Club Badge (merged)

If we didn't have rights to the 1972 badge, why were we allowed to produce and sell retro shirts with that badge on before we registered it in September?
 
50 - 50 on the MuEN website poll like to not like new badge. IMHO unless it's more than 2/3 in favour it shouldn't be used Still with the current badge and get a expert consultancy team in to design a new badge ready for 17/18 season the fans could then be given a choice of three final designs to vote on instead of this rushed process. How about someone set up a vote on here?

May or may not be the case but we can't all be rags in disguise mate.
 
Looks sound, everyone knows we're a football club why on earth does it need to be on the badge, a massive improvement for me and a well done.

not really.... was just asking why you thought that. other posters have answered mate. lots of different opinions, everyone won't always be happy no matter what it looked like

I've seen your designs where you say c is the best and its pretty much the exact same, you've just moved the inner shield a bit and got rid of the rivers. this badge just needs reworking a bit

Honestly mate, I wasn't being a dick so apologies if that's how it came across.

I've tried to explain to another poster earlier in the thread why it looks cartoonish and it's not easy to explain. I just look at it straight away and think cartoon, a few people I showed it to said exactly the same thing. You and others can't see it.

I think the shield popping out of the circle looks like something on a Warner Bros cartoon. I guess the huge text and loads of white space makes it look like it was made for toddlers as well. Also the shield being bevelled at the top, the top half of the shield with the boat being bigger than the bottom half with the rose makes it look like it's popping out of the shield, the designer would probably call it "dynamic". These things aren't standard in traditional badge design, they are features you would usually see in a cartoon drawing.

The colours used almost look a bit primary coloured which also makes it look like it is for toddlers.

All of these things might not mean anything to you, it's in the eye of the beholder. I don't know anything about fine art, someone could explain to me why the mona lisa is a masterpiece, but I don't see what they see, and no amount of explanation will make me see it through their eyes.

If you don't see it as cartoonish, no amount of explaining will make you see it through other people's eyes. But some people do see it as cartoonish, not saying their opinions are any better or worse than yours, people just interpret things differently.
 
For all on here saying don't like it, crap, rubbish, cartoony, embarrassing & stronger versions of disagreement; i would like to see an alternative with the elements being used. Or its a mute argument is it not?
