  1. Making exact duplicates of older logos would be a great service to the community! Would you be willing to start with these St. Louis Cardinals historical "birds on the bat" logos, noting the differences in the evolution of the birds on the bat design over the years? The version on the Cardinals' page on the main site that is labelled as "1924 - 1948" should actually be 1936 - 1948; and the one that is labelled "1957 - 1997" should actually be 1966 - 1997. If you can do the other birds on the bat logos shown on this resource (other than the 1951 - 1955 and the 1966 and later logos on the sheet below, which are already on the main site), that would be great: Thanks in advance for your willingness to make these older logos! Hi, I sent this in to UniWatch last year as apart of the article we published, and the artist (on behalf of the St. Louis Cardinals) would appreciate that you do not try and duplicate these graphics, as they are already digitized, and those digitized versions have been deemed authentic. All other St. Louis Cardinals fan created graphics are not authentic and for obvious reasons should not be trusted. Thank you for your understanding. Hello, who are these "I", "we", and "artist" you speak of? Links please. What's UniWatch? What article are you speaking of? Where was it published? Links please. What happens when 'amateurs' 'duplicate' sports graphics, or any graphics for that matter? Where can we see these authentic digitized graphics? Who deems digitized versions as authentic? Okay, so we, amateurs, shouldn't 'trust' any concepts / graphics / 'duplicates' created by other amateurs? Where do you draw the line between duplicates and concepts? Where do we draw the line between 'pro' and 'amateur'? Links please, if you should have any, for us to better understand, what you are implying with your very first post. Is that what you're saying here? What happens when non St. Louis Cardinals fans / amateur artists 'duplicate' / create concepts? What are these obvious reasons you speak of? What do you mean by 'trust'? Any more links you can help us understand what you're saying here? You see, we're 'amateurs' here, creating concepts and would appreciated your understanding. Thank you so much for your understanding us 'amateurs' here at boards.sportslogos.net Wow! I just realised the original artist is well over 114 years old! Is she / he okay? How is his / her health? Does she / he still create graphics for the St. Louis Cardinals? Please tell him / her "Hi!" from us amateurs here at boards.sportslogos.net. Thank you so much, Minor League Guy Uni-Watch is the blog of Paul Lukas, an ESPN columnist who is the number one journalist in uniform related news. I love the site and read it everyday. The article linked here is Paul Lukas interviewing St. Louis Cardinals designer Gary Kodner. Kodner was frustrated by MLB/Majestic branned merchandise and onfield attire that incorrectly displayed logos and scripts past and present. Kodner's requests to MLB and Majestic to portray the Cardinals logos correctly were blown off, so he dilligently digitized and catologued all the correct logos and details of the franchise to avoid unauthentic attire in the future. After reading the article I gained a better understanding of where minor league guy is coming from. What I think minor league guy, cokeologist and gatorhunter dont quite grasp is that Ren69's thread is about taking old dated logos and updating them to have a fresh look, not digitizing old logos exactly. Ha! Ya learn somethin' new everyday! Thank you so much for posting the info. I won't bother clicking the links, I think you answered my questions quite well, thank you. Who is this Paul Lukas fellow, what are his credentials? Is he an artist, a designer, has he worked in a uniform factory? Probably not, would be my guess. Correct me if I'm wrong. Oh, is he the fellow that sells laminated cards?

  4. Ren, did you make the future Milwaukee Bucks Dancers logo, Emerald Rainbow? Is "D" for dancers?:
  5. They're beautiful! 2014-15 Bambi and Emerald Rainbow. Thank you so much! You even put them on a diet, ha!
  6. Thanks Elwood! I'll look into that, appreciate the help. Happy to help. Here’s more info from photobucket, Bandwidth Exceeded (Look Who's Popular). For example, your winter Bango (thank you so much for making this), I copied it to my photobucket account so it won’t affect your bandwidth, but when others are linking your logos directly from your account that uses up your allotted free bandwidth for the month. When this happened to me I joined imgur and loaded pictures from there until photobucket reset. I’ve made my photobucket albums private in order to alleviate this from happening again: My first and last attempt at "updating" Bambi (tinkered with the green)
  7. Ren, I believe your issue is the number of outside views, not necessarily no. of photos you’ve uploaded. There should be no need to delete photos, just join another like imgur and photobucket should automatically reset back to regular bandwidth in a month. I know from experience.
  8. Here are some clearer images: From an old deadstock MLB licensee t-shirt for future reference:
  9. First Mongol to reach the highest rank in Sumo history, the 68th Grand Champion Asashoryu's "Historical Champion" 2010 retirement ring(click to enlarge image):
  10. For me this thread is a book, it tells a story about Ren's genuine love for things old through drawings and paintings. It's what brings me back, to turn the page, for the next picture.
  11. Edit: To clarify any misunderstandings, this picture of Robert Indiana's MECCA art was only meant as a compliment and never a request.
  12. Is this what you're looking for? Because this would be their alternate jersey logo:
  13. Sticker, program, game worn patch from '73 and for good measure, a fun Knicks mascot. Does anyone else see a NY monogram?
