TruColor Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Hadn't heard about this one either:Huntsville (AL) - The Huntsville Stars today unveiled a brand new primary club logo. In keeping with the space theme that is so much a part of the history of the Huntsville community, the Stars new logo features an animated rocket with flame. Team colors will remain the patriotic red, white and blue.http://www.huntsvillestars.com/news/Default.asp?newsId=1397 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cappital92 Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Looks like a rejected Astros set. But it's still pretty nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rams80 Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 It's a decent upgrade, but I don't like the skewed, forced perspective of the primary logo wordmark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YELDARBfield Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Ugh. Downgrade. Sure, their primary and script marks needed a makeover, but this was definitely not the way to go. That typeface is overused, and this particular specimen is over-outlined as well. Also, this is so much better than that new Copperplate-esque 'H' logo.

Mac the Knife Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Better than what they had, but not as good as it could've been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patsox Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 ...maybe if everything wasn't mangled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agentrygraphics Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Although I'm not digging the font...the primary and tertiary logos look like they should go together. The H with the star and orbital thing look way too forced. Almost as if they were part of a rejected set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BallWonk Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 This would have been an acceptable bit of logo design in the period 1987-1991. Now, it just looks like a mismash of fonts, clip art, and text effects available in Windows 3.0. Some design instructor somewhere should save an image of that H cap logo as an example of how not to incorporate other shapes into typography.
