I’m hitting that point where i’m planning a new button design for the team-
I’d like to know how many teams base their design on the year’s game, and if your team makes a new design every year or reuses the same one. Thoughts/Comments?
Every year we make new designs based on the new game. our team theme and our robot name.
I have designed two new pin designs for LolX-Cat. I have designed eight pin designs for our team theme X.X.I.Am. and I am in negotiations with the artist who designed our the robot cat that is in my sig to design a variation on the character as an Assassin’s Creed type character (since that’s what the kids voted for as our robot name XXoo Autonomous I think it was for the robot logo and pin) I just have to wait til next Friday when I get paid to pay him for his troubles($40 for lines. I’ll color it in and make the logo).
We also have classic pins that are quite popular that we reuse year to year like our collection of slogan pins (“WoW! I could have been an X-Cat!” Nobody doesn’t like the X-Cats" The few, the proud the X-Cats!" Maybe she’s born with it. Maybe it’s the X-Cats" ect.) our very famous FIRST symptoms pin designed by Ken Wittlef back in 2002 and of course, our team logo. Pins are about the only giveaway we do nowadays. People always want them and they’re fairly inexpensive.
The first one you linked to had me laughing for a good ten minutes…after 20 minutes of figuring it out. haha:D
MOE has standard designs that are used every year, plus ones that are specific to the present year. If you have the resouces and time, and people to work on them, go for it.
This is the new button and logo design for our 2012 robot.
Yes our robot is named Exxio Auditonimous.
We make new designs every year. This year’s are spectacular. Some are game specific, some are team specific. All have cool colors.
No “Diaper Dandy”? No “Prime Time”? No “Throw it down big man”?
If ever a year to bring in famous broadcasting catchphrases this is the year…
Exploding Bacon has the same basic pin every year, but we add something to it to make it year or game specific
