gueman Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Just and idea. If I had the skills I would love to create a crazed butcher or somthing. Instead I give you a packing box. And I am sure it will remind some of the game Q-Bert. Ravage me if you must. I did try to link to the past with a dark blue outline of the box, and I changed the color green slightly.Mods, can you correct the heading to say Packers Helmet?Thanks Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys.

DrBear Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 Reminds me of... Yeah, I'd have to agree with Q*bert... "@!#?@!"That lettering is a bit too small to see from the stands (rather like the Raiders lettering). And I don't think fans think of The UPS Store when they hear Packers.

It was just an exercise in creativity. I really would like to see a demented meat packer, sorta looking like Daniel Day Lewis in Gangs of New York.

steiny_ramone Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 A packer is a hard thing to depict. This is fairly simple, and recognizable and represents a packer. Therefore I like it. It could make a good alt logo. facespace?http://www.myspace.com/seancalcottmusic http://www.myspace.com/forgottentoys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigboy1083 Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 I thought that they were the Green Bay "Cheese" Packers. Thanks KaTo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's great you've taken a different approach. "One of my concerns is shysters show up and take advantage of people's good will and generosity".

LetsGoAdmirals Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 I thought that they were the Green Bay "Cheese" Packers. Nope, they're named after a meat packing plant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrBear Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 The Packers did try a butcher mascot once - when the NFL had its "Huddles" kid mascots going, the Green Bay one was a bearded guy in an apron named Packy Packer carrying a string of sausages. You can imagine how well that went over. (The only one still going is that demented-looking cowboy in Dallas) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can imagine how well that went over. (The only one still going is that demented-looking cowboy in Dallas) Well that was aimed a kids, and chicks I guess. But that is what I meant, well sans sausages. I also thought of those packing hooks the stevedores used back in the day but they didn't use them on meat I don't believe. I think if someone came up with a killer image it would be accepted IMHO. Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys. P. J.

gueman Posted May 13, 2006 Author Share Posted May 13, 2006 Well here are two updates. I dropped the blue. I think I am done with the box theme for now. C&C as always.
