Graphic Design Contests

Hello! I need a logo designed for a developmental pro basketball team that will play in the MABL this coming season. The name of the team is the 'New Castle Flight'. The colors will be the same as the Seattle Seahawks NFL Team: a light blue, dark blue, and a green. The logo will be used on apparel, promotional materials, print materials, web, etc. Maybe include a phoenix type bird and a basketball, or something that implies motion? I'm open to different ideas. Thanks!

Abdou- Yes, that should be fine.

katesrobyn- Great! I look forward to your entry!

**RobK** · 02-09-2010, 12:59 AM

I will submit something soon.

**DarkLordSith** · 02-09-2010, 02:06 AM

Me too.

**DarkLordSith** · 04:42 AM

Heres mine.

Feedback appreciated.

DarkLordSith- I would like the logo to be more fun, not as rigid.

I also would like to see more color- the green is missing and maybe some white to break things up.

The logo doesn't really say basketball team to me. I think this would work for an airline company logo though.

Thanks for the effort! Please post again

I have a few other concepts, but unfortunately, Iam very busy with paid work these days and dont have much time to participate

...I'll give it a go

**katesrobyn** · 02:37 AM

removed.... for editing.

**Bakerbaker1-9** · 02-12-2010, 02:59 PM

I've done quite a few basketball logos in the past but let me know what you think...

**court959** · 02-12-2010, 03:26 PM

twistedpiston- I like the bird and the colors. The font choice is a little plain and I would like to see a fresher font. Also I don't really like the edges of the basketball, but I get what you were going for. Good start!

katesrobyn- It seems like more of a logo for the MABL rather than the team. We don't need MABL in the logo, so maybe something without it? Thanks for the effort!

Bakerbaker1-9- Your logo is my favorite so far. I would like to see the bird a little bit smaller behind the text (keep the claws the same size). Also, could you extend some of the cracks from the claws into the words? That would be awesome. Can the one flat edge at the bottom of the tail feathers on the right be rounded out as well? Thanks!!!

**Bakerbaker1-9** · 02-12-2010, 04:42 PM

Thanks for the feedback and sorry about that flat edge, hehe. I saw it but forgot to fix it before posting

Here are the revisions though, if there's anything else you like to see modified just let me know. Thanks.

Bakerbaker1-9- Thanks for the revisions!

bigrival- That looks great. Can I see the 'Flight' a little wider (keep that font though if possible) and then the 'New Castle' in a different font, something a little straighter across and bold? Thanks so much!

okay, i will make a new one. thanks.

revised, see latest .........

Wow, kates, that one's really cool. The bird's strong as a logo with or without the lettering. A suggestion, though? Take the shield out, use the font of the first one on top, but move it up, and the lettering of the second one on bottom but move it down some.
