Death To CrossOvers

[AHcreative]

Okay I've seen that crossovers have gotten out of hand in this thread, and even though I've done some, I too am getting tired of these. So I made a sig.

C&C Please!

That's a bit harsh, really.

While most of us may be tired of seeing crossovers and recolors, we have to remember that there are a lot of guys here who are just getting started. Most of us started learning how to use uniform templates by first experimenting with designs that were already familiar to us. It's unreasonable to expect a new designer to immediately start breaking out new all-original concepts straight out of the gate. That's on par with a high school student complaining that kindergarteners are practicing their ABC's.

It's when they don't advance themselves beyond crossovers that it gets annoying. But in the meantime, let 'em experiment with what they know.

Yes but if I recall, you guys (not you personally, but the board in general) did come down hard on Coltzfan101 when he is still a new member on the boards and was experimenting on stuff, I felt sorta bad for him, cause I have his AIM and we were talkin' and he said he was probably gonna stop posting in these threads. I don't mean to sound rude, but I am speaking my mind.

How about this, how about we only do it when we do the Iron Cross Over(not sure what they call it) which only happens once to twice a year...

Oh, and since you asked for C&C...

For a signature, your design is ill-proportioned. Something with a more horizontal layout would work better. Also, your capitalization is both inconsistent and incorrect.

A bolder font might make it more effective, but overall, your design is subpar.

Somebody's trying a little too hard to fit in.

If you don't like them, just don't look at them.

I personally enjoy them.

Sorry, so I got off on the wrong foot. Graveyard this if you want.

Nice of Coltzfan to host your avatar and signature, at any rate.

Ya, true.

Very well done.

I like them--if they're well thought out & not just done in 5 to 10 minutes to have something to post.

But if somebody posts it--I can look or ignore it.

SO let them post.

But also let them expect to get criticism as well.

Works both ways.

[Le Québécois]

Keep posting Crossovers...

Even if you guys saw it all, some of us are new in here and it's good to see what other people can do or imagine... This is why it's a concept forum...

Anyway!

I like those crossover and if I have some to post, I will even if you guys will say:

These crossover concepts are getting really ridicolous.

PLEASE DON'T DO THIS.

And it sure as hell isn't novel, not even in the least.

Maybe leaving the forum for a couple of months and then comeback, give us newbies time to explore your ''deja vu''.... ahahahhahahahahahah

Anyway! For me, it's really fun to see that some other prople have the same interests in Logos than I do... I always thought I was alone before I discovered this site ahhahahaha

Have fun guys, post, use the constructive comments to improve yourself and don't mind the negative comments...

I think that's the key.

Re-colouring the same design in different colours is OK the first few times.

After that, especially if it's one every 15 minutes, it's just showing a lack of thought.

Many of my first posts were in a thread about making the NHL all green--I forget who started it--so I did a few--but it wore off and I stopped.

But it was good experience in learning how to use templates, etc.

I know guys, I'm sorry, I saw everyone posting about how they hated crossovers, and I wanted a good rep. I just got caught up in the moment. Heck I was lying to myself too, I do sorta like the occasional crossover.

HOW ABOUT "DEATH TO ENORMOUS SIGNATURES"

Can there be a remedial course on how NOT to conduct yourself on the boards? You and Coltzfan seriously need some fluffing help. I really hope you guys pay more attention in school than you do on the boards. Geez...

40 lashes with a wet noodle for you...

ramsfan:

the key to a good rep around here isn't to follow the crowd. Just be yourself, post your ideass, be mindful of others, and have a good time.

greg, settle down dude, it's just a message board, he hasn't done anything seriously bad. Many more moronic people have pasted through this board in the past

I'll leave this open so people can discuss about crossovers and such, like Stamp and rme have, but if you're going to jump on someone for something minor like this, your posts are no better than those of the people you are bashing

Agree.

I have produced some horrible junk, a lot of it the same as other junk I've produced.

When I first started it was re-colouring the Miami U Nike Template for different teams. (I still like that template, though it looks horrible on Oregon, the only team I seen pics of wearing it)

I think I did about 5 before it was time to move on. Detroit, BC Lions and one of the comps were 3 of them, but there were more.

But it got me working with templates and thinking of other things I could add.

I've even worked my way up to striped socks on football and hockey uniforms!!
