The ICT Badge had a bit of a makeover a while back and I finally managed to get my hands on a copy of the original file for the newly revamped version.......

Whilst the "Original" is far from perfect, there's something not quite right about the new one, but I just can't place my finger on what it is.

The new eagle is more of a cartoon. The new thistle's color is less natural. The hexagons on the new ball are inconsistant. All in all the new one is a simplification.

Yep, the new one doesn't look as good when compared with the original. Would imagine it is easier to print/add to club gear.

Wish you hadn't shown the comparison!! lol

I think that's right. The new one will be cheaper to reproduce on merchandise etc.

Would anybody like to see the badge redesigned, perhaps the eagle with the thistle in its beak although would you still want the ball, any ideals?

Yeah, our badge is/was very expensive to have reproduced due to the number of colours and the small details meant reducing it in size for things like stitched garments was extremely difficult. So from that point of view it made sense to have it simplified.

I'm of the belief that it should have been reworked totally and their should be some artwork kicking about the stadium for a redesign of the badge that was done a few years back. It went so far as having professional drawings/graphics put together for it but then seemed to fall off the radar. It was a shield shaped badge with a Celtic stylised Eagle on one side and a Celtic stylised Thistle on the other.....looked very smart.

Haha very funny!

Looks like a lot of detail in the Thistle - what about just an eagle and a ball?

Is this the artwork you're referring to CaleyD ?

Looks more like needlework to me and a terrible attempt at that.

Not quite, but I have been looking for a decent sized copy of the Thistle Badge for a while now, so I'm just going to steal that one.....thanks

You're welcome.
