Lights Out Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 I think a gold/purple/white/purple/gold stripe to match the numbers would have looked nice. (Obviously the gold part would be super thin.) POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardsfan124 Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 i believe thats the old font on the wall in the background, and the new font in the endzone the L looks different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After he took over ownership, Pegula had promised to get rid of all of them by the start of next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifty8_Black O Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Maybe this belongs in its own thread but I just saw on twitter where CNBCs Darren Rovell said "Reebok & the NFL will struggle to sell jerseys this year. I'm confident Nike wants to radically change at least 25% of league." Any idea on this at all? I talked to a friend who works for the marketing department of the Panthers and he said "they're looking into tweaking the logo to make it more '3-dimensional'" so I am hoping someone could expound on this. Thanks and sorry if this belongs elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrandMooreArt Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 any change to Carolina would be welcomed. their word mark is a joke. get Bosack or Verlander on that ASAPand my guess to any "make it 3D looking" change would be more like bevels and shading. not actual taking the Ai 3D tool to it GRAPHIC ARTIST BEHANCE / MEDIUM / DRIBBBLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARTnSocal Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 While I agree about the Carolina Panthers logo needing a tweaking or change, I can't agree about the paintbrush word-mark of theirs. I've always liked it.With Nike coming in, I hope that teams don't undergo a uniform & logo change just for the sake of change.I'd love to see the Raiders go back to the silver numbers with the black outline on their away whites, and I'd love to see New Orleans change to the gold numbers on their away whites, and ditch the black pants. I truly like those Vegas gold pants they wear, and can't stand them in the black non-stripe pants.I think that AZ needs to do something about their away jersey, Seattle (dump the monochrome), Jax, Tenn all need changes made.

BrianVlietDesign Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Agreed. The Ravens started off with a great set in 1996 and it has progressively deteriorated from there.For once, I'm going to kinda agree with Lights Out on a design. I think this was the best jersey the Ravens ever wore. (Proud owner of a purple Testaverde.) Baltimore has always seemed to me like a team that, from a design standpoint, can't get anything right without buggering something else up. Their best jersey only lasted a year, their best helmet logo never actually got used, their best sleeve logo got mothballed, and great black pants got swapped out for leotards.For me, the best the Ravens ever looked from head to toe was their second season:I couldn't agree more. To be brutally honest about my own team, I'm tired of the Bird and B emblem. It never really sat well for me when they unveiled it as a primary and it still hasn't grown on me to this day. For a secondary emblem, sure, I think it looks great. But, I've always been a big enthisiast of the shield logo from '96. I'll still wear merch with that logo to Ravens games. As for uniforms, the '96 kits were the best they've ever had. The numbers, wordmark, and colors were extremely fitting for the team. It seems to me that the purple they use now is slightly different than the old purple used. I believe the original '96 purple was a darker shade. I was also a really big fan of both the full-body raven on the sleeves, as well as the black pants with the single white bar. I've never liked them with the white pants. When they finally brought back the black pants, I was overwhelmingly excited to see them revert to something older, though they didn't have the bar.As of right now, the numbers I think are fine. But, I still love the originals from the '96 a tad more. One thing I do think they've done right and should stick with is the shield logo on the sleeves. It reminds me of the '96 logo, but takes a life of it's own. I'm just hoping that one day they'll release a new primary logo. I can live with it, but I wouldn't mind something new. As long as it isn't crap. The worse a team could do is go from moderate to worse. NYCFC - MLS CUP CHAMPIONS - 2021 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to ask a friend of mine about this. Sounds interesting. JohnnySeoul's WikipageIF ONE IS CONSIDERED RACIST, THEN BOTH MUST BE CONSIDERED RACIST.BOTTOM LINE: NEITHER ONE IS RACIST.

JohnnySeoul Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 The Panthers wordmark reminds me of the Friends intertitle.Right era. Kinda reminds me of how the Toronto Raptors magically came up with their "original" name during the Jurassic Park movie era.

It was obvious that the Raptors got their name from the movie. Nothing magic about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawk36 Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Close-up of the new end-zonesSo after being criticized on the board for jumping all over the Spring mock up of the field, I'll reiterate my statement after now seeing the actual end zone. Can't believe right off the bat they can't even follow their own design standards and have the coloring/outlines on the end zone typeface match that of their uniforms. Really bad.
