Retro Style Logos and Uniforms - Page 247

ghostrobot · 02-24-2015, 08:53 AM

Hey guys, I'm having trouble creating logos for this team so I figured I'd ask the professionals for some help.

Originally, this team was founded as the Alpine Lodge Base Ball Club. Later, they became the Alpine Base Ball Club; then the Denver Base Ball Club; and finally--the Denver Alpines.

I'm happy with the uniforms but feel free to mess around with them as well if you wish.

As always, any help is much appreciated.

Rockford was the first set made along with Kenosha soon after... Your not looking very hard... I have all the teams through 1947 completed and posted...

There have been issues regarding this for some time now... Don't know if its Photobucket, your browser or the OOTP site... You will have to click on the image in the post which will take you to Photobucket, then right click and save as, or you could just download the album from Photobucket to get them all at once...

Sometimes, I've noticed the files don't save correctly. What I do is click on "all files" when saving, and change the file name, as well as changing it to a .png.

This happens more often with Justafan's logos than with your uniforms, but it always works. Not sure if you can do that with browsers other than Google Chrome, though.

Came across this old Alpine Cowboys artwork today... Thought it would make a nice logo with a uniform set to go along with it...

The latter was apparently a real minor league team once upon a time.

Let me know if this works for you:

darkcloud4579 · 02-24-2015, 04:46 PM

Fantastic! Also did the Alpine Cowboys. Gonna be a minor league in my league for sure!

knuckler · 02-24-2015, 05:04 PM

I just assumed that you wanted to use the same colors, so if you decide to change, please don't hesitate to ask.

Really nice find on the Alpine logo, Tex, and the uniforms are fantastic. I have stopped in Alpine a few times on the way to El Paso and Big Bend which adds a bit of a personal connection for me. Thanks for posting.

Amarillo Gold Sox

Tx those Alpines logos and uniforms are awesome. Thanks for reworking them for me.

darkcloud4579 · 02-24-2015, 07:15 PM

Thanks guys for the gold sox changes.

One of my favorite things about this thread is all the different team names I have found for my league. I am not a creative guy when it comes to thinking about a bunch of cities and nicknames. Yes I know there's the nickname project, which is extraordinary, but it just doesn't have that retro feel. So for this post, I not only applaud the artists, tex and knuckler, but also the requesters for helping me flesh out my league with some great team names.

And the uniforms to go with the logo:

Thanks again, JP. It's hard to single anyone out given how many interesting teams have been mentioned, but I really like Dark Cloud's world - his team names and city choices are unique and really diverse. Wwines, JoJo and PW (with great back stories) come up with fun ideas as well, and we can't forget Steve Sax Syndrome's league which was the basis for this thread. Tex has brought to life a lot of under the radar teams from the past, too. There have been so many great contributors.

I have been thinking about the New England League the last few days, and I think that part of the reason that I didn't finish it was that I was never really satisfied with the teams and names that I came up with. I think I will re-post the structure and cities again and see if we can come up with better names as a group. I'd like to take a shot at a second level for the Keystone League as well.

I made a subtle change on the logo by reversing the color of the mountain and the space. I think it looks a little more natural as the gold now appears to be sunlight, and here is a set of uniforms to go with the logo. I think Tex probably could do a better job of incorporating all three colors into the uniform
