AAO Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 the best thing i like here is the black alt with 'sox' for the script, tried something new with the 'flying sock' for the main focus of the logos, to imply speed i guess like the foot with the wings for track runners: Behance Network || ianbakar.com || Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barnesdesign Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 I think that you are doing a great job making these teams' identities more modern. Real nice work.But one thing I worry about is the similarity in each of these concecpts. It seems like you use the same design on the baseball on every concept, and a lot of the wordmarks are similar in the way they are warped, and your single letter logos all look very similar. I think they look good individually, but altogether maybe they are a bit too similar for my liking. Perhaps it's just that you have a certain style and so naturally the logos and identities will look similar. I just am not sure if I would like a sports league where every identity looked so similar.Not trying to knock your work, you are one of the best I've seen here, definitely...maybe just something to think about as far as trying different styles for each team to expand it a bit take that for what it is worth barnesdesign.netbarnesdesign.posterous.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaolinaJoe Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 Man, I really like this one. Simple and perfect. Nice work on all the logos.How bout a pinstripe version of the white? Maybe pinstriped alt pants for the black also? Or a red jersey alt? Hat with red bill? "It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of thepress. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom ofspeech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given usthe freedom to demonstrate. And it is the soldier who salutes theflag, serves beneath the flag, whose coffin is draped by the flag, andwho allows the protester to burn the flag."Marine Chaplain Dennis Edward O' Brien Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEAD! Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 My suggestions would be to make the wordmark symmetrical and have the home jersey wordmarks black with gold trim. I like the wings on the sock, it reminds me of Goodyear. I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrodsep Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 The 2nd alternate looks like it's saying "SUX". I don't like the Gold on the wordmark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 These are all good, but I hope I never see anything like them in baseball. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that is because all designers have a certain style. i wouldnt like an entire league done by one designer either. The single letter logos really don't look alike at all. But the baseball's...they are the same ones all the way through, just rotated and with different shading marks in different concepts, except the Braves' one has a totally different baseball. The only wordmarks that are truly similar are the White Sox and The Orioles'. Thanks a lot though, I see where you're coming from.

Mings Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 I dont know there is something about this I dont like. The batwings on the sock are very odd, and I would have used silver instead of the tannish color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMS1122 Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 AAO, what i need you to do is breathe.reeling out concepts at this high a pace could hurt you in the long run.you've got a big couple weeks ahead of you with the WLPT and managing HTH3 at the same time.im worried about your health.word from the GM is that you rest the click finger for at least 3 days, and ice at nights, to maintain peak condition. Frequent porn breaks should also be a part of your daily agenda.Just had to get that out,Greg (recovered logoconceptualitis sufferer, but more importantly, a friend) GMS on dribbbleErie Apparel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ltravisjr Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 maybee its me, but it looks like the sock has wings It does. "Flying Sock" is one of the actual alternate (maybe "unofficial") White Sox logos. In fact, one of the most popular Sox fansites is flyingsock.com and it has a flying sock graphic on the page.LT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ltravisjr Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 I am impressed with this design. I have the Sox in the HTH contest, and I will be to going with something of an old-fashioned look. It will be an interesting contrast to this version.LT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, one of the most popular Sox fansites is flyingsock.com and it has a flying sock graphic on the page.DAMN. I thought i was being creative and original with the flying sock. Haha I really had no idea that it was an alt logo, even if it is unofficial.

When im not out with my friends or lifting or playing basketball or doing homework, im making stuff. Good looking out though, my friend. I havent even started on the next team yet, so i guess im on a break for now.that, and your left looks too right right nowisnt it 'left hooks, two rights' as in fighting?

jkrdevil Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 I have a question is each one in this thread going to have a seperate topic? Because it's getting annoying looking at main sports logo board paging and seeing 4 different MLB redesign topics. It would make it easier for people who want to view all the concepts in this project if it was in just 1 thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CZzyzx41 Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 Can't wait to see how the Padres one checks out. Will we be using Brown or will we see current colors and a fresh new design? -DanielCheck Out My Podcast!
