Berlin logo request

Berlin Stein

Stein is the German word for stone or the word for a big mug of beer.

I had an idea for a starting point. Take a stone sphere, make it resemble a baseball by adding stitch marks and then put a pickelhaube on top.

Skywalker76 · 09-27-2004, 02:26 PM

Thanks for your ideas I really like the stone image. Now I just need somebody who can work with these pictures.

Skywalker76 · 09-28-2004, 10:51 AM

Ok since this worked in another thread with English beer I'll try this with German beer.
Whoever makes me that Berlin Stein logo will get a six pack of beer when he ever comes to Germany.

Not real happy with it, but here is one.

Jeff Olsen · 09-28-2004, 02:29 PM

Here's a variation on my idea. I turned a baseball granite instead of making a granite baseball.

Wow. I like that a lot... but if you could get the stitches to stand out a wee bit more, it would be perfect, IMHO.

Of course, I'm not the one who requested it, either...

Jeff Olsen · 09-28-2004, 06:53 PM

I brightened the baseball and added a frame.

Hey the thing with beer worked

.

Thanks a lot guys and don't worry everybody who will spend his time for making me a logo will get the beer whenever he's in Germany

.

About the logos I really like your logo, Jeff. Maybe you could add/ change some little things:

1. The main colors of Berlin Stein are red & blue, so maybe you can work a little with that in the background or with the font, although the gold/ yellow font looks really sharp, so you might wanna keep this.

2. It would be great if you could get the stone/helmet more into the middle of the logo, so it won't be "overshadowed" by the the font.

3. I think with a nice background this will be a very very nice logo.

Thanks a lot guys I really appreciate your work for my logo. Btw the logo will be used in the online leage WLB (see my sig) for my team.

Another idea I had was having a player out of stone as the main logo. If you search google (picture mode) under baseball stone you get a sort of stonecarving that looks like a man with a beard swinging a baseball bat. If I knew how to attach it I'd show you what I mean.

I could do a red/blue/red gradient thing with the background but I can't do much with the baseball/helmet. It could be moved up a bit but then the helmet would be covered and it'll lose the stitching detail if I shrink it. Maybe if I moved it up to show more of the ball and less of the pike.

message deleted, since the logo I was recommending is the logo you are looking to replace. oops

Would be still great if you could get this red/blue/red thing. I'm really looking forward to seeing it.

For a while there, I forgot how to do this!

Le Grande Orange · 09-30-2004, 01:37 AM

LOL... for some reason I keep thinking Ben Stein. Win Ben Stein's baseball team!

Skywalker76 · 09-30-2004, 05:48 AM

Thanks a lot Jeff, I really like it the way it is now. Do I just download it now and save picture as ?
