Anime Boston Difficulties...

Ok, as most of you know i've been the Lead Artist for Anime Boston for the past 2 years. It's been a great job, and i love the people i work with! It's a great con, and is run by some really super people. I'm really glad to be a part of it. :D

But, over the past few months, there have been some changes that i've been a little skeptical about.
The major one is the new "branding" for AB. A certain person has taken it upon themselves to redesign everything without enough team input. And most of the team is quite unhappy with this person's attitude and work. However, i'd like a objective opinion about the new logo/mascots before making anymore personal judgments.

So, here are the new images:
The "O's" in Boston are supposed to be "cutesy eyes" and the mascots are meant to be "super chibi".

I'd really appreciate everyone's participation in the poll and any other comments you may have. Since this is a significant change to AB's image, i think we need the input of the con-goer before any of this is made permanent.
