I don't like this as much. It's a lack of pizzazz. Was 2006 any better?
Hello! I like this one the best! I can just imagine the Google logo sighing as it lay down to lounge in the bed of shamrocks.
2005 gets points for incorporating the traditional cartoon leprechaun hat. Though for some reason the shade of green for the Google logo is really bothering me.
Here's 2004, and though the pattern is pretty, it's not Saint Patrick's Day without shamrocks. I also have to note some patterns I'm seeing in other special Google logos. Father's Day often includes a dad in a hammock. Mother's Day only has flowers. For some reason Persian New Year is different than regular new year, and thus worthy of a special logo.
For some reason Saint Patrick's Day isn't important enough in 2003!
At least 2002 has something. Not a particularly spectacular something, but something nonetheless.
Yay, a pot at the end of the rainbow! Way to go, 2001!
I just noticed in 2000 that they used to have a TM at the end of Google, apparently through 2003 that was the case (judging from these pictures.
So 2000 was the first year they really started the Google logo thing. But I just can't get over how weird the old Google named use to look! It's all chunky and different. Me no likey. Exclamation point!
