Ever thought y'all might be wrong? Pilots are happy to tell you when you are... And this is one of those times Just as there is always new innovation (in every industry, I might add), a lot of us appreciate the old planes, old technology, and the old companies that used to fly our friendly skies. Mergers and rebranding are usually associated negatively in our world. In this case, we appreciate the old header simply because it looks better than the new one. Now, if you can come up with something better, by all means present it to the community and let us decide whether or not we like it. Although it is your right as the owners of this website to do whatever you like, it would be most appreciated if you included your users in the simple, non-business decisions.

You could simply bring back the old headers and unify both websites that way. Especially considering most do not like the new header. Food for thought.
