Cuss - San Antonio Tejanos

Cuss · 01-29-2005, 02:44 PM

The entire logo package for my week 2 entry.

jnshmoo · 01-29-2005, 03:31 PM

Congrats. Again.

More good, very sharp stuff. You seem to have a good grasp of what to me seems like the current trend from recent years with bold colors & outlines (e.g., how the new Arizona cardinal has a much thicker black border) and cartoonish graphics in the sense they are relatively simple in design and form as opposed to trying to be realistic-looking. Hope I conveyed that correctly because it was supposed to be complimentary, even though I haven't voted for your entries yet

. Your style and execution are outstanding.

Continually spectacular, Cuss. Great work as always.

Nice work as always. The logo looks better to me at full size than it did reduced to OOTP's 150x150 size (I run into that problem a lot).

Anyway, a couple of small suggestions, if you don't mind.

The star in "Tejanos" appears to have been rotated and then put on top of the text. It hasn't had the same perspective applied to it that the "Tejanos" text has had, so to me it looks somewhat odd. The star looks pasted on rather than being an integral element of the type.

The same problem exists with the "San Antonio." It's been rotated to the appropriate angle, but it has had no perspective applied to it like the "Tejanos" has. Again, it makes it look a bit odd to me.

I'm wondering what the logo would look like if these two elements were given the same perspective treatment as the "Tejanos" text.

That's about it. I find the overall colour contrast to be on the dark side, so maybe the red and blue in the flag being a bit more bright and vibrant would give the overall logo more contrast. But as always, that could be just me since my monitor is set fairly dark.

Congrats again on taking the gold medal.

I am always looking for suggestions LGO. Thanks.

Where can I get just the big logo with the white background?

knuckler · 04-25-2006, 01:52 AM

I don't think Cuss would mind it being re-sized -

Mike Lowe · 04-25-2006, 11:20 AM

Do you have that Tejanos logo with a pure white background (or transparent...whatever is standard)?

Thanks for doing that, knuckler.

No, it's not my logo. If you try to resize this in a pixelated program like photoshop and put it on a true black background to create the transparency, the logo is going to have jagged edges(in the game). Your best bet is to pm Cuss or someone else that has illustrator or a similar program and ask them to put it on a true black background.

Faroo6 · 05-07-2006, 02:15 AM

heres a white bckgrnd

Faroo6 · 05-07-2006, 02:17 AM

heres one with a black to try

knuckler · 05-07-2006, 12:18 PM

When you try that in the game there is a blackish film around the logo. It's basically the same thing that happened when I tried it, only mine was more jagged edges. The best bet is still to pm Cuss and ask him to re-size his logo to 150 x 150 since he has it in a non-pixelated format.

Faroo6 · 05-07-2006, 01:57 PM

Ok I faked it.

knuckler · 05-07-2006, 04:39 PM

That's essentially the same as the white that both of us posted above. It just has a grey background in the game now.

I know but I tried to make it as close to possible to the grey that the logo sits on so it would appear transparent.

Cuss · 05-07-2006, 06:27 PM

I hope this is ok. There is still a little bit of that black around the logo, however that's probably as good as it's going to get until the new version of OOTP when it accepts PNG images instead.

Have fun!
