MLB Logos for Out of the Park Baseball v5 (c) 2003 .400 Software Studios www.400softwarestudios.com
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MLB1.zip

This is Series 1 of a 3 part MLB Logos set that will eventually be released in its entirety and will include over 400 variations. Most of the differences will be along the line of background and border colors but there will be plenty of styles to choose from as well. The complete set will be comprised of the following:

Series 100: Dark blue background and border with a white separation stripe. (94 logos)
Series 200: Team color background and border with a white separation stripe. (96 logos)
Series 300: White background with team color border. (218 logos)

All logos are numbered for easy separation and inclusion into OOTP5 as follows:

Atlanta Braves 101 logo15.bmp
Atlanta Braves 201 logo15.bmp
Atlanta Braves 301 logo15.bmp

This will allow individual users to easily pick and choose the particular logos that they would like to use for each team since they will be in alphabetical order or easily clump all of one series together. By simply removing the team name and series number they will have a logo that is properly named for use within the game.

Properly proportioned graphics sizes in relation to the borders as well as smooth edge blending in relation to the background colors are two common aspects of the entire set. Another common aspect is the manner in which every logo has been framed. The game will resize logos down from 150x150 to 90x90 for the in-game screen and 75x75 for the team pages. The resizing causes issues since it does not resize all sides proportionately. Instead, it will resize the top and left side more so than it will the bottom and the right side. The final outcome is a border that is wider on two sides and a logo that no longer looks centered. These logos include an additional true black border that will remain transparent in the game and will completely resolve these issues. These logos will have equal sized borders and will always remain centered when viewed from any screen within the game.

The overall focus when creating this logo set was to provide a wide variety of extremely clean and crisp MLB logos. Hopefully that has been accomplished and others will enjoy the use of these logos when playing out their careers as MLB managers.

Thanks for the early and kind responses. Would anyone like to finish the other 300 for me?!?

Actually, the other two series have been completed except for adding the borders and triple checking the quality inside and out of the game. All resizing, positioning and transparency issues have been resolved. Hopefully they can be completed with a couple of good hard working nights in the near future. It will be nice to give more options for those looking for MLB logos. The white background series really has some interesting variations for each team considering that there are over 200 logos in that series alone. Thanks again.
