked the old one. Why do they even have to change their logo? That's stupid.

Because variety is the spice of life?

Sucks for you that you have something bad tied to the image, but since the majority doesn't agree with you, please just stop bitching, as it won't do any good.

Rule of the minority doesn't work here, unless you're Phade or Vlad.

The number of people who are having an emotional outbreak on your scale is...well, one. That's pretty small, and I don't think anyone will make changes for that.

So...if you don't like it, try making use of the fact that your computer is your computer, and modifying the data as it goes in. Works for me; I don't even see the bloody thing anymore. Pun intended.
