Thoughts on new AFC Logo

[Eragon]

It's defiantely a clean professional logo, but to me it doesn't scream falconry. I don't know if that was the point or not, but for a falconry org it would make sense. Now that I see the different colors and sizes I think it will look great. The pictures before didn't quite show it to me at least.

Something in this shape would look great as a patch (but I've always been partial to the sheild shape). It's just a MS Paint of the first hand drawn logo under the picture of the flying peregrine:

A logo is very important and should be of a timeless design. I've always liked NAFA's logo. It is effective and tells a story. The Eagle Austringers (IEAA) logo the same. (www.austringer.org). The International Association for Falconry & the Conservation of Birds of Prey have an effective logo. It is not 'fancy' but gets the point across. www.i-a-f.org. Another is the International Hunter Safety Association (www.ihea.org) Again, it tells a story.

I hate NAFA's logo! It smells of the uppity ups that have been in that organization for years! If you don't fly a longwing, you aren't a falconer! So tired of hearing crap like that and it is an embarrassment that a national organization promotes that attitude with its logo. Just my little humble opinion.

And you all can remove my post above where I mutilated the logo, I was just poking fun at the new logo, didn't mean to start off a war on words. Damn, one can't even have a little fun anymore. I will slide back off into the woods to watch my coops nest and patiently wait for the eggs to hatch!

Growing up in the 70's, I used to listen to Poco, a great little country rock band. They had an album out called Legend, with an album cover that I've always liked. Here is a picture of the album cover.

I always thought some type of falconry logo in this style of artwork would be nice.

I'm not a big fan of the new AFC logo, but if it has to do, it will do. Don't know if I'd buy and wear a baseball cap or shirt with the logo on it though. I've got a ton of hats. I have my favorites.

well I would tell ya what I thought but for some reason I cant see it

well it's simple and a little catchy I think with the words under it, it gives it's point. It could be more detailed, but for a small logo on a car or badge it's fine, any more complex and it will be too jumbled and would be hard to print in small sizes.

I guess that means i like it. I like the shirt too. and the jacket. And a hat would be cool.

The logo should have been red white and blue............
