Huckleberry Posted July 2, 2016 Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 Logo seems so 80's , reminded me of Robocop or any other 80's movie :p Not saying its bad though. But for some reason Robocop came to mind when seeing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PASabreFan Posted July 2, 2016 Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 Well, the font clearly is associated with the team. Brawndo picked up on it. But how long will that font be used by the Sabres? It could be gone in October. You might want something that stands on its own. This font still might, I'm not sure. Looking at it more broadly, not that you care what people like Musichunch or GoDD think, but it could give the impression that we are an arm of the team, the "official" message board. Is there some coordination with the Sabres here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoss Posted July 2, 2016 Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 The "community forums" part looks blocky and meh but otherwise looks fine. I liked the old font and was actually admiring it to myself the other day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked the old font and was actually admiring it to myself the other day. I'm open to variations. I do admit to having conflicted views about slanted and non-slanted text together. I'd need some feedback from designers on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewookie1 Posted July 2, 2016 Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 The Es and the B look a little weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PASabreFan Posted July 2, 2016 Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 I like the contrast of the slanted and non-slanted text. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDS Posted July 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 I'm also not sold on "Community Forums" but it was the only phrase long enough that I could think of and still have reasonable kerning between the letters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doohickie Posted July 2, 2016 Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 Looks great, keeping with the Sabres New Sharpen your Swords Theme I'm neutral on it. I think the Sharpen Your Swords theme is a temporary promotion that will be "long in the tooth" by the end of this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drunkard Posted July 2, 2016 Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 It needs a touch of gray just like the Sabres use. Maybe in the armpits of the P, B, and R. In all seriousness though it looks fine to me. I'd probably go for a more standard font and maybe have a picture of a Sabre under the script but this one works.

biodork Posted July 2, 2016 Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 Agree with wookie... not a big fan. But it's such a minor part of the experience here that I'm not worried about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueBlueGED Posted July 3, 2016 Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 I like it. I'm also as artistic as a tank, so take it for what it's worth :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LastPommerFan Posted July 3, 2016 Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 (edited) My brain initially read the B as a Q and took a second to recognize that it wasn't reading the word squarespace.

Doohickie Posted July 3, 2016 Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 But it's such a minor part of the experience here that I'm not worried about it. Yeah. The logo is probably the backup goalie of the website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
