Logo Request

rdegree28 · 01-05-2005, 10:19 PM

I must say that I am really impressed by the work of all the people who create logos on this board. I've been playing OOTP since v3 and have never used logos before in fictional leagues, but I think I'll tap your creativity a bit and request logos for two new expansion teams.

1) Twin Cities Walleye - Twin Cities as in Minnesota. For colors I was thinking blue-green and silver maybe. I don't want to be too specific, it is YOUR logo afterall.

2) Vancouver Wilderness - I was thinking red and dark green here, but again, I don't want to be specific.

I look forward to seeing these. Thanks in advance.

Having some fun with the wilderness logo. I took the "W" from wilderness and tried to incorporate it into the logo...

I love the bear print in the background. That's really cool.

Walleye:

The Walleye is precious...fine colors and design.

Okay... here we go. While, like I said, I had fun with the W, I didn't really like the design at all, and I wasn't about to let THAT design go as my contribution to your request

Here's a better attempt. I used the "V" from Vancouver this time, and grabbed a picture of a "Grizzly." I then used the dark green and red you requested and used them both to mesh the grizzly overtop the V.

I placed a silhoutte of the Vancouver skyline along the bottom of the picture, and included a shadow of the bear paw you liked in the first logo. I then scrawled "Wilderness" across the image in a shakey font, highlighted it for an eerie effect, and then borrowed from that for the text in the circle.

I like this one much better than my previous attempt

(oh well... I was at work doing the other one - doing it while sitting on conference calls)

Probably too busy, but:

That is a stunningly good logo...absolutely stunning.

I hope you keep that one...one of these days I just may change the name of one of my fictional teams so I can use that logo.

Very nice, knuckler. I don't think that's too busy at all.
