The first signs of DogVacay's influence?

Rover's logo (color) has changed slightly. It's become more blue like DogVacay's logo/theme:

OLD:

NEW:

This is an example of why I wasn't glad to hear about the merger. There are real improvements sitters have been asking for (for a very long time). I keep seeing minor changes which are often regressive. (Ex. the photo thumbnails were changed for no apparent reason a few months ago. The result was that the portrait-oriented thumbnails were generated too small -- then re-enlarged when displayed as tiles (which makes them extremely blurry). I have no idea why Rover would spend resources on something so pointless as well as regressive when there are meaningful things that could be done (like making the calendar a true calendar).

I think "color changes" (and similar drains on Rover's limited development resources) will set us back even further (as a priority). I didn't see the point of it when DogVacay seemed to be swirling the drain, not a formidable competitor. I think if Rover focused on on their partnership with the sitter (providing more of what sitters have been asking for), they could have just taken DV's business.

This color change is what I was expecting. Oh well. Hopefully I'm wrong and we'll see all kinds of great things happening sometime.
