Easy answers: Because they're cheaper to make, hold their shape longer, less likely to shrink and can also be printed in different designs via sublimation printing.

Does anyone have each AFL team's sponsor logos in an AI file? If so, are you able to send them through to me?

I don't know if they're filed but Mero's Footy Jumpers website has all clubs' sponsors under each club.

I asked mero a while ago to no reply, and thought i'd just check the rest of the community as well

I did miss the original message, so my apologies for that.
I am unable (unwilling) to send them because, as vector art, they have the potential to contribute to the main area of concern to the AFL Licensing Dept.
That of merchandise made outside of the AFL license.
Initially the AFL had a pretty good handle on what they could control.
They sent a threatening letter and most people who wanted to make their own Heritage merch would back down.
These days it's an industry of it's own.
It is entirely possible, even probable, that the request is in good faith, however, if not, the aforementioned threatening letter comes to me.
So please feel free to trace what I have. The sponsor images are reasonably high res.
But I am not comfortable emailing everything.

All good, I understand the situation and I guess it’s good from the AFL to make sure logos that they have are not shared out to random people, but only to people who work with them.

Where's the best/cheapest place to get NBA jerseys online? I don't really care about the authenticity of the jerseys either. It was jackjersey once apon a time but that site is long gone I think.

Anyone have a good sized (1000px wide) version of the original freo anchor? (shown below) I'm currently working on a project to give back to everyone and just need to get a good size of the anchor.

It's a very simple shape, i would imagine you could trace it easily in illustrator/photoshop

Is there anyone that might be able to vectorise a logo for me? I used to be able to do it but now I don't have access to AI anymore.

I could probably help.
Send the original image in a DM and I'll see what I can do

Thanks Scorch! I followed this tut for my Perth team and I am very happy with how it turned out. Mine still needs a bit of fine tuning I think but it will do for a start! This is the first time I have drawn an animal logo from scratch and Im pretty chuffed with how it turned out even if it did take me about 4 hours!Initially, look at a stack of bird head logos.
If you just google image search "Eagles logo" and "hawks logo" and start to have a look at the way they're typically laid out and the composition of them. You're not copying these logos, but you are looking for a bit of a style you like and how they execute certain parts of the logo like the beak, the eyes, how they display feathers etc.
Then i'd do what Andonis said in his response is to find a photo or illustration of a bird that is at roughly the right angle, and then do a rough sketch in photoshop over the top of that bird. And then a rough sketch over that rough sketch, trying to simplify it, make it bold with thick lines so it works better as a logo.
Here is a bird logo I did for one of the old Logo of the week comps, and my final rough sketch that I ended up drawing from. There were probably 2-3 sketches before that one where I refined it and cut out a lot of the excess stuff that I didn't need.
This is probably a better example of what i'm talking about, but it's not a bird. I found a snapping turtle at the angle I wanted and drew from there. This will cycle through a couple of sketch iterations and then the final product. I've left the sort of moodboard guide images that on the side of my image and i'd regularly look at them to see how they do things, without actually copying them, if that makes sense

Sorry to double post but here is my process for my logo creation for those that need a bit of inspo

Many moons ago I used to use Photobucket to do simple recolours of the guernseys in Mero's Footy Jumpers for my own amusement. Now it’s hard enough getting access to the bucket, let alone recolouring anything.
Is there a free image hosting site (or the like), with an easy-to-use recolouring tool that anyone can recommend?

If this is your aim I'd siggest some sort of program that has a fill bucket with an adjustable tolerance, as opposed to paint which just lets you fill the exact colour and no regard for shades changing when you hit an outline. My pick would be paint.net (Paint.NET - Free Software for Digital Photo Editing) but GIMP could work, as would Photoshop if you have access to that. These are programs rather than websites though so up to you if that works for you.

Anyone know a good way/places to keep an eye out for leaked indigenous guernseys for 2022? (I know Smooth Criminal you had a couple links posted throughout the pre-season, but not sure if something similar applies here too). Thanks in advance!

I will try my club store scraping thing in a couple weeks, don't expect them to be on servers yet considering reveals won't be for another 3 weeks probably.

Had a question on the old Adelaide Sharks jersey. What was the white jagged line representing?
Was supposed to be a stylised version of the South Australian coastline from memory.
