How do you make a fucking traffic director look like a badass that should be feared? Maybe the logo will be a dude writing a parking ticket with an angry face. I knew the name change was inevitable and I didn't really care, but this name sucks IMO. Oh well, I'll still be rooting for the Traffic Directors.

Wrong thread.

Fun exercise - everyone go through and read the venting thread, and guess why/because of whom both are now locked.

Too bad the personal attacks can't be replaced with some humor on the situation. Be a lot more fun and maybe even make your day better.

Fine with this. Not sure why, but for a split second after watching the reveal video I thought our new name was the Backyardigans. “Yard” sounds like “Guard”?
Anyway, I’m obviously off today. Onward!

Into the thick of it!

The typography is very good too. Best possible outcome if we were to keep the colors/look the same.

Really? I’m sure a lot of middle school and high school kids could have made something better.
I hate all of it. If I HAD to pick one, it would be the C that reminds me of the logo from the show the Biggest Loser. Which now that I type it, that’s ironic.
 
Guardians Dawg Pound ?

Get a logo/shirt with Cerberus Guardian of the Underworld on it.

I love it. It reminds me a lot of the 1970s fonts.

Personally? I don't think they could. A 17-year-old designed Chief Wahoo though, so maybe?

One can argue practicality vs. symbolism and which is more valuable in the logo design.

But I think the typography does a good job of blending the gothic style of the statues with our current marks. It looks nice on the uniforms too.

I really like the Guardians name. It's been my leader from the get-go, and I've always loved the Guardians of Traffic (used to just call them the Bridge Guardians) ever since I was little.

I think the current stylings are obviously to keep the team's look as close to the current look as possible. I'm excited to see what it looks like ten years from now. I'm picturing more blue/grey and ditching the red. As someone else mentioned, actually incorporating sandstone would be awesome.

I have to imagine Slider remains, but I think they add a second mascot, sort of like Moondog and Sir CC.
 
Guys check this out. Save the new block C logo. Edit it: Rotate and flip it. It becomes a "G" for Guardians...... For some reason I can't put the image in my post...
