crazyboy335 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I was fooling around in GIMP when I saw a really old LA Lakers logo on the site.First, I removed all the white and seperated the basketball from the text.Then, I opened the circle tool up and filled in all the transparencies.I flipped it around with the flip tool, placed it under the text and shaded everything in classic colors.I don't know if this would be another count of plagarism or if it is just a simple edit, but I tried my best and I made this.Old:New:It is a PNG, so it retains transparency. C & C is accepted. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobster Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I found this on an old Lakers program and posted it in the Lakers section -It was later haphazardly recolored in 1967 when the team switched from royal blue & columbia blue to purple & gold.

crazyboy335 Posted February 17, 2014 Author Share Posted February 17, 2014 Interesting to see. It's weird how a seemingly normal color scheme on something like that has turned into a strangely colored.. thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyboy335 Posted February 17, 2014 Author Share Posted February 17, 2014 UPDATE: Kicked off the black outline around the basketball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dayne Amaze Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I actually like this way better than what they use now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eliasrappaport Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Not a fan of disconnecting lines. Looks like the Sixers' logo problems multiplied by 100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ujju2 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Yeah, the lines need to connect. Looks good, though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quillz Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I really think the Lakers just need a new primary logo entirely. And I say that as a Lakers fan. I feel that if the franchise wasn't as storied as they were, it probably would have been updated/replaced a long time ago.That said, your concept is nice, though it looks a lot like the current primary. Although that's not a bad thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
