It's offseason time, you know what that means... INSANELY DUMB IDEAS!!!!!!!!! What better way to start the offseason then with a new logo thread with a even more ridicoulous looking replacement logo.
ROBOTS ON STERIODS!!! NO!!! JUST NO!!! AHH!!!
Listen, creativity is great and all. But, we all love the current crazy logo and have grown accustomed to it, and have battled opposing fans telling them we love it while they attempt to turn us into FC Dallas(copy history like Celtic anyone?). The logo is what makes the Crew different and this new logo idea just sucks.
Even worse is whoever made it, made a facebook group. If you want to fight for some cause, fight on improving the section. Or even better fight on curing world hunger or cancer or something. A new Crew logo, especially one that looks this awful, is just not a good idea. Anyone who joins that facebook group is an absolute moron.
The only logo change is this:
Ohh jeez...

I hope we all know that the star will not be added to the jersey next season. Next season the Crew will wear a special patch (think scudetto type in the serie a) that the previous years MLS Cup winner wears. The star will then be added to the jersey for the 2010 season.
OMFG, WHY ARE YOU PEOPLE ALL SO F***ING ATTACHED TO YOUR HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE F***ING LOGO?!?!?!
ARE YOU ALL COMPLETE NITWITS?
lol looking like shit makes u different all right
I mean... The current one sucks infinite. Be real.
While the new one jumps out at me at first, I think I agree with the dude in the facebook group who recommended adding a sledgehammer and pickaxe to the background figures for asymmetry. While it’s a bit evocative of old school propaganda styles from the red army as it stands, that can be a good thing if done properly.
And I DEFINITELY agree that the current one needs to go. I could churn that crap out with a stock photo and photoshop in no time. It’s the quality of the execution on the figures, not necessarily the concept that’s flawed. To please the public you’re going to need to branch away from the current one enough to make it seem worth it, but a couple things;
-Drop the serif font, and don’t let it bleed into the apex of the border on that shield. Switch it to a blocky bold face, even keep the bevel, but don’t utilize the sort of “soviet” feeling text. It’s visually pleasing, but kind of distracting from the Crew’s identity.
-Remove the recognizable faces from the figures, and bring in a more generic figure with hard features, like what’s been done already. I don’t know how someone can look at that and say “robot”, that’s simply not being constructive.
-Implement the star, but do it better than this: http://tinyurl.com/5lqhy9
