-kj Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 I posted this originally way back in the requests forum, which turned out to the be wrong place. So, since I revisited the design, and the mods are asleep , I figured I'd re-post it here and get some feedback.The current design:The original thought:Last year's (also designed by me):The difference in colour between this year's and last is noticable, but I'm guessing last year (since I don't remember) I took some liberties and darkened the colours from the league's logo a bit. This year's is following the league's actual colours a bit better. Buy some t-shirts and stuff at KJ Shop!

winters in buffalo Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 I actually like the darker colors, but if you're trying to keep them true to what the league uses, then I guess these will do. Overall, a good design. One suggestion...find a better font for the numbers, or at least just fix the 2. No matter how many times I look at it, I keep seeing "zoo4".

paynomind Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 I like the current design. Very nice. Professional looking.I agree with the Z-004Alos, the white stripe oon the blue star in the background keeps catching my eye. I'd try to redo that somehow. NCFA Sunset Beach Tech - Octopi ΓΔΒ!

-kj Posted February 23, 2004 Author Share Posted February 23, 2004 Yeah, I pretty much hate the 2 in that font as well. I tried editing it a touch, but it doesn't seem to have made a difference, from what y'all're saying. Of course, I now can't seem to find that font on my computer (I originally started this on a different machine, that I no longer have access to), and WhatTheFont? can't seem to figure out what it is. Ergh.I tried the grey colour for that stripe at the top, and it looked kindof weird, too dulled (if that's a real term).Hrm, I just realized that the white outline around the blue stripe that crosses the H is much too strong--I forgot to make it smaller when I changed the outline around the rest of the AHA logo. D'oh! I'll have to work on that at home tonight. Buy some t-shirts and stuff at KJ Shop!

STL FANATIC Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 I prefered last years to this, but this is still very well done. The white stripe on the star a the top, and the crossing of the H have already been mentioned, and those are the only weak spots I see.

Phil Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 I prefer the "original thought" version. Has more perspective as opposed the "current design", which feels a lot more flat. I find the perspective of the "original thought" makes it feel more modern, more Z004, if you will Nice work Mockba, these are cool....and just to let you know, the moderators never sleep. But feel free to maintain that false sense of security. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-kj Posted February 24, 2004 Author Share Posted February 24, 2004 Well, I played with it more... and more and more and more, instead of going to sleep early like I'd told myself I would. Anyway, here's the current "latest" version:[EDIT: I couldn't decide between these two, so I added the second.]There are more versions in the directory. Buy some t-shirts and stuff at KJ Shop!

Phil Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 Well, I just realized that I like the strong thick outlines of the "original thought" also a little more than the drop shadow/multiple outlines... but otherwise this latest version is very nice.

Puckguy14 Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 I like that blue a lot better, stands out more from the orange silver and black. 2004 San Jose Sharks 7th Man Fan of the Year San Jose Gold Miners - 4x Lombardi Cup Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
