I have been fooling around with a new logo, as part of a site redesign. Let me know what you think, especially of the difference between outlined text and black text.

For those who have forgotten, the three coloured ovals are supposed to represent the three stages of football: kids playing with an orange plastic footy around the house; juniors where you play with a red ball during the day; and seniors where you play with a yellow ball under lights.
I'm thinking that the ovals would have mouseovers to link to the iPhone, Android and tablet apps when they're done (no I don't know when!).
I like the current logo :(
I like the black and white better though.
Sorry if this seems harsh, but I honestly don't think this is a good new look for FF and I also have never seen an orange footy. It was always red plastic balls.
I prefer this logo, which was created by Hawk_88, some time ago I think.

I remember that. TBH m0nty, I much prefer this one too. It's a more modern looking logo and it looks kinda badass. :P

I agree completely here, very clean looking too
Agree with the guys above me. I do like the red/yellow/orange model but it looks a bit...Outdated. :-[
Agree with those before but I also like our current one.
Yep tend to agree with the comments above.
Alternately, there's a larger version of the current logo.

I only noticed the orange in that logo now... Same idea?
I like hawk's one as well... Modern and Slick :)
I must say that Hawks logo looks the best of those said in this thread. It looks modern, bold and attractive. The other one that does seem a little old and possibly outdated, but I do like the idea behind the different colour ball concept.
the whole site looks like ass so why worry about changing the logo?

'part of a site redesign'
so, he's apparently redesigning the site, and wanted our opinion on the logo.
the general consensus is the the proffered one seems if anything a little more dated than the current.

Yep, Hawka's is by far the best on the eye. :)
It does look very good :)
Maybe m0nty you could run a comp for a new logo, winner gets prize? haha
yep, why fix what ain't broke?

I'm all for a logo competition.
Of course, you might want to announce the winner from the Survey Monkey competition first before running another one. :P

I wasnt going to bring it up but....
this ^ :P
One of the problems I have with Hawka's logo is that I'd like to see it in lower resolutions first. I don't give the logo much room on the page, so it needs to look just as good at 60 pixels high. My suspicion is that it's not simple enough for that purpose. If Hawka wants to prepare a 60 pixel high version, that would be handy.
Hawk_88 is actually the designer of the logo not Hawka :P. And he took a hiatus from FF a while back but may be back here and there now so somebody could pop him a PM to come look in here :).

Not sure if this is what you mean, but I resized it to be 60px high. Also got rid of the white backing because the transparency will/would make it easier to plaster it onto...stuff.

Looks good 8)
Hey guys. Someone shot me a message about this thread.
I'd totally forgot I had made this logo. If Monty, or anyone else for that matter, wants to use it, please feel free.
I think first and foremost that it is worth pointing out that when you create something, especially if you are the sole creator, you can sometimes want to keep the "ownership" of the creation process. Not talking for Monty here, but if he feels that way about this site, then he may well want to create the logo himself, which of course is his right.
That being said, if Monty did want to open it up, I wouldn't just take my logo. Back when I had spare time (oh the memories) I would work on creating more modern versions of current logos just to keep my creative juices flowing when work was, let's say, less than inspiring. Normally when I create a new logo, I do not necessarily limit myself by simply reinterpreting the old one.
I am sure there are many other creative people out there too that would produce great ideas, probably better than mine. If it is something that is being opened I think it should be a process available to everyone.

looks killer
No need to be modest hawk_88 i could'nt even draw something better than that. Thats the winner as far as im concerned.
m0nty's not that shallow that it's all gotta be his project or nothing, aint that right m0nty. Were a community, would be good for anyone new or old to have a crack so i get that youd like to see everyone get a go but unless m0nty excepts it in colour pencil im stuffed. Untill i see better thats the winner. Im guessing theres plenty among us that could have a crack at designing something so lets see em or hawk_88 has it in the bag.
I dunno, Nails has some type of rustic charm to it...

Something spiritual about it to, like an Aboriginal dot painting.
I really like some of that art but by a whisker i gotta go with h_88's work still.Sorry Nails.
So when is my design getting implemented?

Yes we all love change dont we, using the changes to DT as an example. :P
m0nty also suggested in his tweet that it will be something never before seen in Fnatasy Footy so its got me wondering is it a site revamp or is it something else entirely. :-\
he's going to be mixing the two internet greats.
fantasy football and porn.

Gave you your 500th cheer for that. ;)

ROFL!! Nails you never fail to brighten up any thread! :D
@Hawk_88; That logo is brilliant, restating an early comment, it looks very badass! 8)
Really?? A makeover??
I'm intrigued as to what this makeover's gonna be! :o
didn't he say we would get changes in Feb? :(
looks like this idea is dead in the water :-\
To be honest, little offended my logo never got accepted.
Any updates on this m0nty?
Make over soon??
