Pittsburgh MLS Concept

[Rampart]

Did you ever tinker around with the fonts and try PITTSBURGH in Old English? Just a thought (which you have probably already read).

I did tinker around with several differant fonts. I wanted something to be bold and look good in all caps. Old English had two major drawbacks when I played with it. 1. It doesn't look very good in all caps unless it's tatooed on the torso of a gang member. 2. It's a narrow font that looks bad stretched out. With the size of the banner, it would need a lot of stretching.

It was a good idea. It would really give it a majestic look, but the logo would have to be built around the font instead of the other way around.

Oooh. That last crest is terrific.

I personally like the blue and white checkers better than the black and gold. The latter looks much too much like a taxicab. It might look a bit better if the vertical version were a little thinner, slightly smaller than the size of the crest.

Yep...WE DO!

Rampart found us and suggested that we use his design and helped with the current design that you see. We told him that the Pittsburgh Riverhounds were looking for a new crest/logo and suggested that he get in contact with them. I hope he did. We were hoping that the club would adopt his logo for the club but I guess the FO has a different idea of what a good logo looks like.
