KCScout76 Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 OCHL - Orchard City Hockey League is using one of our Fantasy Lacrosse League Logo(United Lacrosse League from this board)The logo, "Firestorm" was used a few years back for the "Dallas Firestorm" of the ULL, a fantasy league I belong to.I think "Nitroseed" designed it. Once again, our Graphic Warriors provide the "best" for others to use.Where's our lawyer?See the site below.Jr Hockey League Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfoster Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 It's not even juniors... it's rec league... and half the logos are swiped. Heck the Vikings didn't even bother removing the stockphoto watermark... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why don't then a**holes do contests or whatever for logos. People like me that don't have design degrees or work for anything even close the graphics field but still love to do the work for fun and would just be happy to say "Hey, look, I designed that and they are using it"? It's always about the lazy, frankly, illegal, way out. It's aggravating. And the Vikings stealing an iStockphoto.com piece and not even having the sense or decency to at least attempt to vectorize it themselves is just straight up bulls*it.

DelayedPenalty Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I went down the list of teams. Anything with a ? is something that looks too good to be rec league, so assumed stolen unless proven otherwise. Sad that teams that have no/low budget assume that theft of an existing logo is the only way.D1Grizzlies - Stolen (Utah Grizzlies)Kokanee - NotPhantoms - Stolen (Philly/Adirondack Phantoms)Rattlesnakes - NotWhiskeyjacks - Modified AZ Cardinals logo mixed with something else...D2Bandits - Stolen (Las Vegas Wranglers)Dragons - ?Jets - Stolen (Winnipeg Jets)Red Bulls - Stolen (Red Bull energy drink)Rovers - NotVikings - Stolen (iStockphoto)Woodsmen - NotD3Firestorm - Stolen (CCSLer)Shamrocks - NotTitans - ?Skyhawks - Not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I wasn't sure about the Titans either, its a damn fine looking hockey logo, just not theirs, i would bet my life on it. I have just never seen it before. If it IS theirs, they need to have a seminar for the rest of that league on what they did and how everyone else can do the same. If I'm not mistaken, DP, Kokanee looks like they are using the Colorado Rockies mountain in the background. I know I have seen that mountain somewhere before.UniJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wave looks somewhat familiar though, just not sure where from.Red Bulls is definitely the drink logo. I didn't notice it over in the sidebar.

nitroseed Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Yep, that's mine. Forgot I'd even done that logo! That was like... years ago.Anyway, I sent them an email with a C&D request. We'll see if they do anything about it. If not, I'll just get my lawyer to give them a call. No skin off my nose.Thanks for the heads up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KCScout76 Posted March 31, 2011 Author Share Posted March 31, 2011 Heck the Vikings didn't even bother removing the stockphoto watermarkI didn't look too deep into what league it was, but it looked like like a Jr. League.I did notice the Vikings logo and laughed. The Shamrock logo is from a T-shirt website, Cafe Press.I like the "firestorm" logo, it's really nice. With any logo you will find some inperfections. Don't get too picky.

14er Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 I really like the appearance of the Firestorm logo, but isn't using a fireman to depict a firestorm somewhat of an oxymoron??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be nice though having them come to all your games and get free Red Bull. I for one would not complain lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
