Waffles Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 This is so bush league. I can't believe a successful, savvy, wealthy NFL team would not only resort to what is essentially glorified, sanitized spec work, but then "reward" the "winner" a fraction of the actual value of professional design work when they will make untold amounts of money slapping this logo on t-shirts, hats, and beer coozies.This is disgusting and unprofessional. Shame on the Indianapolis Colts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lich0037 Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 I think it might be worth a shot. It would definitely be a good portfolio piece. Sports Branding and Design | The Minnesota High School Helmet Project | Eric's Helmet Collection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBTV Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 This is certainly better than sending it to some corporate design firm that will produce another sterile, soulless design.I'd tend to agree.Do you know that the design firms only produce sterile, souless designs? Or is it that those are the ones that the sterile, soulless owners decide to go with?People here could submit what most of us feel are top notch designs, and the owners could still pick one of the sterile soulless ones.

fishheatcats Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Here's my entry: I know there's going to be a thousand of them, but I'm doing a modernized version of this one, sans the helmet(since you can't use the horseshoe). Since you can submit two, I'll do a totally original one as well, but here's a preview:It still needs some tweaking. I'm thinking of adding a little dust puff behind his leg, since mine is more kicking up dirt than bucking. As far as the Colts being cheap goes, I don't think that's the case at all. I think this is great for the fans of the team and/or the NFL. Instead of shilling out a million bucks to a big design firm, they are letting the fans directly submit what they want, and as a bonus, all it costs them is $1000 bucks. I'm looking at this as an opportunity. I'll take 1000 bucks and a logo design for a pro franchise, and a NFL franchise to boot! I'm sort of an honorary Colts fan too, because my whole family was Baltimore Colts fans back before I was born, and I hate the Pats sooooo much lol.I wish more teams would do things like this. I love designing sports logos, and the number of times I would be able to design one for a pro team is probably ZERO, and I'm a graphic design student/soon to be full time artist. Contests like this give everyone a shot, not just the guys who have jobs at giant design firms. Flight 19 ::: Fort Lauderdale Soccer Supporters ::: DEFEND THE FORT!

SG30 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Call me crazy, but is this not plagiarism? Sans the helmet and add some small detail, mixed with cleaning up a rastered logo, and here's your logo. Again, I'm not sure if this is considered plagiarism, but it seems like it. You're gaining profit off of someone else's work, if they choose this. I would probably bet against sending this one.Hmm...well their both colts logos. If its chosen, its more or less just an update. But you still have a point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it would only be plagiarism if the design was for the Cowboys or the Broncos. Plus, I didn't say it was anything it isn't, yeah it's an update. I didn't claim it was an original idea.

The team owns those logos, and thus updated them. They no longer are owned by the original creator. So, your logo could be considered since it was not proposed by the team, maybe? But since you created it with the intent of modernizing a logo they may own, Baltimore Colts verses Indianapolis Colts. I really don't know. It seems like it's on the edge. I'm not trying to put you down or anything, or say you cheated and you should be burn at the stake for this. It's just hard to say what is and isn't. Look at the Ravens fiasco. But the Colts might want your logo, regardless. It's very well crafted.Yeah I see what your saying, it is a bit of a grey area. I guess we'll find out huh? I know it's kind of iffy so that's why I'm gonna come up with one that is 100% original as well. Flight 19 ::: Fort Lauderdale Soccer Supporters ::: DEFEND THE FORT!
