Re: pic: 1875's new name and Logo

I looked on FIRST's website and couldn't find 1889's old information but if I remember correctly there official name was just HAZE. There color was purple and it was obvious what they were going for but the official name was just HAZE. So as far as Florida goes there isn't another Purple Haze.

Either way back on topic, Nathan showed us this logo the other day and I think its top notch looks pretty sweet if you ask me. I think you should consider your mascot to be puff the magic dragon or whatever that purple dinosaurs name was, that would be awesome. Because purple is totally sweet, but mostly because I aspire to be a dinosaur when I grow up.

Re: pic: 1875's new name and Logo

i love the name and the design... just two questions, what was your name before, and why did you decide to change it?

Before it was "Autoneumato Autonomatons" See.. even I can't spell it correctly. We decided to change it for better PR and better recognition. It was really hard to do this with the old name and it was hard when dealing with corporations.

As a former mentor of 418, I know that it can be a fine line to walk and it makes it a little challenging for marketing. The way the team obtained the name is a good story but that's about all that it is, a good story.

It is also a little hard to work into a theme/logo. HAZE developed a logo, I believe, designed by Jaine Perotti. LASA Robotics uses their name now for marketing and branding, but the nickname stays with them. I remember one parent thinking that she would wear a wide-brimmed black hat covered (read - billowing) in purple netting while sitting in the stands at the competitions. Don't believe I ever saw it become a reality.

I'm going to have to agree with this... it stands out to me as not really fitting in, and detracts attention from the rest of the logo.

Aside from that, it looks really nice. Good luck with the new team name and logo!

Re: pic: 1875's new name and Logo

Cool Graphic! We also tried to come up with a differant name. I think would of been easier to change the earth's rotation. We even found a site just for creating team names. Even that didn't help much.

Good Luck!!

Thanks for the comment. I was waiting for someone to bring this up. I am sure that people can dwell on the negative aspect of this name, however everything we do is about 'a commitment to excellence' and this was the name the students, administration and team came up with. We hired a professional logo designer to work on our logo to make sure that we come across professional in everything we do. Thank you for the comment
