vicfurth Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I was working on a concept and ran across this:It's for a Catholic school in Dallas. Looks pretty similar to something uploaded here:JJ, know anything about this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nash61 Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 It looks more like his original version (before he cleaned it up), but there is no doubt that's JJ's logo. Now to find out if they got it legally.

udubs03 Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 There are significant difference between the two and both bear a resemblance to the Atlanta Falcons logo...I don't see this as theft at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohryan Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Yeah, that looks closer to the Atlanta Falcons logo than it does to the other logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a3uge Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Hey guys, this high school definitely ripped off this picture I took at the zoo last week and used it as their logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nash61 Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 It's a crappy quality picture. Maybe these will help.

JayJaxon Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 It's still not the same logo. It's obvious that the Atlanta Falcons inspired both but they are totally different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakonius26 Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Both are rip-offs of the Atlanta Falcons' logo, so really I don't see how either one is more of a rip-off than the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aci Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I would like to point out that the title of this thread appears as "More logo theft by vicfurth" on the main page, comically enough.Also, the logo in question looks like a cross between the Atlanta Falcons logo and the AF logo. I would say that the AF logo was inspired by the ATL logo, but not a direct rip-off, but that the third logo definitely looks like the designer was aware of both existing logos while creating his own.

It's obvious that the designer has seen the AF falcon, and used it as inspiration (whether consciously or not) while also making it more Atlanta-ish. But it is not the same.

BlueSky Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Can I suggest that OPs use "possible" or "potential" as modifiers in their thread titles unless and until it's known to be theft? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrewharrington Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Can I also suggest that we just PM the person involved. Biggest reason is you never know who ripped off whom. This isn't something that needs to be brought out in public.

BrandMooreArt Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 it has the same profile and proportions. my guess is that its either total coincidence, or another person used JJ's as a template and traced over it. or the 3rd option, JJ made changes and sold it to them.

JJSCOTT Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 WOW! didn't know anything about this... I guess it looks similar to the one I did but I would say mine more inspired it that it was copied.
