Sorry guys....two more logos needed !

Skywalker76 · 10-17-2004, 01:43 PM

Due to the fact that I can't create a league with just 10 teams I need two more logos:

1. Detroit Wolverines

2. Louisville Dark Blues

Once again plese keep in mind that my league will start in 1897.

Thanks a lot guys

Not necessarily. Check my response in the thread you started in the other forum.

O.K. if anybody has the time to make these logos, great-- but it doesn't hesitate, cause I'll try to get my league going with a custom schedule for 10 teams.

I'm not really good at these old logos, but here's one interpretation:

Best I could come up with:

I don't mean to criticize... much

... but the Dark Blues is a fairly lame nickname.

If you want the name to be a color, the Louisville Maroons not only sounds better, but sounds "older" too.

... yep, they just loved maroon in the 1800s... couldn't get enough of it...

Just a suggestion.

I don't have a problem with criticizing jmm8356 but I have to disagree about this

.
Dark Blue might be a lame name but there actually was a team in the 1877 National League called the Hartford Dark Blue. So besides "Maroon" people also seemed to like dark blue.

Skywalker76 · 10-19-2004, 03:03 AM

Hey Knuckler, your Wolverine logo is awesome. Could you maybe add some color ?

Thanks a lot.

I stand corrected. Apparently, my beef is with the aesthetic tastes of 19th-century Connecticut and not you. My apologies.

And here they are.

I found a Covington Blue Sox logo from 1913, I'm sure someone could make a Louisville Dark Blues logo out of it. If nobody else does, I will when I get home.

Eugene Church · 10-19-2004, 01:20 PM

Jeff, thanks for the story about the Hartford Dark Blues.

You're welcome. Just happened to come across it when looking for logo material.

Here's what I ended up with.

Eugene Church · 10-20-2004, 12:36 AM

Nice old-fashioned look to it...well done.

I sure am glad you made the Dark Blues dark blue.

dcpcarmona · 10-20-2004, 12:37 AM

Very nice, could you possible make the Louisville into Memphis?

dcpcarmona · 10-20-2004, 12:38 AM

Also, could you replace the figure with a pair of dark blue sox?

Not a problem. Just need to dye a pair of Red Sox.
