It was part of them having to cover there bases legally. Remember v1.02 took away the real nicknames and added the ability to edit team names. This then took away a possible legal problem for them.

When the game initializes a new league it creates a set of logos based on teamname_nickname.png. Since the teams no longer have nicknames by default it will simply create atlanta.png. But once you go in and change the teams nickname from blank to the Braves it will simply rename the logo file for the league to atlanta_braves.png.

This is why the logo pack quit working. In the default logo directory it was called atlanta_braves.png but when the league initialized and the teams did not have nicknames it would skip the file. Once the league is initialized it will no longer look for whats in the default directory and will stick with the logos generated when the league was initialized and just update the file name to teamname_nickname.png.

The updated teams.dat has the nicknames included so now it works like it used to. Let me know it would have anymore questions on it.
