Am I seeing things? Is that a Panther watermark on the body of the jersey, or is it just the way the light is reflecting?

Am I only one the likes purple in the storm jerseys, it's the only thing I like about the club that they use purple. I hope the purple is a bit darker on the actual jerseys, it's a bit light in the above pix.. Disappointed the gold has gone, gave the jersey some pop.

How many 'home' jerseys would an average team sell a year and how many 'special' jerseys (charity shield / pink cancer) would a team sell?

I actually don't like the GAZF storm jersey. Like most people I'm a huge fan, can't put my finger on what I don't like but it just doesn't feel right for some reason. Just a personal feeling
Strangely enough i'm feeling a little bit the same way.. gazf's designs is what had me following this forum for ages before finally joining in the discussion, and while the storm one is better than the stuff they have trotted out it doesn't quite hit me as well as most of his other designs...

i wish i had the photoshop skills to blend the things i like about these 2 jerseys together

melbourne%20storm%20heritage%20jersey%202012.jpg

i like the way the heritage white v starts in a traditional style, i jsut think the v should be jagged like the bolts in the ME bank one. or if the mebank one had 'cartoon' style bolts that are fat at the top to go all the way up over the shoulders like a normal v does... and i was always a fan of the gold trimming.. hell i didn't entirely hate their gold jersey... but i think even less people like the all gold look than the all bright purple...

Gazf, i think i figured out what throws me off your design, if those white bolts were thicker at the top with one or two evenly spaced jags coming down to their current finishing point then i think it is a hit. not sold on the bronze-ish colour in amongst it, i think i'd prefer gold in it's place (definately on the collar, maybe not so on the body)

just imho, still wish i could design anything like yours...

No you're not. I like the purple too.

And anybody with even the most basic knowledge of aesthetics knows that the perfect matching colour for purple is yellow, as it sits directly opposite it on the colour wheel. Melbourne should not be removing the yellow/gold from their jersey.

I'm not sure where you're seeing bronze. The colours are purple/navy/silver/white. You might have a yellow colour shift on your monitor making the silver look bronze. I'll give the jagged bolt some thought, maybe further towards the top.

I take complimentary colours with a grain of salt. Souths colours are complimentary but are generally considered bad colours to put together. I pretty much go with what looks good, which is totally subjective. I also like purple/yellow together, just not with navy.

Hells yes on the gold away jersey!

It's funny, people say this about the Storm, and were saying it for years about the Broncos, and then when they finally did it, everyone bagged them. I actually like the Broncos away strip (the only one I think) but I think using gold as the base for a Storm jersey would end in tears

Amen to that! I was thinking the same thing. Everyone is complaining about the Broncos yellow away jersey but requesting the Storm implement one. It's not like the Broncos had never had a yellow jersey before. I love it. Much better than a white and navy alternate that has nothing to do with Broncos historical colours.

^^yep, agree also. Don't mind admitting that I hate the Broncos away jersey and I would think the same if the Storm went that way too.^^

I like the idea for the yellow Broncos jersey, it's just the shade of yellow they have used is too bright. If they used the yellow/gold they used on their orginal jersey they're look good.

Before even considering the shade of yellow, the Broncos should have just paired the design with maroon shorts. They probably didn't because it would ruin the side panel effect, another reason to not have side panels I guess.
