ThunderPower_14 Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 The scalability doesn't bother me. The badge on the website is a vector, zoom in and it gets clearer. I think every other badge in the premier league does the same effectively, they'll pixelated in certain areas at a very small size. What I was reminded of while looking at all the premier league badges at small sizes is that a yellow lion on a sky blue background lacks contrast and looks washed out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarryOnVilla Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 (edited) my rough and ready solution to the scalability issue and a desired version for some Edited June 1 by CarryOnVilla 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allani Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 1 hour ago, CarryOnVilla said: Tbf, I can’t see why there’s isn’t scalable versions. at that size, drop the double line for 1 smaller, drop the “Aston Villa” and reposition the lion smaller than that, just have the lion or shield alone. I suspect that might be one of the evolutions that occur. First off make sure that everyone is familiar with the main version and then once that's done have a closer look at specific issues (large and small scale) and adjust as required. I wonder, if they had done what you suggest to start with, how many people might have said "ah look we've already got four different versions of the "badge". I think it would have been neater to do what you suggest but can see why we might evolve there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_sun_never_sets Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 I like the detailed version. The simple version looks like something I created on ClipArt for a school project in Year 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want examples the exact same pixelated edges issue as we have, then yes there’s not any I found until the C Teams Yet, most badges have scaling issues, some unique to them and some of the same as other badges. My solution to our problem is to either drop the outside line at that size or increase it’s gap so there’s room for more pixels That’s cool. I was just pointing out you were confusing two different things. Which you’ve agreed you were Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is also a great example of why the round badge doesn't work because there's no obvious scale 5, even at 3 or 4 I think you'd be struggling to replicate what you've done above. And finally the above is a great example of how you can you different colours, etc and yet every version still looks "Villa". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Steve Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 The new badge is pixelated on the official app too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarryOnVilla Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 (edited) without zooming in and pixel peeping, it still looks gritty at the top. But we are really looking at that, particularly now. still, a dropped line would clean that up.. * no, increasing its size by 10% Edited June 1 by CarryOnVilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The logo/web asset isn't designed for zooming in on a phone web browser and I'm not sure why anyone would want to (and I don't think you actually can) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_AA_786 Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 Not trying to be @rsey but why do we care? It is what it is now and on each page our focus will be on the content, so not sure in 3 months that we'll be looking at the badge being pixilated or not. The squad, ST, FFP, stadium rebuild etc. are all more pressing concerns 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderPower_14 Posted June 1 Share Posted June 1 (edited) The badge image on the website is a vector image, an SVG. How at looks at each size is dependent on the browser/device you're viewing it on and it's ability to render vectors in various sizes. Edit: If you open the image in a new tab and then zoom in, you can basically get it at any size: Edited June 1 by ThunderPower_14 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
