The logo is not early 2000, it's like early 90s when everyone thought gradients and wordtext were the coolest things in the world. Do I like it? Kinda. Will the majority of people like it? No. Cut majorly back on the black.

Black generally inspires sophistication, fear, and grief. I guess my point here is that black inspires more negative emotions than positive when it comes to how a person is going to feel when they're browsing the site. Red and White is good. Black is generally bad for a site.
