HFJets Bandwagon Avatars

flyingkiwi · Mar 24, 2016

As a way to get used to using GIMP I started combining other teams logos with the Jets one because I thought they might make good avatars one day. Since quite a few of us are getting behind other teams these playoffs I figure I'll post a few I've made and then make a few more for anyone to use.

They're pretty basic, but it's been fun messing around with colours. All are 150x150px but can be resized of course. Feel free to request other teams too.

Anyone else making avatars feel free to post here. I'm sure we can get a nice collection going.

San Jose Sharks

Chicago Blackhawks

Florida Panthers

Washington Capitals

Minnesota Wild

Coming Soon
Ducks??? Pens???

Coming Soon
Ducks, Capitals etc

Awesome! I'm very excited for the Spacey edition Panthers avatar. That's my bandwagon for the Eastern conference.

Nice!

Will be sporting a Caps or Panthers one soon.

Nice work flyingkiwi. GIMP aint no photoshop, but for many tasks a perfectly serviceable image editor. Plus, if you're a fan of Pulp Fiction, you get to say "Bring out the gimp!" every time you use it.

Sign me up for a Spacey!

LOVE the concept. Do you mind if I make my own of your concept later on when I get home? Some of the lines in the circles are a bit jagged and I might be able to make them a bit cleaner in Photoshop later. I could probably make some animation frames in there too. Got an idea to put picture players on the inside too.

Hell, I would have done these in paint if it had transparency.

Go for gold man! Anyone can do anything they want with them. Can't wait to see your take on them.

Can't wait to see both of your own concepts

I have much higher standards from you guys too. :p

flyingkiwi · Mar 24, 2016

Oh yeah and if anyone has a particular player/face/symbol they'd like inside just let me know. The more practice I can get cutting things out smoothly the better.

sully1410 · Mar 24, 2016

Torn between Panthers and Blackhawks...

jetsforever · Mar 24, 2016

Nice work

The Jets logo is perfect for this sort of thing

Panthawks or Blanthers? Or just go full on awesome with Black Panthers.

Florida Panthers Space Edition

Have an idea for a Spacey too.

Won't have the time or motivation to do anything this year. You're doing fine enough

Amazing

flyingkiwi · Mar 24, 2016

More Spacey. When I get home I'll try to overlay this with the space picture.

Really like the 'Sharks' one that is just the Jets logo with San Jose colors.

JC Numminen · Mar 24, 2016

Think you could make one for the Wheat Kings?

Thinking yellow for the outside, black for the inside, with this logo in the circle:

Thanks for working on these! Will be grabbing a Caps or a Panthers ones if the Wk's are out early.

irunthepeg · Mar 24, 2016

Here's what my concept is. I don't plan on doing all GIFs but I was able to clean up the circles a bit. I forget if GIMP can open PSDs but if it does, I can upload that for you or I can save all my layers separately for you just so you can have a cleaner cut on the outside lines. Or just keep doing you, they still look great.

If nothing else, I can help you fill some requests!

Took a crack at it.

DudeWhereIsMakar · Mar 24, 2016

The Capitals bandwagon avatar should say in it 'Ovi's better.'

For the Ducks, 'the past is the past.' (Playoffs 2015)

thegr8one66 · Mar 24, 2016

Go Pens Go!

That looks great!

Idk how fussed I am on the lines, I mean they're pretty small. But by all means upload what you've got and I'll see if I can work with it.

Or with Jaromir Jagr's face?

Just made the background transparent.

Hawks

I tried to incorporate more of the colours of their logo.

Caps

Later on I'll attempt some involving stars.

Wild
Not confirmed a playoff team and idk how many of us are bandwagoners, but I made these months ago.
