Love it! Great job on that logo!

No worries, hopefully we get a couple volunteers to put them together... if not maybe we can get some help from elsewhere on the forum. :thumbu:

Eh, noticed the shading on the right side still needs a bit of work, so I'll hafta get back to it. Sadly, it is noticeable after all, hah. Still, thanks!
Could you also give it a background that matches this a bit?

Ek being the Sweidish work for Oak might be worked in vs. the squirrel for them acorns.

I have no clue why squirrels, but hell yes, squirrels!
That's why this works so damn well... because... why would it? :laugh:

Getting my pick out of the way early: This squirrel is supposed to represent Jared Squr- Spurgeon.

He needs a tiny water bottle to open... ;)

I think we can just Squirrelify the name to make it easier.

Example

MNWild logo
Jared "The Captain" Squirgeon

Should probably make a separate post listing squirrelified Wild player names. Bonus points if you can avoid "nut" as long as possible.

Looks pretty damn great!
Maybe move the striping to the center though?

I like it there personally, because it somewhat "balances" out the image. I can do that for ya, though, no problem. Your next request, however, is going to be "Can you move it just a bit lower?"

Some suggestions to expand the vocabulary a little. My brain will short circuit soon if I try to force any more, but it's a start I suppose!

Might be getting too complex with that and going over some people's heads on them (mine included? No idea what your first two suggestions even reference)

I think the "squ+" additions to the names keeps the humor consistent and understandable for everyone.

Maybe I'm wrong though. Thoughts?

Also just looked again...

Maybe shrink the logo a tad to show a bit more background? Might work even better that way...

How about keeping the "squ+" consistent, but also adding a nickname like the one you gave Ek.....Joel " Oak" Squirriksson-Ek. That way it's consistent, but also each player gets something unique. Like.... Jordan "Nutbreaker" Squirreenway.
