Glad you guys are enjoying it. I thought it was pretty well done, that guy is great with Illustrator.

In fairness that is a vintage mark recognized by the university that is already being used on tshirts and such under the "wabash collection". So it is readily available to approved designers anywhere.

There are slight changes on this one with the current official K-State font and baseball's interlocked KS on the front.

This is the original version.

Why?

terrible is too strong of a word. i'm just not a fan. something weird about it i don't like... too "modern" maybe? i dunno

star seed 7 · « **Reply #3005 on:** April 26, 2015, 04:02:38 PM »

and the slight italics make it look nascary

What bothers me about our current font is just the letter, "K," and disproportioned the top right, "/," is.

Anytime you want to criticize our serpentine just take a look at our neighbors to the east and their horrible font. You'll instantly feel better about ours.

Really back tracked your original statement after _Fan's strongly worded response. Wow, ease up on this guy _Fan.

Just be glad you all haven't been force-fed a Nike-fied uniform/brand overhaul full of bullshit jargon and corny ass gimmicks.

I have liked serpentine or babylon5 italic as our official font from the start. I like the clean, modern look. It was nice that K-State athletics finally chose a brand and stuck with it. IMO they made good choices.

I am glad.

When Huggins came and we finally got a full Nike contract we had another font, and I don't remember the name. (see Cartier's jersey below)

Then serpentine/babylon5 came and we kind of used both IIRC, then finally settled on one font.

Again, IMO, we made the correct choice.

kso_FAN · « **Reply #3015 on:** April 27, 2015, 08:00:08 PM »

They don't look similar at all.

WillieWatanabe · « **Reply #3016 on:** April 27, 2015, 08:13:32 PM »

_FAN, they're both slanted. it's so obvious.

Seven doesn't know the difference between italic and oblique fonts? What a rube.
