What is and what will never be

Post by cheekimonk » Sat May 24, 2014 10:59 am

Because I'm temporarily stuck in the Boonies, I can't download the league's "images" file which means I don't have our logos. What I do have, however, are the latest logos from the OOTP forum superstars (Cephus, justafan, et.al.) for OOTP15 that I downloaded when I bought the program (before I returned to Birmingham). Since the program, on my side, randomly picks existing logos, it's provided a unique chance to see alternate looks for almost all MBWBA teams. What I see is provided below for grins. Some are an improvement, some not:

JL Atlantic

Halifax Hawks

Image

Louisville Sluggers

Image

Baltimore Monarchs

Image

Greenville Moonshiners

Nothing here as I think "Moonshiners" is a custom nickname and logo

I really love the Surfers logo. Very well done.

The Hawks logo on the other hand is not so cool.

Monarchs, Tropics and Kernels logos were all used at one point. .In fact, isn't that the Kernels current logo?

Yeah, there are only 2 logos for Tropics and Kernels so not much for OOTP to randomly choose from.

The biggest improvement I saw was the Crusaders logo. Just love the colors on that "steel" armor base.

The Kraken logo, of course, is yours.

It is, but I took it off the "Sea..." somethings logo. Wanted a trident that could be formed, somewhat, into a 'C' for Carolina.

LOL...you aren't the only one. It is so NOT me, however. It won't be back as long as I'm in Long Beach!
