Pre-Made Logos

Faroo6 · 02-22-2007, 03:25 PM

Any chance in the future, the game will have a collection of original pre-made logos?

I nominate Cuss for such a task.

Random logoness...

Some more of his talented work.

Yes, I agree. Truly custom logos have a consistent design thread and his work is distinctively his. Many of my logos I have done in the last year or so were inspired by his work.

Faroo6 · 02-22-2007, 03:35 PM

I just noticed his style would work almost perfectly too, because his alternate logos I think would fit seamlessly into the new Jersey and Hat Logos, which reminds me does someone have his OOTP work hosted somewhere.

It's a great idea as long as there is someone(s) to do it.

It's a huge job, over 1000 different nicknames will be included in the game, so you would need those over 1000 logos.

I see more feasible to create a fantasy quickstart with the logos for those teams, let's say 100 teams instead of 1000.

SSG Troyer · 02-22-2007, 04:38 PM

Not only would 1000+ logos be needed, but they would all have to be non-copyrighted. Many of the fictional logo creators use copyrighted images for their source, and those logos would not be able to be included with a product SI/SEGA would profit from.

I'd love to lock Aurelio away for 7 months to do this, but unfortunately he wouldn't agree

silvam14 · 02-22-2007, 04:55 PM

What you don't like the generic logos created by the game now?

hehe

Icy · 02-22-2007, 04:56 PM

I toyed with writting a photoshop script that would create a logo for each nickname contained in the game date file, but of course as everything automated, the logos would need to have the same look, just changing the name on them and the colors. Basicaly what the game does already with the initials in the circle, but using another graphic instead of the basic circle.

Looking at his website it seems that Cuss is Paul, the designer for Wolverine Studios games interfaces. I'm a huge fan of his work done for TPB05 and DDSPB.

I'll gladly contribute some of my small collection. In fact, I think I've already mentioned that a few times.

cephasjames · 02-22-2007, 06:28 PM

I'd gladly contribute my small collection... but there might be a few small copyright issues.

And I will gladly be using your logos for my fictional league. Keep 'em coming!

crz4mets2 · 02-22-2007, 07:37 PM

I would like to have this feature, but nobody would agree. Unless you take like 50 people who make 10 logos each

Jordan · 02-22-2007, 08:53 PM

If SI put some of our finer logo creators on their payroll for just such a task, I don't know what I would do with myself.

justafan · 02-22-2007, 10:57 PM

I've done 256 logos for the WWBF league, so I think 1000 is possible.

Deft · 02-22-2007, 11:33 PM

The issue with this is that it would require original logos. To get good quality logos that aren't violating copyright rules requires lots of work that only a few can do well.

Which is why I naturally nominated Cuss. 1000 logos is a lot to ask but its not like enough couldn't be produced for just the standard league.

FWIW, all the logos I've done (which admittedly is not a huge number) are entirely original creations.

Also, the logos need not all be particularly complex. Given that for game purposes they shouldn't include the city name but just the team nickname, that helps simply things somewhat. If you use real-world examples of simply designed logos like that of the Cubs or Giants, there could be a number of pre-made logos for OOTP that use similarly basic designs.

I agree. It would have to be a simple design, but way better than the in game logos we have now.
