    Miami Dolphins New Logo Thread

    I looked at the two and studied them.looks pretty much the same and the small differences can be explained by the angle

    Has anybody seen any other variations of the dolphin with an upturned tail outside of the leaked one? Maybe if I saw one that looked more aggressive and a lot less passive Id be a little better with the upturned tail idea.

    I'll withhold judgement on the logo until a week after I study it and look at it. I loved the one logo everyone here likes. The popular one that everyone likes. Now I hate it and think it would get outdated quickly

    I doubt very much they would go all out and engrave a glass table with the new logo for many to see (and possibly photograph) befor they release the actual new logo to the public.

    I agree. But my rant was not about people's opinions about the logo itself.

    You can dislike your gift, but you don't whine about getting it before I told you you'd get it.

    Ben Volin claims he was told this morning it will have the fruity curved tail, according to his twitter.

    I agree completely. At first I thought it was great, now I'm not a fan.

    I agree, but a lot of the complaining is about a logo that many think will be the one the team uses...If not very close to it.

    Plus, I'm sure you understand, but this team has had a recent nack for making poor decisions...So I can understand pessimism. I don't think there is reason for it right now, but I can understand it.

    I personally, dont mind the leaked one. At this point, I don't care what it looks like. I just want to see a competitive team.


    Edit: Sorry this was for @His'nBeatYour'n ... didn't reply w/quote

    What I dont understand is that the logo on that desk that they are releasing now has NEVER been our logo:

    [​IMG]

    We've never had the dolphin jumping through the sun. So... why on what appears to be a very nice/expensive desk in an important conference room would they have an incorrect logo if this is in fact the old logo?

    Maybe someone goofed when they made the glass on top of the table and they haven't replaced it with the new logo yet.

    With what that would cost to have made... I'd think they would have the glass company remake it to the correct logo if they screwed up.

    I highly doubt that this table was recently purchased since they've been in the process of coming out with the new logo... so that means that they just let it be the incorrect logo for a long time unchanged...

    Same here. The upturned tail version would be good for a hotel, airline or one of those beach huts you buy beach balls, flip flops and sun tan oil. Too passive for an NFL team logo for me. If they just made the logo with a little less arch, a little sleeker and just a little more aggression it would be awesome! Thats sort of what I pictured this mornings leaked version was.....

    The logo on the table is our present one. There's nothing different about it at all, except the company that created it placed the back fin behind the sun burst. I hope Mr. Ross received a discount for that f up!!

    Simple, it's a different take they had on the logo for the desk.

    I think that logo was meant to look the way it does on the desk. Not a mess up

    Yeah most logos on merchandise i have have a break in the sunburst, its implied that the dolphins jumps through it.

    The logo on the desk is monochrome, hence the minor differences.

    I'm just trying to say the logo on the table that Hartline is in, is the present logo. It looks different because of the angle of which the picture was taken.

    Thought the same thing the lines break between sunburst and tail, while staying true up top. Shows they meant for the dolphin to jump through, actually nice more i look at it. These litle tweeks how the glass company did it made a big difference . much cleaner

    It is all the angle, it is the same logo...we all got fooled with the dolphin tail under the sun outline.

    I dont know why that would effect whether they make the tale appear to be in front or behind the sun...

    What I was trying to say is the sunburst breaks between the sun and tail so its not over or under. This is because older printing techniques. The idea was always the perception the Dolphin jumped through the sunset. Printing hadnt caught up yet. so its not a mistake.

    What are you talking about?

    It was never intended to be a "ring". It was a sun. It was always a sun. And the idea was never to have the dolphin jumping through a ring.

    OK OK so in front of the sun in your opinion. I thought different, always saw it was through the suns rays/Sunburst, imo it was a sunset why would a dolphin be in a sun :tongue2:. different perceptions. I understand completly now were you're coming from, i just missed it.

    True, it's a bit different, but I don't think they'd go through all this nonsense and tell people the new logo was a combination of new and retro if all the differences amounted to little more than a dolphin jumping through a sun ring.

    Well, again if what we saw in that black and white picture was the new logo... we only saw half of it. It could be missing the helmet (that part is cut off in the picture) which would be a very big difference IMO.
