SetScreens Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 I was sitting in a really boring meeting today, and my mind wandered onto the much maligned Thunder logo. I just can't believe that with a name like "Thunder", which could have so many connotations and interesting visual interpretations, they came up with such a lackluster look. Anyway, I started sketching and came up with this. It's a really staggeringly obvious concept, but i guess even the obvious was lost on whomever was in charge of that mess.Anyway, let me know what you think.

Coheed Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 I like it, but for an NBA logo, it looks too cartoonish to me. Like you would see it on a 5th grade basketball team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaha32 Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 its a really cool idea. not a primary logo. if the lettering was slightly less bubbly it would be better but i like it. i dont know if the sound waves are necessary but if you keep them it might look cool to make the sound waves less smooth and more rigid.

bohob Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 It's a good logo for a minor league baseball team, but not a professional basketball team. If you could make it more serious, then it would fit much better. And yes, it's still better than the logo they actually have.

The_Admiral Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Looks like Orange County Audio Systems or something. Good place to buy a car stereo. Pitch it to a stereo place in Anaheim. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conrad. Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 sorry to butt in here but does anyone know the name of the real thunder font arched above logo?Industria Boldas for the logo, i like the clever idea, but as ppl have said, it seems like an alternate logo for a more finished logo in a set. i like those colors btw, try to make something inspired by this, but a bit more involved, maybe with the whole word THUNDER.

BJBerthiaume Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 It is minor-leaguish, but so is their current logo which is very D-League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
