rtrich11 Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 I did this Browns logo a while ago- before they came out with their "B in football" logo. Their's isn't bad, but not something I'd dig much on a cap or shirt. I tried to make mine simple, but not plain. New, but not offensive to old-school styles. Not something for a helmet, just for merchandise or decoration. Anyway, just sharing/comparing.Have any of you tried this? I'd love to see.To see the Browns' mark: http://www.clevelandbrowns.com/ cafepress.com/artbyrichards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buster04 Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 A comment if I may, you should sarif the "B" and the "S" to go with the angles on the top left/right of the word mark outline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtrich11 Posted August 28, 2003 Author Share Posted August 28, 2003 BrownsLAX, I like your Browns wordmark and "B" logo. It works very well for me. The unis look really good, too. cafepress.com/artbyrichards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JQK Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 THat is very good. Although i do like the logomark the Browns adopted, this is very nice. I like the crest look it has. Seeing that plasterd at the 50 would be very pleasing to the eyes... Stay Tuned Sports Podcast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buster04 Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 Reaper yes you did, my guys love it. we used it on tons of stuff.. did you evcer put your logo portfolio back up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buster04 Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 Can I ask how you manipulate the font to be curved on the bottom and straight on top? I have Illustrator and Photoshop..thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtrich11 Posted August 28, 2003 Author Share Posted August 28, 2003 Here is my alternate version, which I struggled with the cursive font. It's a bit more retro, but I think I like the crest above because of it's usability. The Wordmark alone did look ok without the circle, though.As for the curved font- In Illustrator 9 you have to use a plug in like KPT effects (which is no longer made). Illustrator 10 has this stuff built in. cafepress.com/artbyrichards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reaper98 Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 Reaper yes you did, my guys love it. we used it on tons of stuff.. did you evcer put your logo portfolio back up?I haven't had my design business going for many moons...I've kinda been laying under the radar as I had a really busy season with PowerHockey and whatnot(just got back from Nationals the other day). I'm currently taking a break from everything extracurricular at the moment. I may get things rolling again in the next month or so, though.

buster04 Posted August 28, 2003 Share Posted August 28, 2003 TR- I figured out the curve effect thing, but what about the thick stroke you apply? When I go thick it just starts bleeding over to the next letter?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtrich11 Posted August 29, 2003 Author Share Posted August 29, 2003 I think we've gotten a little OT here...Make the word a compound path. You will have to recolor the item.Hmmm. I guess not too many folks have tried doing the Browns. Oh well. cafepress.com/artbyrichards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

webdav Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 TR- I figured out the curve effect thing, but what about the thick stroke you apply? When I go thick it just starts bleeding over to the next letter??You can just do an "Offset Path..." command, pick the thicknes, then change the color.

webdav Posted September 3, 2003 Share Posted September 3, 2003 Webdav,thanks, I did the offset path and it made the text look all buddly, when I change the color it does not show the original text? Help, I am a complete novice at this. thanksIt ends up making both objects the same color and grouped. So you have to ungroup and then choose the thicker one, change the color, send to the back.
