Thanks pilotman. I will try to get more done this weekend.

By the way does anyone know the correct pronunciation of Norfolk, Virginia.

Taken from a site for pronunciation of town names in Virginey.

Norfolk - Frequently mispronounced. Properly "NAW-fuk". Really. And make the second syllable as short as possible, almost "fk". Think of, "We don't drink. We don't smoke. Norfolk. Norfolk." If you can make that come out in a humorous manner, you have it exactly right.

Thanks Eugene, I knew it was an east coast town, but never being to that area I wasn't sure how it was pronounced by the locals.

By the way Norfolk, Nebraska is pronounced NOR-FORK ( Johnny Carson's home town)

My hometown is mispronounced a lot too.

They should actually be the Palm Beach Pathfinders. Sorry if I typed it in wrong.

Being from the midwest originally I would have pronounced it NOR folk, but being away from there for a while has changed it some. Just like Louisville is no longer Lou ee vil, but Lou a vul. Norfolk is now Nor fuk, but I guess I have to start pronouncing it differently when I go there.

No problem, I'll have to get cracking on your logos and stop playing around with the new game. Right now it's giving me headaches!

My hometown is always mispronounced by "outsiders" who assume WE don't know how to pronounce it right!

I learned about Louisville about 10 years ago from a guy who used to live there. Haven't seen him in about 9 years either LOL...

rocknfire7 · 06-24-2006, 05:19 PM

Ok, I had a little time this afternoon to make some more logos. Here is the first of several.......New Orleans Nightmares.

Also if anyone want some of these converted to png's for the new game let me know, although I don't know when I will be able to get them out

3 more...
salt lake screaming eagles
san antonio shamen
san diego shipbuilders (reds1 did a really good png for the new game in another thread)

PilotMan · 07-12-2006, 07:45 PM

alright, thanks for all your hard work on these logo's. I have been playing the new game as well as Puresim since it went on sale.

I know that you thing you are done, but I still have some teams without logo's if you have time. I don't know where they got misplaced but here they are:

Fargo Flying Tigers
Greensboro Genies
Honolulu Hitmen
Minneapolis Mightymen
Palm Beach Pathfinders
Seattle Seamen
Springfield Six-Guns
St. Louis Snappers
Yakima Yaks

I really like what you have done, and again, don't kill yourself for these.

rocknfire7 · 07-21-2006, 04:54 PM

Allright I got all your logos done ( except the soccer one, Do you want it in png or bmp? I don't remember.)

Anyway....

Flying Tigers...
