Do we have any? are they in any way enforced?
I think we entered the era of the logo meta game. I am old, and grumpy, and would just like to say:
'Down with this sort of thing'
During the majors we often get to see the teams that people spend most of their time on prettifying. We see a lot of logo use, and some of them I do not like.
I don't like:
Any logo covering the whole of your side of the pitch, it prevents me reading the pitch state as a tell for the weather (i know, having to move my eyeballs to specific icon isn't that huge a pain, but it is a little rude)
Any logo coming over my side of pitch. This is just rude beyond belief.
Any logo that makes seeing the players harder.
I would suggest a mandatory 3 board square margin around any logo, on your side of the pitch. This would leave plenty of logo room, but look less ugly. |

I dislike the mandatory margin idea. There are some real nice full pitch logos out there, like some of the SWL teams use, e.g. https://www.fumbbl.com/p/team?op=view&team_id=657117
I'd be behind a limit to stop them encroaching on to the other half of the pitch though. |

I am all for logo rules, have been for some time. I hate the ones that bleed over and the big black boxes that make the pitch look like crap. I would like to see a maximum size of about 300x250, or there about.
In addition though, it would be great to have a league/tournament option to set a different pitch base. For example, you could have a cool sand/desert theme for all Crown of Sand games, with the CoS logo and mid-pitch. This would be great for leagues too. |

In fairness PC, I frequently use team logos and work hard on bios - but never have logos turned on in the client. I could be breaking all of these suggested rules without even realising, and I suspect quite a few other people will be in the same boat with me. I work hard to make things look pretty on the team page and don't really care about the client. |

I'm of the opinion that it just doesn't matter. if I don't like them I just turn them off in the client options. Simples

Or.....you could just turn off your opponents logo if it offends you so.....this seems like a common sense solution all round to me.
Many coaches don't know how to resize/crop images, I would speculate that this is the reason for many oversized images. Not everyone is a Qaz/Foulscumm level pic genius. |

Why to enforce rules when choice is available? And simple.

I submit that Pchest just didn't know he could turn off his opponent's logo, and still look at his. Simple explaination. Otherwise this thread would make no sense what-so-ever. (that one word? It is now) |

For me it's all about spectating. When i join a game to spectate i really dont want to have to then change multiple options i may want different for other games, or my own games.
I think its rude, also i am lazy. |

Just two (2) clicks away.

yes. of course.
And i can choose not to look at people picking their noses and eating it in public. Doesn't mean it's OK that they are doing that. |

If we talk about logos, first let them appear in blackbox. |

Beyond that I am mostly ok with things. But don't invade my space!
If you could stick to keeping the ball on your half as well that would be great too! |
