Heard there was a heads up for a new logo for our fine Blog. So i found some free time and laid it down. Hope you dig.

Glad you like it.
was going for noticeably chargers, and law-abiding.

Its nice...
but if it was a little less cartoony, I’d love it.

how close are we allowed to get to the official
Font and Colors? The closer the better I say. And maybe a little less “beachy”

Three options
1. Beachy
2. Stormy
3. Horsey
Beachy works for me.
Colors we can do…..font is a little trickier.

Pretty good.
I like that the Charger bolt logo forms the crest of the wave.

This looks great...
I agree about the font, and I’d like a slightly more defined bolt. Otherwise, terrific work.

Great feedback
Thanks, especially for a first draft. I just got the chargers fonts (the classic with the goalpost “h” and the blocky one). so i’ll try a couple things out and post ‘em. As far as making it look more bolt-y, not too sure what i could do without infringing… but i’ll take a crack at it.

It’s a little more agressive looking. Scrapped the hokey-yet-agreeable beatles font. As far as the colors go i sampled them straight from the actual chargers logo.
Better?

Love the wave
Doubt we could use the font.
I’ve put in a request to change the logo to one of these.

does the BFTB logo
have to be more portrait sized than landscape sized?
by Stephen (shaynes41) on Mar 4, 2010 12:06 PM PST up reply actions
Yes

Cool
Any changes needed can be made, so if there’s a problem with the font, i could do a blocky Chargers-ish font. can make it portrait too. won’t be at my comp ’till tmw, so any changes suggested can be seen then. thanks again for the great response!

Love this!
I can’t speak for anyone else, but I’m totally fine with this.

of katsushika hokusai’s the Great Wave. Good work!
