Audiodrama Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 Vegas gold cause the A's should be in Vegas anyway...C&C as always.
gordie_delini Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 oh that is SO much better than what they have now - bravo!
oakland ehs Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 1. don't say they should be in vegas.2. i like it a lot. still more of a fan of the yellow/gold than vegas gold, but it still looks good.3. prefer the current "A's" as opposed to the "A's" used in the concept, which are from pre 1996 or something like that.4) like the white alt, hate the green one. your green is too dark imo anyways.5) and finally HOW CAN YOU GET RID OF THE ELEPHANT ON THE BASEBALL. SHAME ON YOU.still a very good concept though.
The_Admiral Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 1) Why do they need to be in Vegas? Northern California is a better market.2) Why do they need Vegas gold? It's become overused, and their existing green and gold contrasts perfectly well. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫

Plus Oakland is a terriffic market for baseball.

Moser316 Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 Call me nuts, but the A's just don't look right in Vegas gold. It either loses its contrast between the two colors or the gold looks too washed out (depending on what you're looking at)...
patsox Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 This is a great concept, but what they have is better.

OnWis97 Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 I like it. Great update.I don't thik the poster is implying that they should move to Vegas (see the "Oakland" road jersey), but that "Vegas Gold" is being used.

shootachtung Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 The vegas gold doesn't really contrast well enough. Their current green-and-gold is a lot better. The all-green alt almost looks black on my computer screen, and what I think are vegas gold stripes appear white. In other words, it's too dark. It is a great concept though. Good job!

LMU Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 This is a catch-22 for me. I love it, but at the same time, it's just not the A's. There's absolutely nothing wrong with what they currently have, and I think their home unis with the white cleats rank amongst the classiest uniforms in the league.
LEWJ Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 great job another tremendous concept. | BROWNS | BUCKEYES | CAVALIERS | INDIANS |
Discrim Posted August 17, 2005 Posted August 17, 2005 3. prefer the current "A's" as opposed to the "A's" used in the concept, which are from pre 1996 or something like that. close enough...the A's used here is from 93 and before, then they switched to the current A's in 94.

FiddySicks Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 Vegas or Sacramento? Go with a move to San Jose and change the green instead to Aqua.

The Giants wont give up that territory and the whole Aqua/Teal phase died in the mid to late 90s Giants won't give up that territory? SF/OAK/SJ are all considered the same market. The A's moving there really wouldn't hurt the market. As for the aqua, I threw that in there just to have a tie-in with the Sharks.

McCall Posted August 18, 2005 Posted August 18, 2005 3. prefer the current "A's" as opposed to the "A's" used in the concept, which are from pre 1996 or something like that. close enough...the A's used here is from 93 and before, then they switched to the current A's in 94. Has anyone actually looked at the A's current hats? They use the "A's" that Unwind used, the supposed "old" one. The one that everybody says is the current one is only used on the logo and nowhere else. They still use this one on the hats, and I think it looks better, too. I was gonna post an A's concept, but it looks so similar to his, except I use the current yellow (didn't even think of using Vegas gold), and the home and roads are vests with one green alt, much like his. After seeing Unwind's, I've decided there is no need for me to post mine at this time. I actually like his quite a bit. Do I think they should switch to vegas gold, I don't know. Don't really care. But the way he used it, it looks really sharp and I like it (except for the gold bills, but that's just me. I'm kinda against metallic bills, but they still look cool, in theory)Keep it up Unwind. You continue to amaze me. (just to, in a friendly, fun matter, irk some opposers of overused . It's all in fun, guys )Included above are the A's home and road hats from minorleagues.com. Notice the logos? https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall

Audiodrama Posted August 18, 2005 Author Posted August 18, 2005 oakland ehs, you're actually wrong. Here is a picture of the current A's hat, courtesy of lids.com:Notice that it's the logo you claimed was used on the pre-1994 hats. Just to back it up, here is Danny Haren's current MLB.com profile shot, bearing the same hat:
