Hi, guys.

I'd really like two logos for teams in my upcoming United Kingdom Baseball League. I'd appreciate any help I can get.

The first team is the 'Leeds Roses.' I only want something very simple for this. Basically, if you could use this source image -- maybe stylize it a bit to make it a bit more distinctive -- and add the word 'Roses' in white text with a black outline, that would be perfect.

The other team is the 'Birmingham Lock Keepers.' Not sure what would work best for this. So, basically, any simple canal- or other waterway-related image, with the words 'Lock Keepers' would work fine. The colour scheme would preferably be light blue, dark blue and black.

Finally, I'd like a logo for the league itself. A standard sort of thing. 'UKBL' (or 'United Kingdom Baseball League') text with some generic baseball image, perhaps. Red, white and blue colour scheme, natch. Preferably, it should look good in both small and large versions -- or, alternatively, you could make two different versions.

Sorry if I sound rather demanding in this post. It'll be no disaster if I don't get what I'm looking for, but it'd be great if someone had a bash.

Thanks very much in advance.

How's this, for the Roses?

Maybe this, for the Lock Keepers...

Thanks, guys: those are all awesome.

I think I'm going to go with cody's Birmingham logo and justafan's Leeds effort. I can use both league logos. I'll probably keep the other team logos, too, as alternates or for historical changes of aesthetics and whatnot.

Once again: thanks very, very much. I'll credit you both in the "dynasty" thread once it starts.
