jimboqb12 Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 This concept I spent a little more time on. I didnt want it to be too much of a throwback but at the same time I thought it best to return to the old! I also spent alot of time wrestling with Adobe ImageReady and Photoshop and incorporating what I had created in those programs into good old Microsoft Paint! Im quite pleased with how it's come out. Of course there's definate room for improvement which Im hoping you can all help me with so heres my Falcons uni. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baseballking99 Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 These are good. I think the sleeve striping works well. But I think it would look better with the black helmets and I dont see the need for the gold. Otherwise I think it is good and fits the falcons well.

winghaz Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 I like the helmets, but not the sleeve and sock stripes. I think you need a more modern look on the sleeve and sock stripes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDuffy26 Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 I think that those look good. The only thing I don't like are the helmets. If you do infact go to the red, I think you should go back tot the old logo before the Vick era. Interesting Baseball fact: In 1960: Baltimore, Milwaukee, Cincinnati, and Pittsburgh had 2 AAA affiliates, while Los Angeles had 3 teams...and the New York Yankees had the Kansas City Athletics.Interesting Hockey fact: In 1974, the Buffalo Sabres draft Taro Tsujimoto of the Toyko Katanas with th 183 pick in the draft. It was later revealed that Taro didn't exist, but Taro is still listed as an offical draftee of the Buffalo Sabres in their Media Guide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 None I say none of the pants have striping consistent with the jerseys.

fishheatcats Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Red helmets all the way man. They just need stripes like the old red ones. Also lose the gold color, and you've got a winner!

Old School Fool Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 The gold outline on the logo is sick. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsox Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 The black looks really out of place. The rest...just not very original compared to what they wear now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gueman Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Love the red helmet and the gold, very old school.Remember from 66 to 69 old gold was part of their color scheme, black & red for UGA and gold and white for GT. But the gold was only used on the helmet stripe IIRC. I agree that the sleeve stripe and the pant stripe don't match. I never liked the black helmets that Glanville introduced. If you could redo the logo that would make it even better. Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys. P. J.

nolegboy Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Go back to the Red......this blows what they currently wear out of the water....they might have the worst uni's in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSky Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 I like these unis except for two things: the gold element, which looks out of place, and sadly, the sleeve stripes, which look terrific but just don't work well on modern-cut jerseys.

josdin00 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 If you're going to add gold to the color scheme, you need to make it more prominent. Adding it just as an extra stripe here and there makes it look like an afterthought (which, historically, it was) and out of place. That will be hard to do without making the falcons look like the 49ers. If you can do it, I think it would look nice, but the simple solution is to stick with red, white, and black.... and to stick with the red helmet.

jimboqb12 Posted January 10, 2008 Author Share Posted January 10, 2008 So I've changed the pant stripes and add the red helmet again, making a few adjustments in that i nw have stripes on the helmet and the current falcon logo is more like the original!Im going to frustrate you guys by insisting that I keep the gold in. I think it separates it from being a throwback design and adds a lil extra to the colour scheme. Anyway im continuing to enjoy ur feedback, just no requests to make any new logos! lol. MS Paint with a dabble in Photoshop is as far as I go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSky Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 One other problem with the sleeve striping is that it looks kind of familiar... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingerbreadmann Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Well yeah, plenty of teams use that striping.Also, you should always save as .png! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winghaz Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 The red helmets were better without the stripes.I know, they used to have red helmets with stripes. But they didn't look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geauxjames Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Am I wrong, or didn't they used gold as an accent for a few years?? "Fat white guys rule the world son" -TS... I should know, I'm one of 'em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
