It's Logoriffic Johnny Unitas!
Notice anything different about South of the Border? That's right, after many months - five of them to be exact - and the quiet resignation that this blog would not get a logo ever, and that it didn't really need one - as silly articles on South in the the IPL and reciprocal plugs with the Pumpkin Seed Eaters would be its bread and butter - thanks to George Kouroumalis, we have the blog equivalent of a fancy new hairstyle, much more Joe Namath than Johnny Unitas, thankfully. I won't harp on about the previously promised but never seen logo to be... let by gones be such and such and all that. This is the revised version of the original design, which I won't put up because, though it showed promise, doesn't come near this one for dazzling effect, and overall blending in with the current setup. Looks good, and a welcome addition to the set up. of course, if someone else thinks they can do better, by all means submit your logos, and I'll rotate them around every few weeks or so. Now go back to whatever it was you were doing.

A few notes on comments.
We've had a lot of fun over the years with my freewheeling comments policy, but all good things must come to an end. Therefore I will no longer be approving comments that contain personal abuse of any sort.
Still, if your post doesn't get approved straight away, it's probably because I haven't seen it yet.
As usual, publication of a comment does not mean endorsement of its content.

Hate to be critical but it looks too corporate -- to related to the club in an official sense because of the centrality of the logo. And there needs to be some graphic expression of the blog's South of the Borderness -- it's alterity needs to be clear.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the feedback. As the entry states, anyone who thinks they can do better is more than welcome to try.
ReplyDeleteAs for your specific concerns... the South of the Borderness is expressed in the written content, and anyone who takes the site as an official vehicle of the club is making the same casual/stupid mistake as that of a certain athletics organisation who believe that smfcboard has sort of official capacity too.
