Opinion Adelaide Crows New Logo Discussion

[radiojake]

I don't hate it on the proviso they just clean it up like others have done with examples

 

[Miss Vanessa]

Initial thoughts were surely that can't be real. That's cr*p

But someone sent me the photo realigned, and without that stupid blue background. I don't actually mind it.

Is it better than what we’ve got? Probably. But it’s still eye watering bad.

 

[Mr_Moogle]

The AI ones are all so terrible. We aren't in the age of Skynet just yet.

 

[secondary]

It's really odd and not the direction I thought they would go at all.
I actually kind of love it in an ugly retro futurism kind of way.

 

[Geoffa32]

The leaked rough version was bad.

The C9 one better.

Hopefully some more polished final version is much better.


Don't mind the concept.

 

[JPetro83]

Happy Friday People....

Actually, that is much better! hmmm

With pre season training only a month away you would think the new crows training gear and apparel would already be in its final stages at O'neils.. so the logo has already gone to print you would think

Right back at ya!

 

[Mostyn]

Just a couple of runs on a AI image gen can do better than that crap.

These aren't logos. They're illustrations.

 

[Pappagallo]

Pardon the intrusion.

I think it’s almost there, the basic shape of the crow is fine. They’ve just butchered the area around the wing trying to integrate the red and yellow.

This is a crude edit but I think it looks miles better with the wing simplified like this.

I’d say so. It’s possible this wasn’t quite the final version, like they leaked an earlier revision, and I’m not sure what they do with that yellow font at small size, or on white background, but if anyone’s opinion is that they like it pending major changes I think there will be disappointment.

Same goes for the “at least it’s better than the last one because it’s cursed, something something, Trigg” people if we don’t have any success in the near future.

I expect it will look better when released in high quality and actual products, we’ve seen it in the worst light and expectations are now low, but I’d guess that the logo is the logo.

This morning I was seeing an SA coastline.
Any opportunity to make that more prominent

What annoys me is the club continues to let their fans down with rubbish like this. They should have came up with 3 designs and put it to vote from the members. They NEVER listen to the fans.

So, what 10 minutes and some random on Bigfooty has fixed months of work and thousands of dollars?
Good one AFC. Best people in the right seats.
The club is a f@#$ing joke. Pathetic from top to bottom.
I'm convinced we could sack the lot, replace them with people randomly chosen from bigfooty and run the club better.

This looks a lot better to me. Simplified. Maybe a tad less white between the stripes.

Exactly.
Everyone is looking at a blurry photo of a computer screen, shot from an acute angle, on a busy background. Of course it'll look shit.

I'll reserve judgement until November when it comes out, but this is still an upgrade over the Baltelaide Cravens mashup attempt from 15 years ago. I'm positive with the way the club's going.

You might be the only one…

Neither of that changes the logo, you can still see what it would look like in good quality straight on, it’s rubbish.

 

[crow2crow]

What?
You commented on a logo where the crow is black.
You wrote crows are black?
How else can you interpret it?

you said in response to my comment you didnt think the crow could be another colour. why? did I suggest another colour? NO. I was complementing

Another colour that’s not navy, red or yellow.
ie black.
I don’t believe the crow should be black it’s not one of our colours.

Blacks not a colour

The thing I also like about this one is the separation between the colours means you can use it on a single colour item (Eg. a navy hat) with a raised effect, or in a two colour item (eg. a navy hat with white logo).

This appeals to me as an adult male.

 

[SugarShane]

Chatgpt to the rescue
Seriously....surely we cant end up with a logo 1000 times worse than one produced by chat gpt in 10 secs..

Every time a logo comes out everyone jumps on AI and makes these terrible looking video game-esque "create a team" type logos, surely people don't actually think they look good do they?

I've heard this before and it's wrong. We have used black crows before and it looks good.

We are not limited to 3 colours, crows are black, it's completely fine to use it.
