-kj Posted February 20, 2003 Share Posted February 20, 2003 So, the softball team I'm going to be on this summer is trying to name itself. We're pretty settle on a bear theme, just not sure which name. So, while I had nothing better to do today, I sketched out a logo idea for "The Grizz." (I know, some of you will hate the name. Try to focus on design here. The name on the logo can easily be changed.)After I found out what colours the team has in mind, here's what I have:[Modified, after much tweaking, to take out the second green shade.](And, look, SHB, not a hint of brown! Never you mind my original colour scheme...)Thoughts, besides the fact that I need to find a job? Buy some t-shirts and stuff at KJ Shop!

Phil Posted February 20, 2003 Share Posted February 20, 2003 I like it, as Snowcap said, it's strong. My concerns are twofold: there are too many highlights in there, and the drop shadow makes the lettering a little tougher to read than would be ideal. Perhaps lighten the green somewhat. The forest green is nice, but a lighter shade would be even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-kj Posted February 20, 2003 Author Share Posted February 20, 2003 I tried a lighter green, but I'm not sure I like the results. I did change the shadow/outline around a bit above, I think that helps. I also accidentally changed the text to silver, and I liked the result: silver textI found out today that "Grizzlies" and "Kodiaks" are near the top of the voting for the team name, so I made those as well: Grizzlies Kodiaks Buy some t-shirts and stuff at KJ Shop!

Snowcap30 Posted February 20, 2003 Share Posted February 20, 2003 the silver is the best font color to use IMO. good work still Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL FANATIC Posted February 20, 2003 Share Posted February 20, 2003 I like it, but as SyPhi said you have to many highlights. He looks kinda metalic. Still a good design. Also, I have no problem with the name Grizz since it is softball. That isn't meant to be offensive, but I just have different standards for major league teams and minor/amateur teams. For instance, if used right gradients are ok, but I basically hate seeing them in any major league teams scheme because then they technically have all those shades of the color and I hate that. I do however still hold them to the same basic logo quality, they can just be more experimental I guess.Anyway, clean it up a bit, and good job.
