    Re: Miami Dolphins New Logo Thread

    The left facing Dolphin is another minor detail suggesting this is not a hoax.

    I'm not certain it is a game jersey though. Looks like it could be a coaches shirt.

    The current Dolphin is flopped on the helmet. So it is nothing that breaks with tradition.

    So...

    This was posted over at finheaven...

    Hey Guys -

    I'm not sure if anyone remembers (or cares) but that's the real logo. I posted a long time ago about how I was fortunate enough to have seen the logo but couldn't leak it myself (as it had a real chance to be traced back to my source) but I described it. Well... that's it. I showed the rough concept to The Walrus at the time, so he can confirm.

    Anyways - hope that clears stuff up. Personally? I like it.

    yeah, the jersey color is much lighter (like those fake phins jerseys on eBay several years ago) and the dolphin looks more teal.

    The Dolphins are going to be so pissed. They almost made it to the revealing without getting the official logo leaked.

    It appears that way but may not be.

    It could easily be a trick of light, which is what I'm betting. I cannot imagine the reasoning behind having two different shades so similar. From a design and practical standpoint it makes little sense.

    You people are getting suckered in just because it's your team that came up with the logo. If it was anyone else, you'd be pointing and laughing. Humpty the whale is not a good look for us.

    Well the one thing we know by looking at it is that this is a replica jersey and not an official jersey. The majority of the time the logo and Nike swoosh would be stitched on if it was the real game worn jerseys (unless you are Dallas).

    I posted earlier that I hoped the tail part we dont see flattens a bit. Looking closer at it, it sort of does look like its kinda starting to turn downward some. Maybe its just me hoping........

    Why dont you go stand on the grass next to a 'no standing on the grass' sign to prove you are a bad *** agin. That raised your street cred. It was a good look.

    Definitely not my first choice, but I could be OK with it, depending on any other changes incorporated into the uni's.

    Fingers crossed.

    E-goddamn-nough with your constant stream of whiny bullsh|t.

    If you don't like the logo, the FA signings, Ireland, Ross, your life...fine, explain it and defend your point, but these annoying and frankly stupid declarations don't belong in here...they belong in the rants forum or in the comments section of news articles. Yeah....you're that guy.

    That's the danger of waiting until April to debut the logo. The Jags debuted theirs around a month or so ago, that would've been the perfect time.

    I like it and I am amazed at how a few little tweaks to the original "leaked" logo could make such a big difference. However does this look photoshoped to anyone else? The logo looks small in comparison to the person's hand and the nike swosh. Also if you look at the nose of the dolphin it looks like it is laying flat while the material behind it has a slight bend. Maybe I'm just be paranoid with all the false reports out there.

    Considering they have to start with a dolphin and make it look cool, I think it's great.

    The colors look great on that.

    I wished the jersey color matched the lighter blue color of the dolphins though.

    Take it for what it's worth, but a guy claiming to be a graphic designer for the Phins says that isn't the logo.

    I was going to say the same thing. The shading has been notorious for looking completely different depending on the environment its in.

    if its not real then fine, if it is, man its 100x better when they fixed it up. I mean
    [​IMG]

    everything wrong about this logo is fixed. No eye, the terrible navy on the back fin, ruins the whole logo, fixed, the navy on the navy on the dolphin flipper is gone, its so much better then the "leaked design" I really like it, the only thing that I have to get used to is the sun, but If thats it I wont get mad. I really like what they have done with it. amazing how a few tweeks can change everything. The little navy in this logo dosnt even bother me

    I completely agree. The original leak used the navy all wrong. The new leak uses the navy as shadowing.

    this.

    People who hate this logo, look at all the logos in the Dolphin logo contest in 99designs, Miami Hearld, and Uni watch, this logo here is easily better then any logo in the contest. Its even better then Redpins logo. Looks more like a NFL logo then it. I think people will grow to love it, its amazing how much i didn't liked the leaked logo, and how much i like this one. The navy placement and the eye makes this logo great. Its funny how early stages of things change to the final product, but they got this right, im excited if this leak is legit!

    I am not even worried about the tail because I trust them that they got it right! cant wait to see it paired with the Uni! this makes the wait till April 30th easier!

    The old logo was small as well on the jerseys.

    If real (and it looks real to me) this is exactly what all of us who said the leaked prototype was probably real said it would be. It's a tweaked version (basically colors and the eye), in the same pose with the tail up. It is worlds better than the special olympics dolphin we've always had.

    As for those calling it a whale, I can only assume that either they're just b*tching for the sake of b*tching or they have never actually seen a dolphin.

    Honestly, those who don't like it, i can't blame them. Everyone has different taste, and especially change so drastic people dont want to see it. So I get why people hate it. also again, different taste. People love peanut butter, I hate it.
