Did you ever notice there are actually 6 Public Mobile logo variations?

Edit: Now that Public mobile has re-branded since May/June 2023, these "old" logos are now a historical curiosity.

This may all change in the near future with the recent app & plan detail leaks, but the "Current" logo on the main Public Mobile website actually has 6 variations! I confirmed this in the stylesheet/javascript code. And indeed, if you pay attention you will see a random choice of the 6 each time to visit the main site (but not just by reloading). I noticed it sometimes changing in the first second of page loading which twigged me to dig into the code. 🙂

It all seems like a bit over-the-top effort... Surely it would have been easier to just pick one logo and stick with it.. who even noticed this was a thing lol. Edit: Looks like this is a thing for this community site too.

function loadLogo() { var randomLogo; var logos = [ 'https://publicmobile.ca/images/logos/logo1.png', 'https://publicmobile.ca/images/logos/logo2.png', 'https://publicmobile.ca/images/logos/logo3.png', 'https://publicmobile.ca/images/logos/logo4.png', 'https://publicmobile.ca/images/logos/logo5.png', 'https://publicmobile.ca/images/logos/logo6.png' ]; randomLogo = logos[Math.floor(Math.random() * 5)]; document.getElementById("logo").src=randomLogo; };

@Nezgar yup.. I notice that when I am accessing on the phone. Not sure if it is just more noticeable using phone or desktop mode does not change

but according to the new apps PM will use the new logo from here instead??

@Nezgar , maybe they can’t make a decision! 🤣 They could ask our opinions on things 😁

Edit: That’s pretty cool that you discovered that! Thanks for sharing. 🙂

Some of us did notice this shortly after PM changed up their colours and logo in 2019 and user Kamwest posted about this here: https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/The-Lounge/New-Public-Logo-Chameleon/td-p/411761

However, it does seem like a waste of time/effort instead of making improvements to real long outstanding issues. Oh well..

@dabr , maybe it’s someone's downtime doodling/art work that was tried out (but they can’t make a decision) from an Employee that isn’t trained or authorized to fix the actual issues that badly need addressed! 😕 That’s the only excuse I can think of! Personally it hurts my eyes! 🤣

Edit: Also, the logo keeps changing when I refresh the webpages! Personally I would make it all the same bold style but add the words Mobile beside Public! What do I know though!

@Nezgar - this kinda reminds me of those old Highlights magazines where you need to spot things, or find the differences....😆
