Surprise me
Big fan of the face punchers, they don't get enough respect around the league.
Long enough title?
Given the excellent advice from many fantasy gurus on this site, I have done fairly well in a few leagues over the course of the last 4 years. In that respect, I would like to give back to the community the best way I can… graphic design. Since it is the offseason, I have some free time on my hands, and would like to give 3 lucky Dobber members a chance to have a legit design for their respective fantasy team. Why not beat your competition and look good doing it right?
A few ground rules:
I will make a random draw of 3 teams from the first 10 teams that post the full information of their team in the posts. If I don’t get 10 posts by Wednesday, I will draw from the amount listed.
Please copy and complete the info below and repost, if you would like to be entered.
------
Team Name:
Fantasy Website: (yahoo,espn,fantrax etc. dimensions if you know them)
Primary Colour: (enter your colour, or type “Surprise Me” if you want me to wing it)
Any Other info: (Any backstory to your team? How did you choose this name? Any extra info that I could use to make this branding suit you?)
-------
I will create a main logo, home jersey, and away jersey (similar to the examples below) in the given size dimensions for whatever fantasy site you use. (yahoo,espn,fantrax etc)
Since it is free, and I do consider my time valuable, no changes to the original design will be done. Hope you like it, if not….well I hope you appreciated the effort.

If this thread gets a lot of attention, I will try and draw another 3 teams for August. Hope to see some creative names come out.
Enjoy the offseason!

Consider Sim Hockey because guys who play shutdown minutes, deflect shots and clear creases build championships. Yet in fantasy they litter the unwanted UFA lists.

Really, just want something simple like the oldschool diagonal-PITTSBURGH road jerseys from the 90s, but with the "mounD" text instead. That's my favorite jersey ever.
THANKS.

League Name: Vancouver's Beast
Fantasy Website: http://hockey.fantasysports.yahoo.com/hockey/1945
Primary Colour: Surprise me
Any Other info: I'm the commissioner of my league, so I'm actually entering this to have you make us a League logo. The league used to be called Vancouver's Best Hockey Pool back when it was an annual one year league, but last year we changed it to a limited keeper league, and changed the name to Vancouver's Beast - like the hockey pool was entering 'beast mode' or something. I actually had an idea for a logo, which was a big V (the point at the bottom would be a beast's nose) with a sideways B across it that looks like rayban sunglasses. I suck at graphic design though so my attempt to realize this idea was a failure. If I win, do not feel you have to go with that concept, it's just an idea! Thanks for doing this!
10 team pts-only keeper league - keep 10 plus 10 from past/present farm. No bench: entire active roster counts. Goalies: 2 pts/win + 3/shutout. 82 adds / year. NHL playoffs count for separate prize.

Any Other info: the league name is "Frozen Pond Keeper League" we usually refer to it as FPKL (it would be cool to have that acronym tucked in there somewhere).
Awesome idea

Non-exciting story - in year 2 of a now 11 year league, i inherited the worst team in the league. He was a fan of the Wild. 3 championships. Known for finding loopholes in the rules, requiring re-writing of rules (which im now in charge of ).
