vicfurth Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 I have a couple of observations that I don't know if they've been mentioned before. They concern similarities between design markets that you, the reader, may not put together...#1) Golden State Warriors and the Silver Surfer (from the "Rise of the Silver Surfer" movie)#2) Houston Texans script and Taco BellWhile the Taco Bell logo isn't as similar, there are still some close areas. So, anyone else have any similarities that bug them? Feel free to post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Does Art Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 The warriors was kind of bound to happen I mean it's a guy with a mask, that's built, so is the silver surfer. Hi, how are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Falcon Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Funny, I always thought that Warriors logo looked like the character Vega from Street Fighter: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zer0dotcom Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 ^ it looks like a touch o both. The Warrior looks like he's wearing a mask liek Vega (who frusterated the hell out of me in the Origonal Street Fighter 2) but the blue is more Surferish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmat Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 I always thought the Wariors logo looked like the Rocketeer. I only come around here once in a while to annoy you people, and by people I mean you mutha :censored:as. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VitaminD Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 I always thought the Wariors logo looked like the Rocketeer.Rocketeer's a good call. What always bugged me about the GS Warrior is that his headpiece looks like it's coming apart at the very top... whazzupwitdat?And avery... sorry, I am not seeing the similarities you're going for. The Seahawks' wordmark has rounded elements on the 2 round letters, while the Falcons' wordmark expressly does NOT use curves for the many (normally) curved letters in the team nickname ("C", "O", "S"), to the point of it being compromised from a design standpoint - nearly half the letters are typically curved in written/printed English, yet here it's all straight lines and sharp angles. Also, compare the placement of the serifs on the common letters "A" and "S" - they're nowhere close to one another. Even the letter "T" in both city names looks different in the 2 fonts being compared. Just sayin', is all... "Start spreading the news... They're leavin' today... Won't get to be a part of it... In old New York..."In order for the Mets' run of 12 losses in 17 games to mean something, the Phillies still had to win 13 of 17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leedsunited Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 I think the odd serif and the city name placement in relation to the team name is similar enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-(dp)- Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 I think the odd serif and the city name placement in relation to the team name is similar enough.I think those two, as well as a few others (bengals and cardinals I think, maybe more) were all designed by the same place. I am pretty sure I learned that from here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthSidePride Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 It has been a few years now and I think that no one in any league is in more need for a logo revamp than the Golden State Warriors. Bring it back to Yellow and Blue, throw in some white and redo your logo. Hell go back to the state logo. No one has any idea what that Warrior is... It was intriguing when I was 8, but now it just looks ridiculous. Bring me the trolley cars! HereCometheHawks.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrewharrington Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 The Seahawks, Texans, Falcons, Bengals and Cardinals were all designed by Mark Verlander, which is why the wordmarks are all very, very similar in layout.
