Here's the new logo released yesterday, apparently chosen from something like a hundred different designs:

My personal feeling is that, well, I hate it.

First, I don't like the term "Lottery Tennessee". It sounds backwards - "Tennessee Lottery" sounds much better to me.

Second, the "T" stuck to the bottom of the cube with the stars shooting out doesn't do it for me.

What do you think? (Let 'Becca hear you!)

Hey Todd,
I have to agree with you. If this is the BEST of the lot, then can you imagine what the others looked like? One more thing....."Lottery Tennessee" is about like saying, "Jerry and Tom" instead of "Tom and Jerry"...... :)

The state of Tennessee pays this lady half of a million dollars to come up with a logo like that. You people aren't getting your money's worth down there.

I can definitley say that I would not have choose that Logo, but then I don't really know how bad the others were.....could they have been worse?

Like others have said, if this was the best of the bunch, I would hate to see the others. Personally, I thought the one that Todd was using here on the site which said Tennessee Lottery with the ball bouncing out the words looked very professional and was just fine. Someone should have entered that one.

it is okay...as long as it helps generate that money..I wonder if they paid the person who made that logo? If they had paid as much as they did for Rebecca..well you can see my point.

If you know your number is going to hit, have patience and then KILL IT!

You never know when you will get another hit.

The whole purpose of a simple gif image like that is it should load instantly, only they've got 32 different colors in that thing using up 47.6k where they could easily reduce it to a 16 or even 5 color pallet in half the k. Heck, it isn't even animated, just bloated download time wise, but should still load faster then the Georgia lotto site. BobP

Bob,
You're right - it has 32 unique colors. Wow, that seems strange (and wasted, considering that it only appears to have four unique colors).
