What happened exactly?

A certain three striped brand (who will remain nameless) contacted the higher up of BigFooty and told them to tell us that we were not permitted to use their brand on our designs because it may lead people to thinking that they were actual designs (this was well before the realistic looking template era). This led to it basically being that if you used their logo you could be carded or banned from the board and the designs removed with the potential of them taking action against the designer or even the board.

Despite all of us at the time thinking it was just stupid as you could clearly tell that our templates were not of a professional standard and were certainly not actually made by them we followed the rules for a year or so and then just went back to using their logo again and they were not heard from again on here.

Haha imagine trying to enforce that rule over the internet. Instagram basically has an entire sub-culture of people doing alternate Nike branding and posters, they would need a full time team just report it all.

If a certain three-striped brand has a problem with any of my designs, they're more than welcome to hire me to prevent any confusion going forward.

I remember looking through them the other day, pretty sure I remember seeing a hammer and sickle as well.

I'm pretty sure it was set into place because Hawthorn's new brown-based guernsey and their clash was leaked by a certain poster? (Which I had hashtagged in my post on page 2 of that thread). I swear that was the instigator. Either that, or they were very close chronologically.

Absolute gold, hey? Haha

Seeing we are all in lock down I could easily make one up to pass the time in the morning and post it up

Team Nicknames

Could anyone tell me what’s the best way to do an clash version of the prison bars without annoying the Port Adelaide supporters

White prison bars on gradient of black into white?

Just inverse it

There is no best way.


...But no teal or grey - just black and white.

 

[Prison bar Pete]

2 extra bars on the front

Get the powers that be to allow us to wear the OG whenever we want, really.

Port supporters only get annoyed at recolours because they're regularly suggested to us as a way of wearing the bars without upsetting Collingwood, which then loses all meaning.

If Port were allowed to wear the bars as a home guernsey, recolours for clashes would make perfect sense.

Can someone please do a vectorised rendering of this logo?

Thank you.

Could a moderator help clean up my NRL Jerseys thread?

(This one)

Portfolio - NRL Jerseys, 1908–2006 – inspired by FootyJumpers

Inspired by @Mero’s fantastic website www.footyjumpers.com, this thread shall illustrate the jerseys worn in the NRL from its foundation in 1908 to 2006 and (probably, eventually) beyond. Unless otherwise specified, the jersey/uniform in each image was worn in every match in the years stated...

www.bigfooty.com

I’m replacing the images and everything’s getting out of whack because I have more images now.
I’d like all messages that are not my own to be deleted so that the thread is easier to read.
At the moment there are halves of conversations and responses to things that are no longer there in between the posts of images.

Everything after the Gold Coast Chargers (page 3) could be deleted too (all my now blank posts).

Thanks, Lemon Boi
