It annoys me that we're stuck with the 2010 South Africa logo and colour scheme (which only won the poster vote because it was for the "World Cup Board") as it doesn't fit the current board. Chicken seems ok with the idea of changing the colour to the other option or something else we make.

Here was the original that was voted down:



Thoughts? Ideas?

I say just change to a generic football and leave the rest as-is.

good point about all the different leagues and nationalities included on this board. Murica is a good idea, but I can understand not using it.

We could get really generic and go with the official FIFA logo color:






Pretty ugly isn't it...

I love MURCA and have an obsession with the USMNT.

However, this board is clearly an international soccer board. Everything is discussed here, and it's great.

I don't like this shade of green. Change the green and the balls and I'd be happy (prefer the US one still).

True, but there isn't a "Young Mexicans Abroad" thread stickied...

I like the green and yellow color scheme a lot (maybe a darker green would be better), need to change the balls.

But the USMNT theme isn't bad.

It's an American board focused on relevant football around the world. Besides, no porn allowed on TD, much less gay porn.

I have mixed feelings about a USMNT color scheme. I wouldn't hate it, but I don't know if it really fits. Obviously though it's the one thing we all can unify behind when the team plays, and that never happens at any other time.

It would be cool if the green backdrop looked like grass, or has some sort of grassy texture.

The soccer ball needs to be updated. I'm sick and tired of seeing jabulani.

I nominate GeauxColonels to hook us up with some preliminary designs.

Meh, I don't know. I like that the green color scheme is unique to the site.

I like the U.S. scheme. Agree that a change might be nice.

Definitely change the soccer balls and the period. I think we might regret darkening the green.

Well the scheme fits but not for the USMNT. I don't think you scheme around the MNT because they are only really talked about at certain points during the cycle. Now if you want to do red, white, and blue on this board for Liverpool, Real Madrid, and Chelsea....that makes more sense

How is that gay porn? That's Ronaldinho with some chick who got a sideline pass to a Barca practice in the mid-2000s

That image links out to that video of Ronaldinho jerking off in front of a webcam
