Apparently only a few players on the top row have ears. Interesting.

Probably would have been easier to cut the mullet off, and beneficial to the eyes of readers

Someone's fired

Someone's fired

If they left it for sale, someone's blown up

That's the same as getting fired, isn't it? Only, you know, a little more literal...

Probably the DUP, UUP, TUP or the ESUP.

Of all the bad graphic designs in this thread, none have made me laugh like this one!

...it's too cartoony to be realistic, and too realistic to be cartoony.

Regardless, they f**ked up here.

Surely the target could have matched up with the Mariners logo...

It is matched up. It's because of the font on top of the circular design that makes it look off centre.

Though I do understand where you are coming from.

On centre yes, but look at the top and bottom of the target in relation to the logo.

The whole logo's base shape is rectangular. If the text was like that except on the bottom of the circlular design, it would be lined up perfectly.

It's perfectly centre. It's not actually bad graphic design, it's playing on people OCD for neatness.

I guess there must just be a rule in place where the Mariners want the logo AND text together at all times..?

 

[akkaps]

To me, I would not know that is the Mariners logo without the text.

 

[Javelin]

Given the target and the graphic/circular portion of the Mariners logo are the same size, I suspect if the designer had lined them up "properly" you would no longer be able to distinguish the target from the logo and the effect would be lost.

It looks like it's rolling it's eyes as if it's annoyed to be there.
