Number 8 Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 I was very dissatisfied with the jerseys they currently have and believe they need to go in a new direction My concept blog http://hockeyconcepts.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djsamurai37 Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 I don't like the vertical continuous script. The mushed-togetherness of it is a little... *shrug* I will say this though - if you replace that with the current USA script (horizontal arched, not diagonal) but kept everything else in your design, I'd buy it. Do you have Marv Albert in a can? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gueman Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Not in that direction either! You are using a logo or 2 that are banned under current regulations. The design is sloppy, lacks shoulder numbers, and the USA lettering looks oddly Cyrillic. The current unis do lack a little "flair", but we are the USA, we really don't need to be flashy.

Edubdesign Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 The logo is kinda strange, the vertical text dead centre in the middle of the jersey looks like a necktie. Not good.Lovin' the shoulder patches, even though one of them appears to be the logo from my version of the USA jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But really is it that much of a creative stretch to add to gold stars to the eagle logo? Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys. P. J.

Edubdesign Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Update #1:Well, you didn't have to take my logo off the shoulder, I wasn't objecting to it being used, because it's not 100% original in the first place. All I did was resize it and redesign it slightly. To be honest, it looks very good with the stripes on the shoulders.And, it looks much better with the normal "USA" on the front.

I think the only thing that would make it look better would be to re-add the eagle logo you had on the shoulders, possibly add a smidgen of red piping on the white neck (quite possibly in the center with white on both sides), and maybe adding some more stripes in the empty white spaces on the arms. Otherwise, this is one of the better concepts you've got going. Keep working. NYCFC - MLS CUP CHAMPIONS - 2021 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gueman Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 It is still very sloppy. Take your time learn the program. Nothing ruins a good concept like a sloppy presentation.

Nothing ruins a good concept like a sloppy presentation.Im not sure what you mean by sloppy, can you give me an example?Name plate is blurry and very hard to read. USA looks unbalanced and very sloppy, dots everywhere around the numbers, shoulder logos and collar. It's a great concept, but very sloppy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aci Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 If you are using Paint, a good way of checking to make sure you don't have any slightly off-colour pieces is to use the fill tool on a section with a very odd colour (like lime green). This will highlight anything that was similar to the original colour that you'll need to fix. Then, once it's all one colour, use the fill tool again to make it back to the colour you originally had it.Secondly, ALWAYS save Paint projeects in PNG. It's like bitmap, except you can upload to tinypic with it without it losing any quality whatsoever.
