dcameronh Posted May 2, 2012 Author Share Posted May 2, 2012 Gold was one of Weber State University’s original school colors but is still used in some instances and is still listed as an official school color. These are taken from their graphics standard guide:I wonder if they will bring back this gold in the new logos? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfwabel Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Shouldn't it just be the back of the wildcat's head to symbolize John L Smith turning his back to the program? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxxtrot44 Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Interesting...rebrand fever in Utah.I honestly would be a little surprised for them to re-emphasize gold...based on recent history I would anticipate them moving more towards a purple and black colour scheme. I HATE THIS TIMELINE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enio125 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I kinda like their current logo. It's going to be interesting to see what they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CityOfWalrus Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Went to Weber State for a year to play for their hockey team, I'm interested to see what they will come up with. Their current Wildcat is pretty iconic but if they improve on it then even better, we'll have to see what they have in store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leggman01 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I kinda like their current logo. It's going to be interesting to see what they do.i'm with you there...i think the wordmark treatment needs improvement, and the paws could use some work (and i don't like the outlines on the 3 color versions), but the current is very solid - it would be a shame if the redesign was worse than the current, but it wouldn't be surprising given the state of the current identity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knnhrvy16 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Interesting, hopefully it's nothing too drastically far from what they have now. Here in Utah at least, the Wildcat Shield is just as prominent as the drum-and-feathers and the "Y". I really like the shield, too. Also, I'd hate for them to re-integrate gold. Weber has always been a Purple-and-Black school to me. The opinions I express are mine, and mine only. If I am to express them, it is not to say you or anyone else is wrong, and certainly not to say that I am right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattharveysc Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 I attend Weber State right now. I saw a concept, and it was pretty different from what they have now. a wildcat head with paws on the side. I felt that it was a downgrade. I'll try to find some photos. don't remember seeing gold in the color mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drdougfresh Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 I'm curious to see what the Big Sky comes out with-- the firm that's rebranding the conference came up with the Marlins' current identity. But they also nailed the Minnesota Wild identity, so who knows.I honestly never minded Weber's logos, probably some of the best in the conference TBH. Just their uniforms need some work to be a little less generic. Hope they don't deviate too far from the current 'cat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems amatuerish. Why you make fun of me? I make concept for Auburn champions and you make fun of me. I cry tears.Chopping off the dicks of Filipino boys and embracing causes that promote bigotry =/= strong moral character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeauxColonels Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 I like it. Pretty nice looking cat there. The wordmark and font are fairly generic though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxxtrot44 Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Wow, downgrade. The prior had a classic university feel to it...this looks like a logo for a high school softball team. I HATE THIS TIMELINE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raysfan24 Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 This looks very similar to what they introduced today. I looked in the little photo album thing at the bottom of the article and they have a logo with paws on the side. They both are very similar.
