love the tigers alt, im not old school so i like alt jerseys. the tigers have a very boring uni set and i think the addition of a simple alt like this would be great. the tiger logo should definetly be thier primary too, idn why they went just the old D. i also like the road bp hat

Mets, Jets, Islanders

Minnesota road script with the floating tail isn't working... and here's why:

The "Twins" script is at a straight angle (if that makes sense. It's flat, but angled up) and the floating tail thing is at that same angle.

The "Minnesota" script is vertically arched (or arced?), so the floating tail is arched. The goal is obviously to mimic the home on the road, but IMO the result is worse than they currently have.

If you're going to keep the stylized / arched Minnesota type, I'd strongly consider dropping the tail.

Sorry for the choppyness of this post... it's been a long day.

As a newcomer to this site, I have to just accept my work as inferior and soak this all in. I really enjoyed all of these...especailly the NL East ones (mainly because I just did an NL East, and would not put one of my concepts against urs anyday).

presentation is great. designs all look great.

I have two problems though. 1) you used the Boston numerals on the Yankees alternate...I found that very contradicting

2) I am not as educated in baseball atire as opposed to football and basketball, but I feel like some of the sock styles are very out there.

besides that, I think this series is amazing! great job!

I love this Twins set. It looks great. I think you may be able to add pinstripes back to the away, though. It would add in more Navy so the uniform would match the hat better. I like the new script a lot, and I think it works even when arched like that. The only problem I can spot is the M. Make it match the cap M logo better and you have a winner. I like the choice to use the Nuggets number font, it works well with the wordmark. Thats all I can think of, good stuff.

I tried a version with the lowercase M, but it didn't look right. The T in Twins doesn't match the TC logo either.

I have to redraw it...accidentally deleted a non-arched version. I will rework this with an angled script instead of an arched one so it matches the home version.

updated above with slanted wordmark. It does look better than the original arched version, although even this version is also slightly arched before it was skewed.

I also included a larger version of the new wordmark alone.

Onto the NL Central...

notes

returned to standard MLB block font (I think the current font is hard to read, especially with names)

created road script in similar font to REDS lettering

slightly modified logo for alternate jersey

added drop shadow on elements on alt jersey for increased legibility

placed Mr Red on home BP jersey

all in all, aside from the font, not much different from current game uniforms

Not seeing the update, even after refreshing. Are you sure it's up?

It's there. Maybe you need to empty your cache.

Odd... emptying cache in firefox didn't work, so I brought it up in ie8.

Pros: New script looks great. Nice work by you.

Cons: The tags in this site get all screwed up in ie8... even in "compatibility" mode.

returned to vest for home and road

brought back Clemente-era stirrups

added black alt

like the Reds, not much was really changed, because I like the clean look that Pittsburgh has (minus the red abominations)
