Here is a link to a camera frame that you can use for your camera or Facebook profile pics. It is not beveled.

Maybe because the official color of the aTm is white? I dunno if that's true but it would be plausible.

I don't mind having a bevel, but the one we have now is trash and doesn't make geometric sense.

The football team has worn the maroon aTm on white helmets before... I believe that either way is acceptable for the official logo.

YES!! Now this thread means something! OM has chimed in!!

the bevel is like bush....it was good in the 70's

The correct bevel is even worse and I would have thought that was impossible.

I heard the biggest fear was that a fox might eat the bevel.

Then we shouldn't bevel at all.

What if we did raised lettering so the 3d effect was natural and instead of white we used "Bone".

Texags when they first saw the bevel!

To expand on what Rocky was pointing out...

I would buy any of the trapezoidal or triangular examples shown...as long as they are superimposed over a Texas state outline.

1. Our school colors are Maroon and White.

2. If the bevel is incorrect, color change won't correct it.

3. Maybe this will help...

I hate the bevel too. It's not as bad to me when it's a white aTm with a grey bevel. That blends better than with a maroon bevel

I can't believe Bryce prefers van pattens card to mine

Ha! Exactly. Don't get me started on Paul Allen that guy is a total ahole.

Sorry, I was kind of trolling here. I was shooting for mildly amusing not undermining the fabric of our branding. I hate the bevel. The irony is that someone in marketing is looking at that incredibly detailed diagram posted and probably saying we should just leave the bevel and update it to make it look like one of the one from the texags post.

A white "T" with white bevels looks even better than a white "T" with gray bevels...

All kidding aside, obviously the reason that the white "T" with gray bevels looks better than maroon bevels is because the gray looks more like an actual shadow. A white "T" would never cast a maroon shadow unless maybe it was the result of some type of bizarre lighting effect. The gray bevels against white also minimizes the visual impact of all the mistake in the logo.

Geometry is math. The geometry of the beveled logo is incorrect. It is unbelievable to me that a University awarding degrees in engineering, architecture, computer visualization, construction science, and other programs utilizing mathematics would have a logo that is mathematically incorrect... it is embarrassing at best.

We all know it sucks, but why is the logo on the helmet not beveled but the one on the field is ? Why are the numbers beveled but the lettering not ? Also why is the logo on the back of the Jumbotron not beveled. It's these inconsistencies that keep me up at night . Either bevel everything or don't

Talk it to death then lean over and whisper in its ear!!!! The dead horse is DEAD!!!!!

yall are hilarious you know that

there have been several times I wanted to buy an Aggie shirt or hat, but the bevel looked so bad that I just couldn't do it. If it's a grey bevel on white aTm I'm ok with it.

But at the end of the day, the logo with no bevel looks best!

Is there anyone that actually prefers the bevel to no bevel?

it's got to be a very small percentage

I know there are some people that are indifferent to it, but I don't think anyone prefers it.
Maybe I'm wrong?

Have you seen the hat where the A&M is in highly raised letters with the faux beveling. Lovely. The only thing worse would be leopard print A&M. Just kidding, not giving ideas A&M brading folks.

OM, will you post the evolution of a logo post here. I think that's way more damning than the correct bevel argument. Some newer Texagers may not have seen that info yet.

Why is only the T in a 3-dimensional space?
