Custom fictional logos, my WBL
guys I have uploaded some fictional (some real) logos to padresfan site, its called WBL Logos. The name is from my league which I am starting in 1890 with 12 US teams with historical players but plan to expand to 32-36 teams including international teams (of course this is once I get a working version, for now I am stuck to the free OOTP 8). There are currently 49 logos that I have created/edited. Some are current team logos with some photoshop tweaking to make them look better in the game, others are from other sports (NHL, minor leagues, NFL Europe), and some are completely custom.
Please let me know what you think, suggestions, criticism... Before you bash me for not having all the real MLB cities with their current team names the reason is that even though they are full of tradition I can't stand team names that don't make sense (Detroit Tigers, there aren't any Tigers in Detroit and never have been, just like Bobcats in Charlotte ).So teams that I thought had boring names or names that didn't match their cities history or animals were changed (with some mythical creatures staying in). And Birmingham is England, not Alabama! but I guess you can use it for Alabama too. Here is a sample of the logos Last edited by Aumakua; 05-31-2010 at 11:11 PM. |

OK.. I had to check on these... I never doubted the bobcat is a relatively common wild animal in North America but I wasn't too sure about the tigers in Detroit...
Detroit Tigers: In the 19th century, the city of Detroit had a military unit called the Detroit Light Guard, who were known as "The Tigers". They had played significant roles in certain Civil War battles and in the 1899 Spanish-American War. Charlotte Bobcats: Named after the animal that is commonly found in North Carolina and is known for being sleek and athletic. ...just for curiosity sake...

I take it the Orcas must play in Portland, Maine, because you're sure not going to find whales in Portland, Oregon.

I was wrong with my bobcats in Charlotte, I didn't look it up just guessed (not a baseball team), I thought they were further down south. But Tigers in Detroit I will stick with them not keeping that name, and guys this is a fictional league, heck this whole game is fictional, just have fun with the logos
