BrandMooreArt Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 not bad, its a good transition from an outdated illustration to a modern look. typical "hero shot above wordmark" kind of thing, but i like it. the typography is an issue though. the typeface for "privateers" is just all over the place and the letters are crashing into each other. it looks like a free font from dafont.com. then, i have to ask why there are 3 different typefaces being used? they definitely should have gone with the same serif font used on UNO to spell out the university name. other than that, it seems well drawn and crafted. the designer(s) just need a couple of typography lessons GRAPHIC ARTIST BEHANCE / MEDIUM / DRIBBBLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowld Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 awesome! I think they did a great job. HUGE upgrade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfwabel Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Odd for a school making the downgrade to Division III would even spend the money on a new design. I didn't remember the old long, just this even older one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mightynine Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 I like the upgraded pirate, but the new wordmarks aren't doing much for me.But yeah, add me to the "why bother with D-III right around the corner" category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cubbies06 Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 Nice upgrade for my alma mater. The new privateer is obviously pissed at missing out on Division 1 athletics... "We root for the laundry"(Jerome Seinfeld) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJTALBOT Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 I like the pirate, but the wordmarks look like they were hand drawn by someone with Parkinson's. Everyone loves a roundel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDixonDesign Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 This is the first thing that came to mind, the logo of a Camping Resort my family stays in Myrtle Beach:As for the logo, it's a great start, but they left so much to be desired...

moosebean11 Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 Hold the phone, this looks eerily similar to my previous high school's new logo (circa 2007)and by eerily similar i mean exactly the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
footballfiji Posted October 7, 2010 Author Share Posted October 7, 2010 Interesting:The new logo was created by New Orleans Hornets senior graphic designer Eddie Coe. The process of developing a new logo began in 2009 and is the culmination of a partnership between the University and the Hornets' franchise. Plainsman Parking Lot.

RuffDawg Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 everything is crisip but the UNO on the hat. why in the world is that so messy?Putting that on the hat seems a little Wild to me. They probably could have Skipped it. There comes a point when you don't stand for the constant heartbreak anymore, and walk away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bohob Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 It looks like a sword in the N on the hat. Sometimes good design is knowing when to stop. The type looks pretty slapped together too.

RedEye Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 There should be some concern or at least an explanation as to why the HS logo is exactly the same as this 'new' logo... designed by a pro from an NBA team?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seadragon76 Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Off topic: Will the Sun Belt Conference replace New Orleans?Probably not. The Sun Belt is pretty happy where they are with 12 teams overall (10 football with South Alabama coming in the future) despite the overtures from the WAC about Denver. If the Sun Belt makes any moves, it'll be to boot Denver and UALR because of the Sun Belt's new found focus on football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
