Team 51: Wings of Fire

[Brandon Martus]

Here is the debut of the new logo for Team 51 "Wings of Fire". This new logo was born out of the heritage of Team 47 - Chief Delphi and Team 65 - Huskie Brigade.

Our new school features the Phoenix as the school mascot. The intent was to capture the great heritage of both teams retaining our image and moving to a new and unified symbol born out of fire - The Phoenix.

I spotted the icon immediately at the top of the portal. Very eye catching. Excellent work on the emblem and good luck this year!

Side note: You've got to name one of your robots Fawkes!

[Rion Atkinson]

=Very nice. Very well laid out too. I like it

I second that. :D

Like...like.... where is it?? AAHH WHERE'S THE LIKE BUTTON?! Oh, wait. ...Right.

It's really cool because it at least resembles a legitimate coat of arms, with the two 'parent' mascots. Very classy.

By the way, is the website going to get changed to purple?

[Akash Rastogi]

That just looks epic. I have no other words to describe it.

[Jamie Kalb]

Way awesome. Love the purple, and the way you fit so much information into such a small area without making it looked crammed.

Excellent work!

[Ryan Simpson]

By the way, is the website going to get changed to purple?

I don't know about the entire site, but take a look at the top left of the page.
The link to the forums now features this logo.

[Rion Atkinson]

If only there was a way to get a "like" button....

[BrendanB]

I really like the logo!

Good luck team 51 and thank you team 47 for creating and maintaining this site!:)

You are two amazing and inspirational teams!:]

[Molten]

By the way, is the website going to get changed to purple?

I hope not. I've grown accustomed to the orange. If they choose to change it though, can we make it an optional change? I know some sites have multiple color schemes. The new logo at the top is already throwing me off a bit.

[NickE]

I'd be more thrown off if the favicon was changed.

[JohnBoucher]

Very cool. Are you changing Chief Delphi's color scheme and favicon?

[Taylor]

Will we now have to wait 51 seconds between posts?

[Chief Pride]

Love the new logo. Martus, I see you made sure your font got in there. :)

[Ken Patton]

Our team was lucky to have the talent and creativity of Ms. Caius Schneider in the design of the new logo. Caius kept us on track during the design and made sure that we followed good screen printing practice, etc. for the blocks of color.

I am not sure how many FRC logos she has designed - I think quite a few - but if you are looking for some experienced artistic input, we would highly recommend her!

PM me if you want her contact info.

It looks awesome, it really unites both teams. Good luck to you guys this season. :)

So will you call that the coat of arms of the Wings of Fire? Also I think the site can stay orange only because it represents the fire. Maybe we can incorporate purple somewhere else.

[Rich Kressly]

I look forward to the day I cr_ _ myself seeing that logo coming toward the glass in front of me :-)

I'd say you guys rose to the occasion.
Beautifully.

I'm not sure where I am now...47? 51? :P

[Enigma's puzzle]

Or if the entire site changed, domain and all, and no one was updated??? A lot of people. A lot of withdrawal.

What would be the point of that? The combined efforts of the 2 teams creating 51 brings even more professionalism and applicable knowledge and experience to the table. With the unswerving support of IFI and other sponsors, Chief Delphi will not falter. It may go through a few color changes and transitions but most people who understand that change happens when change happens - won't be too thrown by 47's present situation and metamorphosis into and as a part of 51.

What we can do as members and supporters is be appreciative and patient with whatever changes occur. For those of us who find change hard to deal with, I'd advise that we take deep breaths, fasten our seat belts, and enjoy the ride. We are in good hands.

Edit: And just so you know, I'm not being all cheery and delighted just because 51 is purple. :)

I like the new logo and team name. I am looking forword to the day when I see the robot that two legendary teams have created. It should be a fun year to watch.

[Mike Martus]

I still like the orange glow of the site.... anticipate very few if any changes..... the site will remain, as always......

Chief Delphi..............

[MishraArtificer]

...Doesn't matter. In the end...

YOU WILL STILL REACH OUT AND ROCK FACE!

P.S.: Can someone send me the old logo for my avatar? That would rock most awesomely!

NOW you're talking. This place is an institution.

[Andrew Schreiber]

NOW you're talking. This place is an institution.

This place is much brighter than most institutions I have seen. It also seems to be lacking straight jackets which I think is a mistake for many of us.

I have to second Rich, I look forward to the evening I wake up from a nightmare of seeing an alliance of N robots with this logo across the field.

[a kenny03]

I look forward to the day I cr_ _ myself seeing that logo coming toward the glass in front of me :-)

yeah. i am really scared to see the robot those 2 teams decide to conjure onto the field. "head for the hills, people!"

oh my god! the british are coming! the british are coming!
i guess i'll just have to hide in a corner when the collosal power of the 2 teams comes after everyone!

but congrats on the team change. hope it works out for all of you:D
cool emblem design. its pimpin!:cool:

[65_Xero_Huskie]

Looks like they are doing well for themselves in OCCRA in the offseason. I Look forward to seeing them in FRC for myself.

[HauNguyen]

Well done but i think violent is a little feminine
