CyanogenMod Selects A New Mascot – Say Hello To rAndy
Logos can be tricky. We’ve experimented with a few redesigns of our own in the past (a final decision was made and is, in fact, coming very soon). Well, a few weeks back, the CyanogenMod team felt it was time to give their famous “skateboarding Andy” mascot a redesign, asking users all over the world to help them come up with something fresh. After a long deliberation, TeamDouche finally picked this design by Caio Alves dubbed “rAndy” (final name subject to change).
Of course, not everyone is exactly excited for the new change and everyone is entitled to their opinions. Personally, I think it looks great. It’s in tune with Android’s new minimalist style, as well as a sort of evolution of the famous Bug Droid into this human hybrid looking robot. What do you guys think of the redesign? Was the old style better? Or maybe you would have picked a different winner from the submissions?
