Dr Beinfest Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 I noticed someone took the liberty of updating the colors on the Florida Marlins wikipedia page also, really digging these mockups someone on the sportslogos board made of the uniform script: It just looks like something a 10 year old can do in photoshop in 5 minutes I'll give you a full day. Make it say Marlins. Go for it. I could do that in like.... 20 minutes. But I really, really like the edit to the colors on the ones quoted above. The other ones fail at looking Miami Vice, these ones succeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SongInTheAir Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 to even making the team have sucky players so you go to see the team you want to see. That is why I will not cheer for them anymore. Not because of a " logo ". Wait, what? Reading this sentence is what being hit in the head with a shovel must feel like. “Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?� Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poptart Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 so I just realized months and months ago I was praying for NO Hornets blue + orange. just realized what we've ended up with is essentially that + a hit of yellow. maybe that's why I'm so pleased...

... Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 Think this logo is bad? Scroll down a screen in this piece: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/861065-toronto-blue-jays-new-logo-the-most-ridiculous-logo-in-each-al-teams-history for 14 that make it look good. And I remember that Twinkies logo. They used it, or something very close to it for many, many years. Nobody cared. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnellders Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 I'm not particularly keen on the "M" logo itself, but I must admit I could be swayed having seen "MIAMI" displayed in that style above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

... Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 Obsolete? Obsolescence can only result from the passage of time. What I was talking about was logos and graphics that were bad from day one. One can argue that the new Marlin's logo is bad, but one cannot argue that it's obsolete unless one wants to be laughed at.

mystikol87 Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 So, we have people who think it's too commercial; people who think it's too commercial and is all about attracting tourists ^ ^ ^ ; and people who think it is too "Miami." Interesting mix lol I don't think the word "commercial" is right for my camp. Perhaps it's splitting hairs, but the emphasis is placed more on "corporate" because that type of logo typically seems to be austere and abstract in its aesthetic design. All logos, even baseball ones, are meant to be "commercial" so I don't think that's the complaint some of us have. However, even as a "corporate" logo, it still looks like a mound of sh*t. Yeah, I think I intended to use the word "corporate" instead of "commercial." My bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiamiSpartan Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 hmmm....not hating it as much as I did originally....I'm going to reserve final judgement until 11/11/11 when I see how it looks with the entire uniform..... I actually don't mind the stylized Marlin as much as the letter "M"...just thought they might come up with something a little better for the caps....

Keep in mind he hated the teal too. Me? Hardly. I simply wanted something more traditional and simple. Plenty of teal hats and jerseys in my collection that I would have continued wearing no matter what. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only trouble I would have would be the 'S', in which case I would need to find the font that matches this! Let us not forget, I did make Josh Willingham's name in the style of the Marlins lettering! (I hid the 'g' behind Willingham because I didn't want to put the effort in).
