Here's a first draft of a new logo.
The complaint was that the first logo wasn't
in high enough resolution when blown up, so i
decided to start from scratch.
It's basically the same design, but I used some filters
and made it look a little more detailed and clearer.
If you have any ideas on how to change it, let me know.

I think it looks fantastic. Should there be something like a soccer ball on the logo, or something soccer related? Any thoughts?

It's beautiful though, really.

Really great job man.

Maybe a little black and white soccer ball under the banner.But im not sure I think it might be fine the way it is. Can we get one to see what it would look like?

Really? I like it with the blue ribbon,too much orange might make it look corny.

i think there's a bit too much detail, mainly in the tower with all the stonework, joints, cables, etc. it's such an iconic, instantly-recognizable silhouette, and i think it should be emphasized as such. you can still do some shadows/contrast with the blue versus black, and still retain the same feel. sometimes less is more.

the text on the banner needs to be bigger/bolder/more legible. when the logo is reduced in size, you may not be able to read the motto and established date.

also, is this a vector image? if not, i highly recommend you create is as one. there would be no loss of resolution regardless of the size, your scaling options would be limitless, and i've found many swag manufacturers (t-shirts, stickers, magnets, etc) prefer to use vector images.

I know it's super detailed, but that was kinda the point.
It's in a half tone pattern and is sort of supposed to be really
sharp and contrasting.
I knew it would be wierd for some people, but It's only an idea...
It's not the new offical logo yet.
Secondly, I can't make a vector image because I don't have Adobe Ilustrator.
If someone has a copy of it for preferbably Mac, PC if not...and feels like letting me download it...i could come up with much better crap than I am now. And Dillon's right...if I have a vector based program, these images would be super sharp no matter what the size.

also..i have a soccer ball for it, but it looks odd in the placement
and throws of the balance of the design.
I'm trying to work around it right now.
The new bridge is a different size, so i can't make it
exactly the way I made the old one.

below the ribbon.
It needs to be reworked.
I need a new ribbon,but i can't find anything.
I'd like to do away with a ribbon, but i can't work it out
without one.

I'm just going to post random new ideas for logos, some will
be mods on the old one, some will be completely new ideas.
I decided to try a round badge for the hell of it.
I used 1625 on the left because I couldn't figure out what else to put.
The Two most important dates in New York history.
The founding of the City,
and the founding of the Borough boys:D
anyway... here's what a round logo would look like.

Awesome. Hilarious. If they get named after a drink, why can't we? Maybe our team can be the

The Snapple Lemon Ice Teas
Lemons can be our logo.

Snapple Fact #2 :
There was a strange drunk man at the end of the bar during one of
the Borough Boys first meetings. Can you name the first Borough Boy
to have to sit alone with him for thirty minutes before help arrived?
A: None other than "KingsCountyFC"
