GMac Posted November 25, 2004 Share Posted November 25, 2004 K here we go told you I was working on something special and here it is... with help from my good buddy puckguy donating me some webspace as Im having server issues with my host... I give you my secondary for the riders... I have incorperated a few elements here... the old style wheat from the backward S days... the modern wheat from today, and the font from there "official wordmark... while some may argue the Double R is an Ottawa Rough Rider concept to them I say... "Yeah where are those Riders now"...lol oh yeah and I kept the black to a minimum...ps Creamer its a belt buckle... (stupid city kid...lol )C & C always appreciated... GDB...

eddie010 Posted November 25, 2004 Share Posted November 25, 2004 I've always adored Saskatchewan's colours, and you highlight their magnificence effectively. (Translation: Siiiiiiiick logo, man!)...The double R brings back memories, thanks a lot.Not to nit-pick or anything, but I find that the wheat on the sides doesn't fit the curves of the buckle's outline. Perhaps it was done on purpose, perhaps not.Bottom line: I'd definately sport that belt-buckle anyday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL FANATIC Posted November 25, 2004 Share Posted November 25, 2004 Looks great GMAC.I don't know which logo you originally did this idea for (this or the one you should me), but this is very strong looking.

zer0dotcom Posted November 25, 2004 Share Posted November 25, 2004 that looks great! the double R is sharp, You can really tell the buckel part from the intricities of the background. The bend of the wheat completes the ovular buckel shape.very awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stampman Posted November 25, 2004 Share Posted November 25, 2004 My only comment is that as they spell "roughriders" as one word-"RR" seems odd, "SR" would make more sense to me--but it is an improvement from ehat they have.

JamesCraven Posted November 25, 2004 Share Posted November 25, 2004 Make it an "S" and darken the green from Kelly to a deep Emerald, and you have a winner. "I better go take a long walk off a short pier or something."Some people on this bolard have told me to do just that.My "Ron Mexico" alias is "Jon Tobago".

Ez Street Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 Ok this thing looks like a Giant Colostomy Bag.............no wait, sorry that was GMac that looks like that. Uh........well geeeez......uh.............looks fine if you like CFL teams. Seriously, this is very nice and a good Alt logo for the current scheme they have. I always liked the 'Riders identity. Gotta love the Kelly Green, just don't do the all black crap. @DavidStreeter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReginaCanuck Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 it really should be SR. as a few people have pointed out they're the Saskatchewan Roughriders, not the Rough Riders. (the abbreviation is actually 'Riders, with an apostrophe.)here's an idea: get rid of the swirls in the background, and change the the wheat on the outside to make the whole thing resemble a CFL football (maybe change them to white with a green outline).
