SDFanBoy619 Posted December 9, 2010 Author Share Posted December 9, 2010 This logo needs to be added to the site, as it is an official secondary logo for the Falcons.E-mail it to me. eriebeachboy@aol.com - I'll put it up. Vector if you have it, Illustrator CS2 ideally.I have a vector in .svg on Inkscape if that would help.Did you create the logo? I would prefer the file in a more standard vecto rformat like AI, EPS or PDF. I am not sure I can even open a SVG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmackman Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 How about the old Miami Dolphins script? They have a grainy one-color version in the database now, but in reality it was aqua on white, with an orange shadow. You can see it in the end zone in this clip (at about 2:30).http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eA5iUr8rCaA "Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be eaten. Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve. It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle. When the sun comes up, you'd better be running." - Unknown | Check out my articles on jerseys at Bacon Sports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is just an open source vector format. As a side not, although that logo was used on some merchandise, it was never included in any official styleguides. The same thing goes for this patriots logo.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Is that a Z-Line logo or something? I vaguely remember them making city monogram logos out of team wordmarks.

AsM29 Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 I think both of these are Reebok creations, but that is purely speculation on my part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Actually, I'm pretty sure that the Patriots' logo was created by Nike, right before Reebok got their exclusive deal. Nike made alternate logos for all teams. This was the Packers' version:When Reebok took over, they kept using the Nike-designed logos on merchandise for at least a couple years.

AsM29 Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 you may be right about that, but the first time i ever remember seeing it was on a hat that Tom Brady was wearing during an interview after their Super Bowl loss to the Giants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmac Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Isn't that when the Vikings got the V logo? It was used on hats and stuff, but not much else. https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"This is a design by one of the board's members. It never was and never will be an official logo of the Cardinals, nor was it under consideration. It went viral a long time ago and we apologize for this."Yeah, that's one of the things that has crossed my mind in the last 2 weeks since I took on the task of revamping the NFL section. Including "unused" and "proposed" logos is neat and all, but there is really no precedent as to what should be included. I mean, technically any random fan could have come up with a design, and if an NFL team never used it? It is technically "unused". But where do I draw the line, you know? I have seen logos that looked pretty amateurish and never had a chance of being adopted, but because it came from someone who "worked for a Nike design team" it automatically carries more weight than an equally bad design that some fan cranked out at home? It's a slippery slope, but hopefully my good judgement will prevail when those decisions have to be made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Admiral Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 I think unused/proposed logos that were introduced or leaked at some point would be in play. For example, the 49ers and Dolphins both unveiled new helmet designs which ultimately went unused. The Patriots' proposed logo that you graciously shared was shot down during a game, so it's officially part of the team's visual history. It shouldn't be that hard to draw the line between concepts that were "in the system" and concepts that weren't. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
