Believe it or not i'm not opposed to this.

No. This is fashion. Hire a professional to do it and make long
term usability a requirement. The 2d flat look will feel very
old when the big boys (Microsoft, Apple) move on.
I don't think any of the proposed logos have been better than the
current one (which also works well as a tiny icon), but you could
easily flatten the logo by just keeping the white symbol and put
it on a black bar with the menu beneath as part of the current
webpage upgrade. You could keep the red by making the tiny circle
red.
The current image is a little bit "overdone" and so much red is
"screaming".
Changing the outline of the logo without backing it up with a
major language version announcement is rather pointless IMO.
