I've just begun preparing a massive quick-start for 1986 and have noticed that despite the great work by so many OOTPers (like you in this thread) that seems to be an era that is lacking in the way of add-on logos and uniforms. They may exist and I haven't located them, but I don't see period-accurate logos for clubs like the Memphis Chicks, Batavia Trojans, Appleton Foxes and many others.

Some of the franchises from the 1980s still exist with the same name, but usually the logo has been modernized (typically more than once) and I'd rather have the historically accurate version for this historical quick-star, especially because I intend for the lineups all the way down to the low minors to have their actual original players, not fictional fillers.

Thanks for any advice you can offer on doing this right!
i did the best i can to discuss how i did these in my old thread here. I use GIMP and grab my icons mostly from wikipedia or chris creamer's logo site.

This thread is also a great reference for logos too.
