Team/League logo request

OldeTowneTeam · 12-23-2008, 09:59 AM

Could someone please take a shot at turning the logo below into one of those circular thingys with the team name (Atlanta Firebirds) enscribed within the outer rings?

I'm also looking for a league logo for the Great American Baseball League.

Many thanks for any time you can afford to spend on these requests.

Here's a glossy logo and a non-glossy logo. OOTP should resize the larger logo. If not I'll resize if needed. The glossy logo is my design so constructive feedback is appreciated.

very nice work!

These are beautiful, micropterus, thanks a lot!

This was so nice, and so popular with others in my league, that I'd like to ask if anyone could take a shot at making a set for the entire league in the same style. Team names are:

Arizona War Hammers
Atlanta Firebirds
Chicago Cannons
Colorado Hit-Men
Los Angeles Tremors
Milwaukee Beer Chuggers
Pittsburgh Crawfords
San Diego Rhinos
San Francisco Bay Bombers
St Louis Blue Birds
Washington Express

The league name is the Great American Baseball League -- would love to see ideas for a league logo as well.

Thanks.

Which style? Glossy or non-glossy?

OldeTowneTeam · 05-02-2009, 06:20 PM

Non-glossy, please!

davwms · 05-02-2009, 06:49 PM

Did you still need the league logo? :-)

OldeTowneTeam · 05-02-2009, 08:25 PM

Hey, thanks a lot!

micropterus58 · 05-03-2009, 04:10 PM

Arizona War Hammers, two choices.

Chicago Cannons

micropterus58 · 05-03-2009, 04:11 PM

Colorado Hitmen

micropterus58 · 05-03-2009, 04:12 PM

Pittsburgh Crawfords. I used the Negro League team logo. Let me know if you wanted another direction.

micropterus58 · 05-03-2009, 04:13 PM

San Francisco Bay Bombers

micropterus58 · 05-03-2009, 04:14 PM

St. Louis Blue Birds.
More coming tomorrow.

These are looking really good. I would offer a small suggestion of making the logos at a 150 x 150 size. I know the game will resize them as needed, but when it does, the logo will lose some of it's quality. Also, they can lose some of the detail that you put in and sometimes you may not even be able to tell what it is within the game.

I believe that the largest size that OOTP9 shows the logos is 115x115 ? but OOTPX may be showing them closer to the 150x150 size...

Regardless of any of this, though.. your logos are looking really great..

micropterus58 · 05-04-2009, 04:33 PM

davwms, I agree there are resolution issues. You can start with a larger size and use larger logos and let the game resize as needed. I'm already using a 14 point font. Or you can start small and have to resize your logos and use 6 or 8 point fonts which look terrible. Either way there's going to be resizing. For this template (300x300) I prefer to have clear text because the text is a major part of the logo. For a logo in the Rocknfire7 style I use a 150x150 template, which will not have much resizing, because the logo is the major part. I haven't done any experimenting to see if one method produces better results. I've had good results on my PC running OOTP at 1280x1024.

Olde Towne Team, if you need any logos resized let me know.

micropterus58 · 05-04-2009, 04:35 PM

Los Angeles Tremors. Couldn't find any logos so I made something inspired by the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes.

micropterus58 · 05-04-2009, 04:36 PM

Milwaukee Beer Chuggers. Used the Brewers logos for colors.

micropterus58 · 05-04-2009, 04:37 PM

San Diego Rhinos
