Cola Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 There is one place where this concept is lacking: the spacing and smoothness in the basketball logo. Especially noticeable in the lower section of the ball, the curve isn't a smooth transition into the flame and it looks awkward. Also, the spacing in the threads of the ball just looks off and pieced together.If you can fix those issues, I think you have a solid concept going on here.

raysox Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 I like it. On the top part, where the flame goes in, make the black outline indent with the flame. @MichaelDanger19Â | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lights Out Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Connect the flame to the T and it's perfect. Well done. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mings Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 It is still way too static. There is no motion, no movement....it isn't dynamic at all. What you are doing now are sideways moves from an existing logo. With the original logo with the gradients, there was a movement to it. It clearly felt that the ball was on fire going through the hoop, like Glen Rice just dropped a trey on those mofo Magic bitches. You need that kind of dynamic in the logo, and right now in both versions it is lacking.It may sound like I'm being an , but I'm not. We know your work and what you can do.

Bmac Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 The update is great. The one thing I would change is where the flame comes out of the ball. The farthest left red section should curve lower than it does, creating a smoother transition. I hope that makes sense. https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

worcat Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 what i like about the old logo opposed to yours is that the yellow flames made an "M" at the top... where as yours, the red makes an "M" but takes away from the ball. It just doesnt look right. The old logo is much more fluent Bleeding Blue since 1986 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pdw Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 to me the third panel of the ball on the top looks more like the ball ripped open than a flame..If its supposed to look like the ball ripped open and yellow flames are coming from the inside, then you did great. But the middle two panels on the ball don't look like they're on fire to me. The far right panel does...Maybe if you could throw a flame "hook" somewhere in the middle it may work .. ?

ESTONES6 Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 The ball logo just seems weird to me. The yellow part seems like an after thought to me. Is there anyway to incorporate the palm tree, possibly?I think the scripts/wordmarks are a big improvement, especially the flame on the T. The script seems a lot cleaner and is easier to read.

JSS Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 This is getting really close. I'm beginning to really like it; I'm also a fan of your secondary logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funkatron101 Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 The secondary logo and wordmarks are great. Not feeling the primary though. It doesn't seem like and improvement over the original. I liked the first one much better. It was different. The only issue I saw with it was incorporating the colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milo Meningocele Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 I like the update, but the Alt. reminds me of the Raptors Claw logo. Thats probably just me though. Good work.No, it's the first thing I thought of, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
