I respect the current one. I do prefer the old one, but the current one is still regonizable as a fox around a ~~globe representing the word wide web~~ ball.

I think from 2013 is my favorite. I'd probably like the fox from 04 and the globe from 13 the best.

17 and 19 are both cool logos on their own, but are literally duller then the others. They got rid of all the pointy bits. The fire gradients on both are nicely done.

Every Firefox logo from 2004 to 2019

2009 one is by far my fave. I love that 3D look compared to the flat minimalistic look the 2017 and 2019 versions have

im torn between old design and new frankly. I really like the little details present in the old logo, but not the explicit 3d nature of them. I much prefer the flat styling of modern applications, it's just more suited to functionality IMO.

Bring the modern one some more detail, give it a paw, make the globe blue, i'll be happy.

I need the little paw back so bad

2013 has the perfect balance between details and simplicity. It was too detailed before and has become too dull after.

The 2017 one is a bit bland but at least it kept the shape and colours from before. I hate the 2019 one because all that has changed.

Its a metaphor for what's happened to the internet.

I will also go with 2013.

Going from left to right it looks like he spent nine years drinking the world's oceans and has since moved on to consuming the planet itself.

I honestly like 2004 the best. I could see the issue with it then when resolutions were lower, but I feel like we could go back to it now. It looks so much nicer, though arguably less recognizable at a glance from across the room or something.

Is it though? Regardless of the amount of detail you still see the big orange swirl around the blue ball from across the room.
