CDunn Posted June 18, 2003 Share Posted June 18, 2003 the logo on the third concept is one registered by the Tampa Bay Lightning but never used. I found it on USPTO and colored it in. So it isn't mine, but be my guest to work with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sterling84 Posted June 18, 2003 Author Share Posted June 18, 2003 Well, hey...I am glad to see there is some enthusiasm for this. Rock on.Alright, I won't do a thing to stand in the way of any momentum...throw any and all ideas this way. But I will say that every army needs some direction, if not a leader. While I don't think I necessarily fit the bill for that, how bout we agree to sort things out from the top down. We've already got some awesome new and revisited logo concepts but the color set issue is already coming into play.Lets start with that. I think we can agree they dont have bad colors at all, just use them horribly. I like the hawaii blue, black, and silver.......I also like the idea of possibly adding an accent color...second lighter blue at least to the palette. But that kind of thing should be majority rules...not just what I want.THen we can bust out even more logos, fonts, jerseys within a given criteria. I'll work on my suggestions tonight. I've got some logo sketches I did that I'll have to convert to digital too.THanks for the support...I already love what's coming in.

puckcool22 Posted June 18, 2003 Share Posted June 18, 2003 here are my topics, i give full credit to roger clemente for this jersey idea, it is from his hurricanes jerseyi give full credit to nitroseed for the logoi didnt put numbers or a name on there because i think we could find or make a font unique to the jersey, c/pblack, hawaii blue trimblack, current blue trimhawaii blue, black trimcurrent blue, black trimu might have to expand the pictures in the window Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkrdevil Posted June 18, 2003 Share Posted June 18, 2003 Count me in. I agree, let's get the colors first so we know in what direction to do the logo and woodmark in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whchoclte Posted June 18, 2003 Share Posted June 18, 2003 Here are two designs I just did.Trying to incorporate more than just a lightning biolt into teh designs, I brought in a palm tree indegnious to Tampa.http://www.geocities.com/whchoclte29/tblightning.htmlThe colors can be changed, but I had to try something different. The bottom right is my fav, simple yet effective.Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puckcool22 Posted June 18, 2003 Share Posted June 18, 2003 palm tree design is awesome, that could be the perfect shoulder patchjust no red, red should never ruin the lightnings perfect color schemealso as good as that font looks, im pretty sure it is nashvilles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDunn Posted June 18, 2003 Share Posted June 18, 2003 those are really nice. I do think the colors will need to be changed. The only problem is, the Florida Panthers use a palm tree on their shoulder logo.Now to the color options. Personally, I like the Hawaii Blue, deep Blue, and "dark" silver. Here is my lightning jersey without any logos or numbers, but you get a good feel for the colors.Lightning in new colors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whchoclte Posted June 18, 2003 Share Posted June 18, 2003 I am not an avid Hockey follower so I didnt realize the font was the same, it can easily be replaced.I just think there needs to be more than just a bolt on their main design.Here is the main one with Blue, Silver and Blackhttp://www.geocities.com/whchoclte29/lightningupdate.htmlGreg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discrim Posted June 18, 2003 Share Posted June 18, 2003 as the great Emeril Lagasse says often...BAM!!!one is sleeveless and you may have seen it before. the other two use nitroseed's logo and are similar in style with the sleeveless.

jkrdevil Posted June 18, 2003 Share Posted June 18, 2003 Here's a Tampa logo using a puck, it's not that great but maybe someone with better photoshop skills can improve upon it.Puck Logo C/P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted June 18, 2003 Share Posted June 18, 2003 whchoclte and nitroseed, both of your logos are fantastic.whchoclte, the blue and green version rocks. yowza.nitroseed (your sig image is wicked cool), I'd like that logo a little more if the bolt was a little more vertical.That said, allow me to toss my logo in here. Most of you have already seen it, but if this is where everybody's depositing their TBay concepts, might as well let mine join in.SyPhi's T-Bay LogoBe kind...

CDunn Posted June 18, 2003 Share Posted June 18, 2003 yes, wcchoclte's version with green is really good, but, I'll say it again because nobody seemed to see it the first time, THE PANTHERS ALREADY USE A PALM TREE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMS1122 Posted June 18, 2003 Share Posted June 18, 2003 i think the plam tree idea is great...despite the panthers using something similar. i dont think it would be a problem.anyway since my mind cant come up with great promary logo ideas today i decided to make a wordmark (to go with almost any logo) i'd love to hear your thoughts/suggestions GMS on dribbbleErie Apparel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CDunn Posted June 19, 2003 Share Posted June 19, 2003 Obviously we want to be original, but maybe something like what the Lake Elsonire Storm uses. The rolling cloud, the bolt, maybe a text that says LIGHTNING where is says storm now, NO eyes in ours however! To show you the logo I'm talking about, copy and paste the link.StormCould someone with Illustrator whip up something with the rolling thundercloud and all that using blue black and silver in your free time? I think it would look cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puckcool22 Posted June 19, 2003 Share Posted June 19, 2003 it seems as if a lot of people are trying to throw out the black in tampa bays color schemewhile black it being over used certain teams it should be a main color (maybeSJ BOS PIT DAL maybe LA CHI) and tampa bay as well.lightning a lot of times implies a night sky, so black i think comes to mind, and black and silver is a must win combo, plus blue and these 3 colors and you cant go wrong, unless u do the jerseys tampa bay does Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
