New Logos....take a look...

**trip** · 03-03-2010, 07:10 AM

Below are the new logos that I've designed. I decided to change the ring background color for the US logos to green and make the lettering a different font. Due to this change on the US logos, I decided to slightly change the Australian and Canadian logs as well to make them conform to the same format.

Also, with the exception of the Australian logo, I decided not to include the region mascot name in the logo. This was due to too much lettering being involved. The Australian logo didn't look good with just "Australia", so I included their mascot name.

I realize that there will be those that will like them and hate them....I tried several color and format variations and came up with what you see.....I had to take everything into consideration for the logo, patches, stickers, etc.....so, keep in mind that unless there is some compelling reason to change the logos....this is pretty well the way they will be. I'm just giving everyone a sneek peek.......

BTW, anything that has already been printed with the old logos can be considered a unique, keep-sake.

I don't feel that extra money has to be spent to change over to these logos. Just let them find their way into everything gradually.

Thanks,
Trip

Looks fine to me.

oldbikers · 03-03-2010, 07:51 AM

Are you making something special for the South Central Region since we don't have one of the new ones?

Just kidding Trip I know there were 2 South Western listed by mistake

They are OK but I think you should leave the text off of the bottom just my 2 cents worth

Just curious, but shouldn't "Northeastern" "Northwestern" "Southeastern" and "Southwestern" be written as one word?

Yeah, how come your native state's region gets left out, hm?

Looks good, Trip, but I agree with oldbikers about the bottom lettering.

**Top Cat** · 03-03-2010, 09:19 AM

I know this is not a poll but after all the input on the poll you still put the region names at the bottom, upside down. ???
I don't like the green either.
As I said ealier, I appreciate all the work and time you put into this forum and I love it here. Just wanted my opinion noted

Hey Trip, I like these better. Only change I would like would be just having the region on top and not on the bottom.

**Cajunrider** · 03-03-2010, 10:09 AM

They look good Trip. I agree with not having the region name on the bottom.

caper · 03-03-2010, 10:18 AM

They look ok to me ,but agree with the no text on the bottom idea:) Maybe another filler would be fine , Flag,etc JMO Good work though and eithor way I will be getting a logo and wearing it this summer I hope:)

dantama · 03-03-2010, 10:52 AM

+1 on taking the lettering off the bottom. And perhaps an easier to read font.

And aren't we the Southwest group, not the Southwestern?

clayton · 03-03-2010, 11:08 AM

+1 on the bottom lettering...replace with something not upside down.
+1 on the green...maybe a darker green since there is red lettering.
It is almost a Neon look currently :)

**Jared** · 03-03-2010, 11:09 AM

Works for me.

It actually is one word....I like to capitalize the second word for emphasis. President's perogative, I guess.

Fair enough, and I wouldn't have said anything had you written it that way, one word with two capital letters : NorthEastern, but the little green gaps in the lettering sure make it look like they are two words!
