    When we're talking about the "leaked" one, we are talking about the one from a while back that was similar to the Dolphin stadium one with the tail right? Or is there a new leaked logo. Because I thought Barry Jackson said he spoke to the former players that saw it and they said it wasn't like the originally leaked one.

    My guess is that the actual logo will be very close to that leaked prototype but with the tail down.

    Im not too hip to this thread anymore cause its too much reading of the same stuff while we wait for this to be over with

    but out of curiousity, what leads you to the conclusion about the tail? Seems random, but i'm assuming thats because I missed something

    Well for me, from the few vague statements coming from some people who supposedly have seen it, it doesn't appear that it will be a whole lot different from the one we have now, just modernized a bit. As a couple of people mentioned above, one person on a logos board who has reportedly has seen it (and is supposedly reliable with his information), stated that we've basically already seen the logo, which leads me to believe it's the original "leaked" one but just in the more traditional position, or close to it.

    PhinGeneral, can you post a picture of "the leaked logo" so we can all see what you're talking about?

    Here is the supposed leaked one again.

    I have an interesting question for anyone who looked thru the logo contest pages. Of all the ones we saw which one did we not see?


    This one was not on there. So we better get ready for it to look something just like this.

    There was a post I saw somewhere (maybe here?) that showed the same logo with the tail down. It was on the same kind of paper and same type of pic as the original leak and it came after many here (and elsewhere) complained that the up tail made it look like a whale. I don't agree about the whale comparison, but my gut says that the leak was on purpose and that they monitored comments to gauge the reaction. I don't think they expected approval since history has shown that people almost always resist change so that wouldn't cause them to go back to the original, but I do think they would make smaller tweaks. The tail was IMO the most common specific complaint. I think that will be the tweak.

    you may have a loose definition for media outlets. NONE of the usual s. flo. news outlets or any NFL ESPN or anyone of note said anything about it. A couple of reporters, through their twitter feeds, entertained questions regarding the logo, but no one said that was the logo, and in fact said that wasn't it at all.

    I like that one. If we switch to it, Im ok with it. I fear something thats a dramatic or garrish departure from what we have.

    Well, there is one guy in the Herald thread that submitted 3 of them that are very similar to this so maybe we'll get lucky and it won't be close to this.

    I hope our new colors look like these, am I right. The colors couldn't get any more perfect than this IMO.
    I'm a greater fan of us in aqua, as orange/white doesn't do it for me as much.... although it probably looks better when it's by itself.

    The top of that D is exactly what the logo should be, very large on the helmet. Put a sun behind it if you wish. I'm in favor of the more corporate, faceless dolphin. It's timeless. That's all we're seeing anyway.

    What's this I'm hearing about the colors being different ? Did I miss something ?

    Maybe the color change explains the excitement of the older players that saw the logo. Maybe the logo change is slight and involves more color change then actual logo change??

    Ok...heres a link to a pretty cool logo I have not seen......supposedly it is one of several in the running.....

    http://niketalk.com/t/332565/2012-nike-nfl-apparel-footwear-jerseys-april-3-launch/1980

    I cant seem to get the logo to embed...so if anyone else can that would be great. It does seem to fit the color scheme well...and actually looks really sharp. Scroll down till you see the Phins helmets....and its the last of the prototypes....

    FYI: See Post 1994....

    I'd like it more if the font for "olphins" wasn't horrible. The kerning is off, the "o", "p", "s" don't look like they belong to the same family as each other or go with the other letters. All of it, including the "D" is waaaaay to italicized.
