Palace's New Badge

[John Bumlick]

i actually quite like it. still think my design is better though...

 

[essbee]

It's a bit more symmetric than the old one.......an improvement I think.

 

[Waynflete]

A grammatical error within the first five words. Stay classy Palace.

Not bad. Better than the last one.

But the mistake they have made is trying to pile too much in. Football, Crystal Palace and an eagle. They are hardly the only offender.

I was looking at badges the other day and my personal favourite in terms of design is Forest.

This was the original design favoured by the palace board.

It should either be "Crystal Palace Football Club is delighted" or "Crystal Palace are delighted", no?

 

[Waynflete]

It should either be "Crystal Palace Football Club is delighted" or "Crystal Palace are delighted", no?

Yeah, I reckon it's okay these days to use plural for the generic name of the team, but not when referring specifically to 'Crystal Palace Football Club'. Should be 'is'. Or alternatively: 'Nigel, Nigel and Nigel are delighted...'

Way to over-hype, Steve.

You've stolen my design... I'm sure that was my entry, was a while ago!

 

[HastingsSeagull]

To be fair is better than their old one! #stillshocking #cringe #plastic #franchise #notenough

Well your design was very nearly chosen as the official badge.
And You'll be proud to learn I found your design on google images.

Looks like flames coming of the old Crystal Palace!

Whatever else you may think, graphic design is one area where Steve Parish definitely has relevant experience - as I discovered when I met him a few years back in a former life, slaving over a hot Mac for a repro house in Clerkenwell. He seemed back then like Britain's least likely billionaire...

 

[Justice]

Makes me feel sick just like the old one did

 

[GingerBeerMan]

I prefer it, but that's because their old one is pretty dated. If they changed the 'wavey' writing on the new one (looks shit) to just plain writing, I think it'd be better overall.

 

[Del Fenner]

Unfortunately, I don't actually think it's terrible. Not much different from the old one mind, does seem a bit pointless.

Have a look at the crest for the Altonwood Golf Group, and see if you can spot the problem.

It's exactly the same.

 

[Del Fenner]

It's exactly the same.

Correct. Guess who owns the copyright for both?

 

[Leighgull]

I've always thought the eagle on the current crest looks a bit...well..spazzy with its wings on all wrong.

The new one just looks comedic so jobs a good un.

 

[Kent Seagull]

The eagle looks like it's just about to nosedive, that's a shame!
