ren69 Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Texas State University has asked a local high school in our area to cease use of their logo. An article from the local paper can be read at the link below there is also a video interview of the high school coach. I reached out to the coach by email about redesigning their logo and got a simple thank you but we already have a new logo. The logos are here for comparison which is just a recolor of the original but the NEW logo they "unveiled" is well....YOU DECIDE.http://www.valleycentral.com/news/story.aspx?id=1013151Rio Hondo Bobcats logoNew Logo https://www.behance.net/Ren1969 https://twitter.com/Ren1969_Rene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeauxColonels Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Well that's....interesting. They took a bad logo (IMO) and made it worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFB Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 This new logo is like playing hide-and-seek with a 3-year-old... no matter how hard the old logo tries to cover its eyes, you can still see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 If I were that high school I'd have he art department kids make a new logo. That's the worst bobcat logo they could've "borrowed". Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelayedPenalty Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 That's the same logo with some crap scribbled over it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Critical Thinker Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 I think it's different enough, but I guess what really matters is if Texas State thinks there were enough changes made.And yes, the new logo does suck. It's _____________ and Toledo still sucks.[insert time here] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GriffinM6 Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 That's a more terrible version of Texas State's. I'm sure Ren would've designed something 1000x better if they had let him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ren69 Posted August 22, 2014 Author Share Posted August 22, 2014 Appreciate that Griff. According to the local news reports even the schools ART teacher(s) wanted to get in on the redesign. Really hope this new logo is not their doing! https://www.behance.net/Ren1969 https://twitter.com/Ren1969_Rene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spearhead Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 I see the RH for Rio Hondo in there. Scrap it fellas and start over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 If you modify a logo 14.68% it's ok. J/KThe new one is bad, and probably ripped off from something, but the big RH combined with the other mods probably make it ok. Bad, but not theft.

TVIXX Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Hey ren, what would you have in mind for a logo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ren69 Posted August 23, 2014 Author Share Posted August 23, 2014 I actually have one done that I will be posting in my concept thread but it'll be in the Jones County College name & colors. Who knows, if TX State still doesn't approve of Rio Hondo's modified version maybe they'll consider buying it off me or perhaps even Jones County. ? https://www.behance.net/Ren1969 https://twitter.com/Ren1969_Rene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
