mustangdmg Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 Hey everyone... I'm new to the community. I have always wondered what were the proposals of the logo change back in 1992 or 1993 when they changed from the old Pat the Patriot logo to the Flying Elvis logo. I'm pretty sure Robert Kraft had an array of logo proposals to choose from. Does anybody know what they were? I'm learning and playing with PhotoShop. I'm really impressed with the people who did the concepts of the Vikings, Cardinals and others. I'm very sentimental of the old Pat the Patriot logo. I wish they'd keep it but modernize it like the Cardinals, Seahawks and the Falcons did. Like I said, I'm a rookie in PhotoShop. Anybody want to volunteer to do an extreme makeover of Pat?

artvandelay Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 They were designed by a firm called Evenson Design Group. I saw one other concept and it was a straight-on head shot of the patriot. If I have time I will scan it and upload it. "...and you want to be my latex salesman."

Beantown77 Posted February 14, 2005 Share Posted February 14, 2005 IIRC,The design change was not conducted under the Kraft ownership but rather it was commissioned by then owner James Orthwein. Orthwein was also the one who hired Bill Parcells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avenger Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 evensondesign.com Any site that requires flash to view isn't a site worth viewing -- hohum I'm gonna go ahead and disagree with you on that one. It's not 1996 anymore. People have Flash now. That being said, Evenson's website has no reason to be in Flash. They could have just as easily done it in HTML. They completely underutilized the tool.

Dallas Cowboy Kevin Posted February 15, 2005 Share Posted February 15, 2005 Are you guys seeing the front facing logo on this site, or the current Pats logo? All I see is the current (although the star looks slightly different). If you do have a pic of the front facing logo, please post it if you can. I'm curious to see how it looks. ThanksKevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThanksKevin I only saw the "current" logo, not a front facing one. I looked for it, also, didn't just expect it to jump out at me.I would also be curious to see it. It's where I sit.

BBTV Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 not sure if this was ever an issue ... but it would have been better to make the patriot FACE silver or light grey, not pure white~ as there were PLENTY of African American PATRIOTS... and ofcourse the NFL is largely African American. Never thought about it like that. That's not a bad point.
