Logo request ... sorry, I previously posted this in the wrong place

spelvin56 · 09-04-2006, 02:59 PM

Hi everyone -

I am a first time poster, long time reader of the site. Hopefully someone can help me out ... I am putting together a Connecticut solo fictional league for 6.51 and I am looking for a logo. My team name is the New Haven Elm Cities, which was taken from the city's 1875 National Association team. I have been looking with admiration at some of the great circular logos and I was hoping that someone might be willing to do one for me. I am not particular. My only request, if someone is willing to do one for me, is that it have a retro feel. Thanks for your help and, to all the people doing logos, keep up the good work. They are great!

Have you had a response to your request? If not, I will attempt something this week.

Hi StorminZ -

I did not yet receive a response to my request, but anything anyone can do for me would be greatly appreciated! Thanks for taking a look at my request and keep up the good work!

Spelvin, here's an idea for the New Haven Elm Cities ... I've kept it simple in that it's letters/words and a baseball bat in order to give it a retro-feel ... no dramatic graphics ... I chose the colours of green and yellow for contrast (and the green for the 'elm' part).

I know you wanted a circular logo and I will do that, but this is just a start.

Let me know if this works for you.

I noticed a flaw in the lettering of "Elm Cities" in the first post of the circular logo ... this version is fixed.

Noticed another item that needed correction ... hopefully I've cleaned it up now.

Wow ... I have to thank you. That logo gives off exactly the kind of vibe I was looking for! The colors are a great fit (happened to be the ones from my old high school) and the bat is a nice touch. Great work! I really appreciate it!

Spelvin, you're very welcome ... the pleasure really is mine ... graphics (and drawing) are a great release for me ... a creative outlet!

And thank you for the kind words!
