TheAK47 Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 I have been sketching a logo for the Knicks which are the team I represent in my sim league that is starting in 1995, I colored it in and was wondering if I could get some C and C. I know its probably not that great but paper and pens are all I have as I can't seem to figure out Photoshop...C+C PLEASE!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CS85 Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 It's a cool idea but you can't really have an orange apple. Quote "You are nothing more than a small cancer on this message board.

scottysprings Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Yeah, it looks more like the shape of a peach than an apple, not mention it's orange.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAK47 Posted July 8, 2008 Author Share Posted July 8, 2008 Well colors aren't that big of a deal, I just tried it using the Knicks orange and blue, I'm actually going to try a few different combo's including making the basketball/apple red.

mania Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 To me, it's just way too similar to Mets stuff. Off The Top Rope: A Pro Wrestling Podcast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAK47 Posted July 8, 2008 Author Share Posted July 8, 2008 Well I got the inspiration for the skyline from the Mets logo, but I really think that the basketball/apple could turn into something unique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Wolf Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 That's actually a pretty cool idea. Orange for the apple does come up as a concern simply because people typically associate apples with red (green's better by the way). Then again, I can't think of anybody who associates navy blue with the Irish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJack Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 I think its a really cool idea. I'm pretty new to this logo design thing, but would you mind if I took a shot at it? I can't promise spectacular results, but it'd be fun for me to try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheAK47 Posted July 8, 2008 Author Share Posted July 8, 2008 I also think part of the peach look may be due to the orange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking it was an actual alternate logo, but it was just a concept that really stuck with me.So, with that being said, getting around the color, it is a good idea in theory.

Yeah, that Mets apple was actually blue and looked decent so I guess its worth experimenting with different colors. Anyway, I think the idea here could work and the renditions above show that. However, I think it would look best if the tallest building were in the middle. I don't know why, but it just seems that would look better to me.LT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Here is my finished product of what we went over before.Just a thought, but the use of the WTC Twin Towers would probably not go over all that well with the general public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheAK47 Posted July 8, 2008 Author Share Posted July 8, 2008 Here is another version:- I tried a darker blue- I tried a darker red for the apple- I tried ltravisjr's suggestion of making the middle building the biggest, although I might want to try it larger.Tell me what you think.

TwinsTerritory Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 I like JayJackson's. Is there a way to put some blue in there? Twins-Territory.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayJaxon Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 I like JayJackson's. Is there a way to put some blue in there?Thanks, but the design belongs to TheAK47, last night I was showing him the different steps I took based on his drawing. He liked it and that is why I posted it here, so everyone can see what he was trying to do. About the towers, I guess it depends on how you look at it. I was in the Marines for 6 years, and would not dare disrespect the memory of those lost in that tragedy. Look at it as a tribute. Simple as that.

TwinsTerritory Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Oh no, I didn't want to take it to use. I was just curious to see what it might look like with some blue on it. You did a nice job with it. Twins-Territory.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
