Tagline

Include this tagline in my logo.

Describe who/what this design is about

A generic logo for a company that appeals to all online Fantasy Football codes (so not specific for NFL/Football/Rugby/Soccer etc). I like the idea of it being similar to a team emblem. I am trying to target a happy medium between it featuring strong eye catching colors (thinking red and/or yellow) but also capable of being printed in black and white if need be. Idea is to keep it simple, memorable and timeless in design. Vector based format over pixel as this would be used in multiple sizes.

Stationery design should be a fairly straight forward progression from the original logo incorporating the same color schemes. The design of these we would like to be more professional that would appeal to our potential business with investors or other companies as opposed to the clients directly

Use sporting team emblems for inspiration. I am also open to the idea of it containing a mascot of sorts if it's is done tasteful. Should appeal to 'the boys'

#15, #16 and #17: I like these designs, however I think they could benefit with a few minor adjustments: 1. The font is a bit hard to read.The reflection is also distracting. 2. The fire trail is a quite large, and dominates the logo. 3. I think the extra part included in #17 is unnecessary. I prefer the simpler design of #15 and #16.

#13 - I really like the idea. Hoping you might be able to improve upon the label itself and somehow integrate it as it feels disjointed. Not sure how, but the ribbon integration isn't doing it for me. happy if you'd like to play with the coloring a bit as it doesn't strictly need to be red/yellow (happy for just one of the two). also for future posts would be good if you could provide a black/white copy together with it #14 - appreciate the new approach however looks too feminine for a masculine target audience. #11 - i didn't think it was possible but it's somehow become too much like a fast food logo (my fault for possible pointing you in this direction). perhaps a shield as the backdrop part and/or the incorporation of a trophy or continuation of the star theme? also happy if you'd like to play with the colouring a bit as it doesn't strictly need to be red/yellow (happy for just one of the two)

#10 certainly front running but not fully convinced. Don't mean to be an ass about it but would like to see some more inspiration if you have it as I can't put my finger on what is missing. Maybe a glamour aspect

Attention Designers!! MycroBurst permits you to submit unlimited designs with unlimited variations. However, if you are providing 2 or 3 different color versions of the same logo in one draft, please make sure that if the particular draft gets finalized, each color version should be separated before you will send the final files. Thanks, MB/LDG/LS Team

#5 this is the line i am looking for and you are the front runner. one issue is it's missing the '.com' out of the '.com.au'. as another improvement, I'd bring the tips bit to the size of the Fantasy (is FANTASYTIPS, not just FANTASY). i also liked to curved effect on the other, just not the orientation for other entrants, this is the benchmark and would say still not 100% satisfied at this stage so game on.

#2 I like the glamour side of it and the addition of the star, but would am target an emblem to give members a ‘club’ like association. the slanted perspective is a bit offputting. Hoping to make the yellow feature more as its eyecatching. hoping it wouldn't be too much to change to fantasytips.com.au also.

#1 I appreciate the post however it looks a too dark. It also feels like something I could whip up myself. Also contains an NFL player which goes against the generic theme we are looking to achieve.
