    I don't care who gets offended, but the quality of craftsmanship is not an opinion.

    Hi guys, as they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder... what looks good to one person, looks like crap to the other. You can't please everyone, but I like the new logo... I would have liked it a little simpler, I'm a 13 year senior graphic artist that believes in the "less is more" school of design. But like I said, you cant please everyone completely. I am in like with the new logo, but in LOVE with the new uni's; They are no longer bedazzlingly shiny and the new matte colors will make our guys look tough once more, like the Csonka days baby!

    Miami Dolphins New Logo/Uniform Thread: Uniform Leak

    None of those got it right the first time. Apples first logo was terrible. They got a great idea the 2nd logo and stick with it

    Change or no change to uniform means nothing to winning. But its in my opinion our old uniforms look old. The teams you listed, don't. The old faded orange and aqua, big ugly stripes, grey aborted looking dolphins, horrendous socks......it doesnt fit. imo. someone tainted your prune juice this morning, clean.

    based on the update of miamidolphins.com, I think we have a preview of our new stripe pattern. Why would they make the site look like this if black was coming in the color scheme?

    I'd be willing to bet that there is no black stripe. Just dark blue.

    I'm still holding out some hope that even the blue was dropped. I'd love to see just aqua and orange. Still, I like the new logo and unis more and more all the time. I'm excited about Dolphins football for the first time in a long time.

    Miami Dolphins New Logo/Uniform Thread: Uniform Leak

    Me too! I like aqua and orange w/o the blue. If its blue It won't be to bad because Atleast it's not black. I am hoping since the pic is a couple weeks old that Miami made last min changes. Highly doubtful but you never know. Maybe they prepared for the leak and put a old version up, we will see tonight. Not getting y hopes up

    Yep. I'm hoping for what you did in a mock up that made its way around the internet. When I saw the simplicity of that helmet with just the wide aqua stripe and a tiny orange trim... WOW!!!

    Devon Bess will be rocking the new uniform tonight w the other players. It would suck if they trade him on Friday.

    maybe we can get more value for him base on him being there tonight. We'll see!!!

    Hey JT is there anyway you could do a couple mocks today of a possible third uniform? Would love to see how the aqua and orange would look on a black uni. No black in the logo or the color scheme, but man aqua and orange would explode on a black background. Also a Navy/Dark Blue and an Orange. The last two are the most likely I would think.

    Thanks in advance

    The following comes from the Sun Sentinel. So from reading the excerpt below it sounds like either there is no third color in the trim OR that the third color is somewhere between aqua and blue. Here is the whole story. http://articles.sun-sentinel.com/20..._1_dolphins-ceo-mike-dee-logo-football-helmet

    The new look is notable for its vivid simplicity. The standard home uniform is all white (aqua numbers with orange trim). The alternate jersey is aqua (white numbers, orange trim) paired with the white pants, which have a thick aqua stripe down the side with orange trim.
    The new logo graces each side of the helmet and the shoulders of the jersey. The helmet, including facemask, is white with a thick aqua stripe from front to back.
    Orange has been minimized. Navy, a part of the color scheme since 1997, has been excised.
    The essence of the new look is evident as Dee gazes from the 25th floor of a Brickell Avenue hotel. It is there in the palette of Biscayne Bay.
    "South Florida water has a two-tone color," he said. "It's the lighter aqua, which we've got, and a sort of aquamarine where the water fades from aqua to blue — a blue that is unique to the tropical water pattern. It's not Navy."

    but you can obviously see the blue/black/blue outline there. I don't get what they are trying to say.
    That i figured. Blue is obviously lighter

    Tannehill and Wake, with Marino as the best man and Grisie as the maid of honor. Jason Taylor will be the ordained minster. We will find out who the bride is based on who wears the White uni

    Sure is gonna be funny when nobody buys this crap. And by nobody I mean the majority of fans. That'll teach you bastards to mess with the Dolphin's iconic pose.

    personally I think its going to be the opposite. You will see tons of people want to get the new merchandise. We will see, but I don't think Miami is going to be hurting sales wise

    Have you seen the polls? The approval rate for the new logo is remarkably high...yeah, the opposition is quite loud and boisterous on the team's FB page, but they don't represent the majority...

    Friendly advice.......before your next proclamation about what people will and won't do based on your own hatred of the new logo, try wearing a sock made of cotton candy. That way when your foot is in your mouth at least it will be delicious.

    As much as I hate the logo and I'm not spending any money on the new stuff, I would NEVER tell anyone or rip anyone who wants to spend their money on it. If people want to buy it, then good for them, no issues.

    I despised the new logo when I first saw it. It made me sick to think that was it. The more I see it, the more I like it. It's very simple and streamlined. It does appear that there are 2 versions of the logo that have a very slight difference. The version on most of the merchandise has the dolphin's head turned up more and the dolphin on the helmet appears to have the head lowered more. The same can be said for the tail. On the merchandise it appears flipped up slightly while on the helmet it is straighter. I prefer the one that is on the helmet.
