waltere Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Hmmmm. Very on the fence about this, seems like a lateral move though. Rather than fullay updating the logo and making it truly timeless seems too much like something which could become dated quickly. It doesn't strike me as terrible, just very meh.Although, it could have been a hell of a lot worse, at least it seems like we are just getting a Lions'-esque update to our identity rather than a full on rebrand, which is a good thing 1 hour ago, BringBackTheVet said: sorry sweetie, but I don't suck minor-league d CCSLC Post of the day September 3rd 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funky Bunky Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Pretty nice.I didn't realize how dated the old logo was until seeing the new one today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFB Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 You can't accurately judge the logo based on a transposing where you don't know how warped the features really are... it could be minimal difference or parts could be significantly edited to fit the contour of the gloves.... Now, with that being said, anyone know why his tongue undercuts his lower teeth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMU Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Here's all 32 gloves:Looks like the Panthers is the only "leak." Not sure if the other 31 aren't changing anything or if the redesigns there are too obvious not to catch when making these.And, for the record, I have no qualms about the new panther. It definitely looks quite badass. Now, the only thing I'm curious about is why Nike makes these with the hand gesture when I remember a college game a year or so ago when a player got flagged for showing off the design.

oldschoolvikings Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 After staring at it for 5 minutes, I STILL HATE the neck. It looks dumb, but I got over it. Then I kept focusing on the Chin. Why? Wtf were the thinking with that line? Oh well, it is an upgrade, but shouldve been better.Also, Unwind, if this is the logo upgrade that impressed you so much, shame.You realize we've yet to see the true vectored version of this logo yet? So far, this is just a board members best guess, based on the glove. Â http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrazyAnna Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Realized, but the unless the true vectored version gets rid of the blue goatee, I cant get on board.So you consider the original to be better? The Panthers and Jaguars both needed a modern update though. I consider the Panthers update to be the same as what the Lions did. I think it is a great improvement and looks a lot more fluid and smoother. The Pike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KentuckyPhins Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I'm actually surprised. I expected major changes. This is just a solid update on their old logo and I actually like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably just got my hopes up when Unwind said he loved a certain logo update so much. Its decent, but I just cant get over that blue goatee, that goes into it's mouth... Also as a Jaguars fan, I think our logo is perfect, don't want a change there, just to everything else...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhlyBoy Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 A quick trace in Illustrator, trying my best to eliminate the curves of the hands and fingers, yields this:There are definitely parts of this I really like and parts I really don't. I'm gonna tweak the bits I'm sour on and see how it could have looked.Honest to god, the very first thing that came to my mind was that cave from Aladdin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quantum Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I find the lower jaw on the new logo distracting. It's like kitty got an injection.
