Facebook logo gets a facelift

Few Facebook users might notice, but the social network has updated its logo and icons, a tech site reported over the weekend.

 

A report on Mashable noted the new main logo has no more faint blue line at the bottom of the "f" icon, and the "f" is pulled closer to the edge of the box.

 

"The 'f' logo hasn't been updated to all pages just yet, including the Brand Permissions page. However, it has been added as the picture to Facebook's Twitter account," it said.

 

Facebook also refreshed the logos of its other official pages, including the security badge and the privacy icon, Mashable said.

 

It said the redesigned logos feature Facebook's blue color as a background "to create a more streamlined, uniformed look."

 

It said the new logo was seen first spotted on the information page for Facebook Home, but appeared to get rolled out elsewhere on the social giant.

 

"The new logo showed up in the company's newsroom webpage on Friday," it said, citing web developer Tom Waddington. — TJD, GMA News
