2001mark Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Toronto's flag, if it applies here, looks weak yet its story helps a bit...It's not just a 'T', it's to emulate Toronto City Hall's two towers...That current flag was introduced once Metropolitan Toronto amalgamated into one Toronto proper... I guess they figured the one city hall could be used as a symbol.If you didn't know all that, it really does look like a weaksauce 'T'/embracing arc style generic. @2001mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2001mark Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 I didn't realize it was supposed to resemble City Hall... I think it's a good flag. It looks so pedestrian, like a public school flag or something. Then again, that's Toronto for you... everything council does is the safer choice.Further context, just because... Toronto's coat of arms is pretty sweet...That thing should be front & centre or at least featured on the city's flag. @2001mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greyraven8 Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Chamber of Commerce - not much to look at. If they were going for dull, uninspiring and lifeless I think they hit the nail on the head.Toursim logo is okay - have had better and worse over the years. Flag and coat of arms more interesting looking. "Just when I thought you'd said the stupidest thing, you keep on talking" - Hank Hill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still MIGHTY Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Anaheim used to run the entire Orange County tourism thing for a long time until this past year when they wanted to market themselves instead of the whole county. Now they have this nondescript "Visit Anaheim" logo:This is the one on the Visit Orange County website, playing right into the whole pop culture thing. And for that reason, I think it's awful. We're more than that. (And if you're from here, you don't call it "The" any way.) Forever summer is fine.Closer to me is my (basically) hometown of Laguna Beach. The script is very "Laguna Beach-y," for a term. You look at this logo and the colors, and if you've ever been to Laguna Beach, you'd say, "Yeah sure. That's it." | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
