Looks great!

I also like the second one. Nice work!

If you want it to say "soccer" in some form, you might want to put "The Herd" on top, with "Bucks Soccer" on the bottom.

Another option would be to draw a soccer ball where you put the double-dots between the top and bottom wording, but this might be too cutesy. A soccer ball somewhere might be desirable, though.

My question about the writing under the three bucks: if you create the logo on a patch (two-by-two or three-by-three inches), would it be readable?

Artistic criticism only: there is almost too much green and yellow/orange in the drawing. I would make the inner and outer cicles black, to give it more contrast and depth.

(Sorry, everyone, I've stayed away from the boards since my overseas trip; still way too busy. Also, I have another appointment on May 9, so I'll have to miss the friendly. I'm working toward running the TV production on May 17.)

I don't know if I can do the soccer ball thing, I'm not that advanced where I can draw something, and I think it would be a little over the top.

I do think its probably a good idea to put "The Herd" on the top and Michigan Bucks underneath. I'll play around with some black to see what it looks like. Stay tuned, by tomorrow I will have something up and if its good we submit it!

Alright here is the new one, with some added Black.

Marc,

I like this one a lot. I don't think a soccer ball is really necessary. Its just my opinion but I don't necessarily like soccer related logos to have a ball in them. Do other sports teams logos or supporters logos have the object that their team plays with in said logo? Very rarely. A few MLS teams still do this, but I think this will work for now.

Alright cool...I think the one with some added black is the best looking one. And ya I tried to mess around with a soccer ball and it just didn't fit.

So if I don't hear a massive wave of complaints about it, than we have reached our logo for the time being!

spot on .. the text reads much better now.

Good luck you Herd, maybe we meet in the U.S. Open Cup.

Thanks, maybe we will see you in the Open Cup!
