It just kills me that the Brewers’ throwback logo was accidentally altered when a designer at MLB Properties messed up the Illustrator file. Hey do you have a visual of that? first i'm hearing of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they could have a mascot dress-up uniform where they wear the M on the helmet, and go with Aqua jerseys with BYU-style white bibs and navy trim?

That was caused by a goofy error? You'd think there'd be a vetting process to catch that. Hilarious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s a science to composing and constructing vector artwork. Over the years, I’ve found that building great artwork is just as much a skill as the creative part of the process. It’s quite a bit more technical and rigid, though, which is why many designers aren’t good at it, even if they’re good designers. +1 on the Dolphins helmet whats most frustrating about logos like the Panthers and 'Canes though, is it gets put through a large process with so many people seeing it before they go out and they still end up where they did. theres lots of variables in the process that could influence the concept or general look, but how many people on the creative side see them and still allow craftsmanship, or lack thereof, like that to go out? maybe one designer works on it, but theres multiple people that get their eyes on it too— design is never done alone. both logos look like first versions that got final approval. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCarp1231 Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 To me, it's not much of an alternate logo, but for some odd reason I like the inclusion of the circle/ring the Colts are using for their Twitter account: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothamite Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Whatever it’s supposed to be, it’s a terrible choice. The circle really clashes with the not-round horseshoe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's on their Instagram also, and similar designs are used inside the pics. Looks weird around the logo inside the avatar though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 It’s fine for dates or list items. It’s pretty awful around their logo. Especially as an avatar. Why you would want to make your logo less clear and less identifiable is beyond me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandMooreArt Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 thats all part of the 2017 Colts marketing campaign, #ColtsForged. a lot of the elements revolve around branding irons and whatnot; horseshoe stuff. the "midwest beige" or whatever (i just call it Farmer's Tan) is a part of that as well. there were some elements i didnt see used this year too like a "100% beef" tag that was intended for OL images that would have expanded this look, but all for the best they kept things to a minimum. as a fan, im not a fan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
