but it doesn't take a genius to see that black and gold isn't aesthetically pleasing… so you're an idiot with no taste for liking those colours...

I don't think you appreciate the complex geometry//symmetry of the apple logo, whereas the claw marks on the raptor logo look like mlse gave a blindfolded man a hacksaw.

I concur. Take out the white outlines. We don't need it.


it needs outline… if you go with a red ball, you need a red outline to tie it together… no outline looks incomplete.

It needs to be red with red and white/black trims

People need to spam the **** out of every MLSE account on twitter with this logo. The red ball NEEDS to be our primary logo since it seems like we're keeping this look for good, and have the copper ball as the secondary logo or something. I'm just not feeling the grey ball at ALL, it looks really bad imo

Agreed, from a graphic artist perspective it needs the circle to tie it in together.

clearly people hate this logo more than I thought....and since our fan base is huge and enough people are complaining, I can imagine they will tinker the logo.

"this new logo looks like it was made in a rudimentary graphics application on a Franklin by your son’s or daughter’s middle school history teacher for a field trip."

"Nothing about this execution could be called good or professional. "

"This is really really sad."

"I'm thoroughly disappointed by this "rebrand""

"I can appreciate what the designers were tying to do, but sadly, they failed miserably."

"The epitome of missed opportunity."


and so on.



So....do you think we are talking about the Raptors?

Nope.

This is a piece written in 2010 about the new logo of the Golden State Warriors.

Image

http://www.underconsideration.com/brand ... #.VJSfssA4

That logo is now considered one of the best...or at least better...logos in the league.


THIS!

3 years from now when we're winning an NBA title, you'll love this logo.

Great logo.


that's why i'm inclined to trust the decision of a paid design team rather than a bunch of random fans… the same fans who years ago **** on the purple colour scheme, loved the red, now hate the red and want to bring the purple back… lol… and like i said, it's not even an ugly logo… does it look similar to the nets? yeah… that's the only issue i see with it… and that doesn't bother me that much… from a design perspective it's simple and effective… it's a logo not a freaking website banner… and tbh, i've seen people give compliments to wallpapers and realgm art posted on this board that was not so pleasing aesthetically… and yet, people seemed to really like it… so imo it doesn't really matter what all the fans think, nor should they be allowed to vote on something like a logo… because what they pick will probably end up looking a lot tackier than this one...

again further exaggerating what I said to put yourself in the right when you said my design sucked but then liked the same design on the next page.


But I apparently hate picasso so what do I know :lol: :lol:
