The eye is iconic - add a few extra eyelashes maybe but there's no real need to completely change it.
Even the BB6 eye was based on the usual template - Daniel Eatock just did something a bit more different with it.
The only one that's really been different is the BB5 eye - but I'm sure even that was based on the original template in some shape or form.

So its best to keep it that way for each future series just to keep everything similar in the Eyes department?
I think a whole new eye would actually loose ratings for the simple reason the softcore fans won't recognise it. Fickle viewers won't know what it stands for when they see a new eye on a billboard especially becuase they haven't even put the words Big brother on their billboards for years just the eye.
I say give it a whole new look. If Daniel came up with a whole new template and design and iyo it was the best Eye you had ever seen, would it bother you that he;d changed the template

I don't think he could come up with a better template. The eye suits the UK version anyway. Glossy, polished, interesting, unusual and different. Apart from that I couldn't see what the advertising/opening titles/graphics would go by.
EDIT: To show how much other versions are impressed by it, it's now the second most used template (After the origional from 1999) around the world. Although they mostly just copy the 6th eye.

He might not be allowed to change it anyway? he could be under inastruction from Endemol to keep it that way for all kinds of reasons which none of us will ever be aware of
I am not saying its not used much, Im saying it could be changed thats all, Daniel could shock us this year with a whole new Eye and template. I heard that this year could be the last big brother unless the ratings improve vastly and if a whole new Eye design and template becomes a big talking point, that can only do more good than halm in the long run I would have thought

I think a new eye would actually loose ratings simply because soft core fans wouldn't recognise it it. Fickle veiwers wouldn't know what it would stand for if they saw it on a bill board especially as they don't even put words on the bill bords just they eye.
