Playoff Avatars

[HarrisonFord]

Here's three examples I'm testing out. I figure it's better if we use an existing photo for the first part and then whatever photoshop (mugshot or whatever criminal photo) for the second part.

Any ideas on how to make them better are welcome. They're a little boring right now. Maybe a better font? Different colors?

EDIT: stylized it a little, angled parts of them:

As possibly the hfboards co-Lead defence attorney of the Drew Doughty for Norris case on the main boards, can I please use that or a similar Doughty one?

 

[Choralone]

Quick: Knocking helmet off
Being a Jedi
Kings: Bribery of Officals
Doughty: Guilty of playing defense
Kopitar: Not Canadian
Carter: Team Canda before Giroux

Just some ideas

Quick: Felonious doffing

 

[KingsKnight]

Can you guys think of a better way to word it? It's kind of boring as is.

What about:
1. "Terrible Captain" (without saying "Charge")
2. "We the HF Boards Jury find the defendant..."
3. GUILTY
4. (people v la kings)
5. (logo)

 

[Choralone]

1. Maybe "Crime" instead of "Charge"?
2. Maybe combine "HF Verdict" and "Guilty" on to one slide/animation, like "HF Verdict: Guilty."
3. "Sentence: Playoffs" with the NHL logo currently on slide 5.
4. (People vs LA Kings as is)

I like that. It simplifies things. I tried 2 versions, one the same style as above and one different:

 

[KingsKnight]

Tried the same earlier test ones but all in the "legal pad" style. What do you guys think? I'll have to make the text more legible:

Here's a compiled list of text, some are adjusted from older ideas:

There has to be one around the Kings and pixie dust too. That was one of the dumbest things I've ever read on this site.

 

[Papa Mocha 15]

Quick: Stealing a paycheck through system defense.

 

[Choralone]

There's a similarly dumb bit about horseshoes, too.

Quick: Possession of Pixie Dust / Under the Influence of Pixie Dust

Kings: Lewd Behavior...with Your Mom! (ok, I know that one won't fly...)

 

[KingsKnight]

Are you guys cool with the legal pad design? If so I can start making these.

Kopitar - Not Canadian

please, make this one, it will go viral here in Slovenia once the playoffs start.

that slogan, it's almost a mantra here, and it's been for ages:

kopi + Not Canadian = no respect, no recognition, nothing to talk about.

i understand it's stereotypes close to something ugly on both ends, but that's how public here absorbed kopi's success story

i bet he would sign it as well

gkg!

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Yeah Kopitar "not Canadian" is absolutely gold no matter where you are.

Dibs on the Vinny "faking own death!"

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Lewis = murdering goalie crests
Scuderi = corporate spy
L. Schenn = wearing weighted skates
Pearson = bionic leg or something

 

[Little Psycho]

I like that. It simplifies things. I tried 2 versions, one the same style as above and one different:

If we are taking a vote, I like the first version better.

 

[Little Psycho]

L. Schenn- Not Brayden
Nick Shore- Lewis Part II

 

[DocWest]

Lewis - Giving Blue Goals

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

If we are taking a vote, I like the first version better.

Oooh didn't see that, I agree. Looks sleeker and more like our Kings theme. I dig the idea of the second one but the paper is a little distracting imo.

L. Schenn- Not Brayden
Nick Shore- Lewis Part II

ha. Nick Shore, Impersonating Trevor Lewis
Andy Andreoff, Impersonating NHL Player
Hell, that one could go for L. Schenn too or Impersonating/Bodysnatching Matt Greene

 

[Martyros]

there should be a combination of

Kopitar- defense makes him look good
Doughty- Kopitar and Quick make him look good
Quick-Kopitar and Doughty make him look good
Scuderi-Holds the defense together

but it would be way to long

 

[Martyros]

Can I have

Kings- no stanley cup pedigree

(I swear, someone said that when comparing them to the Hawks)

 

[Little Psycho]

there should be a combination of

Kopitar- defense makes him look good
Doughty- Kopitar and Quick make him look good
Quick-Kopitar and Doughty make him look good
Scuderi-Holds the defense together

but it would be way to long

LOL that would be great, but yah, I think it would be too long.

 

[ninjastache]

I also vote for The black > legal pad.
and Dibs on - Toffoli underage drinking (from the cup)

 

[Docgonzo]

You could also do a twist on the Kopitar one by saying "Kopitar: No gold medals"

 

[TwzKing]

If it's not spoken for, I'll take the kings killing hockey.

 

[KingsKnight]

Alright we'll go with the black background one. I need to rework it a little. It's a bit cobbled together right now from past ideas. And I think we need the Kings logo somewhere noticeable in there. I'll try and get a cleaned up version and show you guys before I start making a bunch.

That's amazing
