Logo Request

jaxmagicman · 12-27-2004, 12:51 PM

I am making 14 requests for logos. These names all have historical meaning, and they are meant for a league that is before our time, so there are two names that I would like to tell you is not meant to offend, it just goes with the league.

Now the 12 that aren't offensive:
Pennsylvania Loggers
Masschusetts Hilltoppers
Rhode Island Reds
New Hampshire Sailors
Delaware Warriors
Providence Plantation Pilgrims
New York Islanders
New Jersey Gunners
Virginia Liberty
North Carolina Pirates
Maryland Colonials
South Carolina Fighting Farmers

Ok now the two I need to explain before I ask:
Connecticut Hookers- This team is named after Thomas Hooker who founded the colony and later state of Connecticut.
And the last sure to offend but not meant to is the Georgia Crackers. This team is named after the farmers who would grow wheats and other products that needed to be "Cracked". Information can be found at this site: http://ourgeorgiahistory.com/history...history03.html

This one could be used for either the Hookers or the Pirates.

Chappy · 12-28-2004, 08:52 AM

Sure, it has nothing to do with Thomas Hooker, but it will take away the street walker connotations.

Chappy · 12-28-2004, 10:09 AM

Here's an attempt at the Pirates - sorry so basic, all I have is Paint.

(I think I removed all the pure black from both of these, so they should look okay in-game).

Chappy those are good. I did one for the loggers.

Eugene Church · 12-28-2004, 12:37 PM

Very nice work, Chappy and Clutch.

I think I will use all these. These logos will change over time. I was thinking that I should start with just letters. What do you guys think? And then move on to some of these logos?

jaxmagicman · 12-28-2004, 09:38 PM

Here is what I got for Georgia Crackers, I need to go back and fix the word Crackers. Anyone have a better idea?

jaxmagicman · 12-28-2004, 10:08 PM

Hilltoppers.

Not often around these parts you see a guy fulfill his own logo requests...

Yeah Sat, I can usually come up with some. I really wanted some more ideas as well. I really have no way to make New Hampshire look good. Maybe make the anchor smaller.

It is a lot of reading, but here is a study of the word "cracker".
