Logo Request

tarmer · 04-02-2006, 11:34 AM

I think all you guys thta do this not only provide a great service to the OOTP community, But do an excellent job as well - So I would like to start off in advance by thanking all you logo designers for the work you do... THANKS

I would also like to request some logo's - This is a fictional league - It will be called Eastern Conference Baseball (or something along those lines)

It will be based loosely on the fact that baseball had the National Association of Base Ball Players in the 1870's - I will set the league up era wise but will not use the exact teams (only the concept)

The league will consist of 8 teams (to start) and possibly grow / relocate from there...

The Logos can have any name the designer chooses.. along with the colors you choose ..

Cities needed are as follows:

Albany
Boston
Chicago
Charlotte
Detroit
Pittsburgh
Savannah
Scranton

Any help would be awesome.... Thanks guys

I went with plain because of the time period, but if you prefer something different, let me know.

I'd be willing to offer some ideas, however, I don't know the history of these locations, so team nicknames escape me. If you have some ideas, I can then put something forward.

Boston

Knuckler.. Those are excellent... Good work..

I left the knicknames generic so that any interested designer could take some artistic license...

I like the feeling knuckler has put out as this is 1870.....

Keep up the good work and thanks again

Knuckler.... To see the backstory and some information related to these logos have a look.... http://all-time-baseball.com/serendipity/

and again.... Many Thanks

Your site looks very good & very professional. You've obviously put a lot of time into it and the backstory.

tarmer · 04-06-2006, 02:29 PM

Thanks... I had the concept of making this league "fictional" thru history and started writing the backstory accordingly... It is a form of alternate reality as there is some real history. It was easy to write that part, But getting the logos was more than I could do, But actually you helped a great deal in the team naming as there is actual history behind almost all of those logos that pertains.. Ie the Dutchmen (albany's real founders), Pontiac (the indians that inhabited michigan), the alleghanies (pittsburg's twin city name), and miners (scranton was a huge mining town)

So you helped make it easy... Thanks

knuckler · 04-06-2006, 05:00 PM

Two Charlotte options. Not crazy about how the logo looks on the second one, but I like the name better. Millers pays homage to Charlotte's textile history.

tarmer · 04-06-2006, 10:40 PM

Thanks again.. goin with the millers....
