Robmarty009 Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Hey guys. I'm taking a graphic design class where we have to come up with a concept and I chose to create an NBA basketball team. I chose to locate them in Pittsburgh and came up with the name The Hammers (playing off the whole "Steel City" identity). Anyways, I wanted to get some constructive criticism by other sports-loving designers on my ideas. Below are a couple ideas for logos I've made. Please feel free to critique the work and also let me know if any of these work well enough to move forward with and why/why not.Here they are:Thanks again guys for your time!

BrySmalls Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Holy hell! What exactly is going on here?(Note: This initial post was in response to seeing a long list of code before I provided steps to the poster on how to upload his images. This does not reflect my opinion of his uploaded images). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robmarty009 Posted November 15, 2012 Author Share Posted November 15, 2012 Whoops! I tried copying and pasting a couple JPEGs into the body and THIS happened! Any advice guys? What did I do wrong here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrySmalls Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I recommend uploading the JPEGs to an image hosting website, like Photobucket; and then click on the "Image" icon within the post editor to connect to the photos you're trying to display.

Robmarty009 Posted November 15, 2012 Author Share Posted November 15, 2012 Thanks guys! Looks like they posted at a pretty LARGE size! But hey, at least it worked finally! Thanks again guys for helping me out and for critiquing my work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPDesign Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 The second one looks really nice. I don't like the grey lines on the extrusion on the wordmark. Maybe adding some of the dark grey to the basketball, like on the hammers would really help polish this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBigYellOhh Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 The 2nd logo you created looks really good, If i was a team owner i'd choose that one. 12-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPDesign Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 TheBigYellOhh, you need to post your own concept, in your own thread. Don't hijack Robmarty's thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robmarty009 Posted November 15, 2012 Author Share Posted November 15, 2012 thebigyellohh, I like that ball/ flame design but I'm a little confused. Instead of recreating the Lakers logo, it appears you're simply mashing up theirs with the Heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robmarty009 Posted November 15, 2012 Author Share Posted November 15, 2012 Hey guys. I'm taking a graphic design class where we have to come up with a concept and I chose to create an NBA basketball team. I chose to locate them in Pittsburgh and came up with the name The Hammers (playing off the whole "Steel City" identity). I also chose to keep the black and yellow theme that all their teams use. Anyways, I wanted to get some constructive criticism by other sports-loving designers on my ideas. Below are a couple ideas for logos I've made. Please feel free to critique the work and also let me know if any of these work well enough to move forward with and why/why not.Here they are:Thanks again guys for your time!

BrySmalls Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Holy hell! What exactly is going on here?Lol I thought you were just being ruthless with your critiquing.Oh I'm not that syndical. However, it's slightly amusing that that's the first reply post that forum users see. I'll edit it accordingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robmarty009 Posted November 15, 2012 Author Share Posted November 15, 2012 Here are 2 other ideas I had that I eventually cut. But then again, they might have potential, who knows: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robmarty009 Posted November 15, 2012 Author Share Posted November 15, 2012 So the last 2 work better as an NBA logo then the first 3? Interesting.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seancarter Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I thought that if Pittsburgh ever got NBA team they would be name the Pittsburgh Maulers after old USFL team but with different looking logo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
