That God-awful ST50 logo...

[Vger23]

This goes firmly in the "don't give a $#!t" and "why do we give a rat's @$$" buckets.

Stick that logo on all the merchandise I already own and market it as limited edition so I can buy it all again already!

I'll be in line right behind you!

Why couldn't they just shrink the goddamn font to accommodate the legibility of the text? No need for moving lines around. Nice work with the Picard meme, Locutus Of Bored, full disclosure: I Lol'd.

Because the "50" is the same size as the rest of the letters. Making it smaller would look odd, making the emblem too much larger would look unbalanced, so they decided to fatten the Trek symbol just a touch. I don't think it works against it.

The logo is awful on many levels. That said, I'm with not caring, certainly not caring enough to try to fix it. It isn't my logo!

 

[SpocksOddSocks]

I don't see this as huge deal, but I agree it is ugly.

Looks like the 50 is in the Phantom Zone of 1978 "the movie."

 

[MANT!]

couldn't be worse than the 20th logo..

My impressions are these:

1. The "50" looks like the word "SO." If the 5 were smaller and more like a 5 instead of like an S it wouldn't be so jarring.

2. The way the 50 is squished in there reminds me of either some kind of sports logo or some kinds of logos I've seen at gas stations.

Hahaha, massive lol

 

[WillsBabe]

It looks like something someone knocked up in their tea break. Dreadful.

Just when you thought a fandom couldn't find anything more unimportant to complain about......

 

[Amaris]

I never underestimate how nitpicky a fandom can get.

 

[CorporalCaptain]

We reach....

 

[MarsWeeps]

The artist distorted the left edge of the Starfleet arrowhead out a bit (literally, just like half a millimeter) in the middle in order to better accommodate the 5 in fifty.

So why not just use smaller font instead of changing the arrowhead?

In any case, it's just too plain and boring.

I suppose it could be worse. It could be 050...

This confirms what I've known for decades-

Star Trek fans will bitch and moan about anything. ANYTHING.

This confirms what I've known for decades-

Star Trek fans will bitch and moan about anything. ANYTHING.

Especially about other fans who bitch and moan.

 

[JTShanks]

My only complaint with this is the logo itself, it's mostly bland and boring, nothing too over the top or anything, not even eye catching and just feels..... Rushed.

I almost feel like Making a new Logo.

Thanks, now I can't unsee it saying STAR TREK SO

Lol
