New BB eye revealed?

(updated) 2008 Official Site design leaked!

With just over 2 months until BB08 begins, once again BBBA is set to be your source for pre-season news and inside info. Long-time forumer realityJunkie has discovered what looks like a prototype of a new official BB site design. As well as being a completely-freshened look for the OS, the big news is that it contains a brand-new Big Brother eye logo.

Traditionally the show has updated its logo every couple of years, though we have been seen the same ‘cube’ logo for the past three seasons. If it’s legit, this new eye looks grittier and, arguably, more grown-up. In fact, one could argue it bears some resemblance to the current BBBA banner! For the first time since the series began, the text uses a completely new font.

The eye itself bears a strong resemblance to the large image on the roof of the eviction auditorium, so it looks like that eye served as a basis for the new look (thanks to Tronno for pointing this out).
