I heard it straight from Reveille:
"Don't make our logo bevel-y."

1)bring back the Block ATM

2)Texas Aggies in the endzones

3)get rid of the maroon pants

4)football cleats should be black

5)why the hell can we get some maroon water coolers?

6)Waffle House is nasty as hell and I don't think "smothered and scattered" should include ashes from the cook's cigarette

7)to have a more intimidating presence in the SEC, the next Reveille needs to be a rottweiler crossed with a great dane

8)bring back lemon chill lid tossing

9)start doing White Out games in September - why the hell you wanna wear dark colors in the stands when it's 98+ outside?

10)football cleats should be black

I like the bevel for the main logo, but not for the helmets.

I also don't think "smothered" should include a single slice of crappy American cheese. I know it's not gourmet dining, but damn, buy some shredded cheddar and cook some onions and peppers. /end of rant and back to hating the beveled

No bevel! Bring back the Block aTm, Texas Aggies, and get rid of the T-star AND ESPECIALLY that retarded interlocked A-M thing (what an abortion of a design).

Geez y'all need help. The newest logo has the "A" and "M" lined up with the T. The beveled T differentiates it from the "A" an "M" so the logo does not read as "ATM"

This is infinitely better than the old logos.

Also the fact that a number of different logos have been posted here confirms the importance of the new singular branding.

I've been told that logo was designed specifically for merchandisers who couldn't afford the primary logo license. Is that correct?

What if the bevel was actually fixed to make sense?

Yes, I know that is quick and dirty. But it gives you the idea.

Quad Dog,

I know it was quick and dirty, but the highlight on the inside left serif should be a mirror image of the highlight on the right serif. If the light is coming directly from the right I'm not sure you need the extra highlight at the bottom that you added.

The other issue is that the T is beveled and the A and M aren't.

I just think they should scrap the bevel idea. Let Texas Tech be the bevel people.

If the light was coming directly from the right then the top of the T wouldn't be white. I also debated adding white to the top left of the bottom cross of the T. Why is that Texas Tech can figure out a bevel, but we can't?
Old Main
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I say let Texas Tech be the masters of the bevel. The aTm logo on our helmet is just fine as our primary logo.

Nobody sees the non-beveled version and says "wtf is ATM?" but add bevels and it's "OHHHH Texas A&M!"

It's a graphic representation and most prefer non-beveled over beveled.

And yes, we need consistant marketing.

Best "ATM" logo we ever had is the one in my signature. It is so much better and pleasing to the eye than the others. The bevel however, makes ALL of the logos look like crap.


Now the thing that I call livin' is just bein' satisfied with knowin' I got no one left to blame

NO. It looks terrible. It's not even done right. Use the Old Army AMC logo.

Keep the A and M lined up with the T, but for goodness sake, get rid of the bevel!

In all seriousness, is there any way we can get this changed back to the non bevel? I'm sure most students/alumni prefer to have the block. Can we get some kind of petition started?
