Shub: fictional logo request

gordyhulten · 06-17-2003, 03:09 PM

Shub, I'm a huge fan of your fictional logos and the more traditional look of logos in general. I've got a request if you've got some free time.

I just took over the Red Willow Roadrunners in the Dog Days Baseball League, and I'd really like a new logo. I've attached the current logo below.

What I'd like to do is have the logo reflect the Roadrunner's long tradition of excellent fielding and defense, while somehow incorporating the letters "RW." I'd like to keep the team colors red/black or red/black/yellow. The league rules state that two different size logos are needed: 135 pixels width x 122 pixels height AND 52 pixels width x 47 pixels height.

Anything you could do would be greatly appreciated.

Shub · 06-17-2003, 04:37 PM

No problem. One question though, do you like the roadrunner that's on the current logo? I could just reuse him, if not I have a couple other roadrunners I could use, but they aren't as cartoonish.

gordyhulten · 06-17-2003, 04:40 PM

I don't know if I even want a Roadrunner in the logo, but I'm not opposed to it either. I kind of think that the one above is just -slightly- cartoonish, but being aesthetically challenged, I really don't know what I'm looking for until it hits me in the side of the head.

Thanks for working on this, though. I can't wait to see what you come up with.

gordyhulten · 06-18-2003, 02:53 PM

Bump...

Sorry, Shub, if it seems I'm being impatient. I just didn't want this to drop off the front page...

gordyhulten · 06-20-2003, 01:06 PM

Shub, any luck?

Sorry to be such a pain... :-)

Shub · 06-20-2003, 05:07 PM

I'm having a hard time not using a roadrunner. I just don't think you can have a team name like that and not use it

Here's one I had done but forgot to post it. I have one more, I think it's on my machine at home though. I'll get it up as soon as I find it.

gordyhulten · 06-20-2003, 05:08 PM

Dude, that is slick. Any way to make Roadrunners one word?

I can't wait to see the other one!

Thanks,
Gordy

Shub · 06-20-2003, 05:20 PM

here's one word, sorry- I didn't really notice that I had made it 2

gordyhulten · 06-20-2003, 05:21 PM

That is so amazing! It's not cartoony at all, but everytime I look at it, I get this image of Wile E. Coyote plummetting off a cliff...

:-)

Shub · 06-20-2003, 05:31 PM

well if you like that one, you'll hate the other one. It's basically a mitt with RW on it, I don't like it. It didn't look very good after I had to size it down either. I think you should go with this one, but then again, I made the thing, so I'm partial.

gordyhulten · 06-20-2003, 05:33 PM

OK, do you know what the one you've got posted is?

How can I resize it so that I have one that's 135 pixels width x 122 pixels height and one that's 52 pixels width x 47 pixels height?

Shub · 06-20-2003, 05:53 PM

here's a link, download this zip file, both sizes are in there, I included JPEG and BMP formats

www.shub.net/rwlogos.zip

gordyhulten · 06-20-2003, 05:55 PM

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

gordyhulten · 06-20-2003, 06:15 PM

Shub,

Sorry to be a pain, but the logos in the zip file have Roadrunners as two words. Any way you would be willing to change it?

Please? :-)

Shub · 06-20-2003, 07:56 PM

sorry, I must have put the wrong ones in there. I'll fix it for you.

Eugene Church · 06-20-2003, 08:49 PM

Shub...you are gifted...you never seem to run out of good logos.

Be sure to save the Roadrunners design.

I will need it for the Richmond Roadrunners.

All you will have to do is add "RICHMOND".

Use the same colors...they're really good.

gordyhulten · 06-22-2003, 06:36 PM

Shub, any way I can gently bug to post the corrected logos?

Thanks,
Gordy

Shub · 06-23-2003, 12:19 AM

I'm sorry, they were on my computer at work, but I will give you the correct ones first thing Monday morning.

gordyhulten · 06-23-2003, 01:02 AM

OK, no worries. I feel like I've just been a royal pain in the rear about this...

Shub · 06-23-2003, 08:41 AM

You're not a pain, it was my bad. Anyways, follow the same link-

I just replaced the old with the new.
