R3G 91 Posted May 5, 2016 Could I get some CC on this? I'm still learning. EDIT: I was trying to just do this quickly, but now I have some time. I made this recently, and I saw this, and I wanted to merge the two. The thing was that I didn't save the file as a PSD, so I was having trouble with a new font up top. And the other thing I struggled with was the stroke on the mountains. the stroke on Photoshop's stroke FX sucks so I tried to make my own but line size is tough to work with. Any advice? I'm definitely gonna revise it. Fix the font and try to fix the mountains. I'll get around to trying to make some jerseys for them as well. Thanks in advance! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MontyK17 35 Posted May 5, 2016 It looks good. One thing is the middle vertical line isn't centre and out of curiosity why didn't you use the Jazz's current colour scheme? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks! Yeah I was strugging with the stroke of the mountain. I'm gonna try to figure something out. For the color scheme, I just liked the idea of switching it up with retro colors from '98. I can change it and show everyone what it looks like with their color scheme now, though. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luke13T 108 Posted May 5, 2016 Maybe change the outer ring to green or a color other than brown 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

QThaGAWD 18 Posted May 5, 2016 i like the updated versions with the jazz's current color scheme but, once i saw it , it couldn't be unseen. (the basketball with the mountains kinda look like an onion.) great work though. looking forward to your improvements. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
panthers_2012 1,164 Posted May 5, 2016 The word Utah looks wired to me. Just the big gap between the T and the A. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To be fully honest I did not know the Jazz wore those colours ever! the Redesign all look great especially the Purple one its my favourite 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JESSEDIEBOLT 147 Posted May 5, 2016 I think the text could use some work, but the ball/mountain logo is generally pretty solid. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PepMan33Conde 285 Posted May 5, 2016 The mountain/ball logo is perfect. Forget the circle and the 'UTAH JAZZ' text. That's just me. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steelman 156 Posted May 5, 2016 Interesting concept. I think the mountain range at the top of the ball should be more pronounced, seems a little small compared to everything else. I would wrap "Utah Jazz" around the bottom half of the roundel instead of trying to jam it above the mountain peaks. Or leave Jazz and have a larger "UTAH" across the middle center of the ball/roundel. Just a couple of ideas. I like the concept a lot. Nice start! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However, the mountain peaks are way too small. Any smaller application of this logo would make this difficult to replicate and the peaks would more than likely get lost. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brycew8 323 Posted March 22, 2017 Your logo's not bad but I've always wondered why most NBA logos have to incorporate a basketball? Also - I really wish the Jazz would change their name to reflect Utah instead of New Orleans. Just like the Lakers - the name makes zero sense. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought it used to be a rule or something that every primary logo must incorporate a basketball and have the full team name. But I guess that theory is wrong, since the Spurs, Blazers, Bulls and Nuggets have never really had a basketball in their logo. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brycew8 323 Posted March 22, 2017 If that's true, that's pretty crazy. Can you imagine if every NFL logo had to include a football or every NHL logo had to incorporate a puck or hockey stick? Yikes... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not a requirement, but it's proved a helpful marketing tool as the NBA has expanded its reach into parts of the world previously unfamiliar with basketball. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a requirement for just a logo in a team's logoset to have a basketball, and the primary to have the full team name. Old logos (such as the Spurs') are grandfathered in, but if they ever change, then they would have to either fit a basketball into their current logo or make a new logo with a basketball in it. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
