Add Custom Team

Hello DumbMatter, I felt a little inspired by the Albuquerque Thunderbirds and decided to make my own team.

Hailing from the 49th state, I'd like to announce the Anchorage Glaciers.

Main Logo

Secondary Logo

Note: I suck at graphic design I made it a PNG and then had to use a different software to convert it to an SVG, thus the look.

Thanks! I like the logo and the colors. And it is natural that Alaska should have a team, since Hawaii got one.

Where did you get the design from? Like did you draw it yourself, or find it somewhere online? If online, where? Cause in that case I need to make sure the license allows me to use it.

Also about the PNG/SVG issue... what you have now aren't really SVG files. Well technically they are, but they contain an embedded PNG image. That's why they still look a little blurry, and also why the file size is larger than the other logos.

It is possible there is some tool that would convert this to a "real" SVG (containing the actual lines/shapes in the image, rather than just encoded PNG data), since it does look like it has a lot of sharp edges and smooth lines. But I'm not an expert on that kind of stuff.

You also might want to reach out to the guy who did the Albuquerque and Oakland logos on Discord, since he had the same issue originally. His Discord username is BigBlue642#4640

I used a Fiverr logo maker, then I opened my photo editor to try and remake it. In a nutshell, I got the original design from Fiverr, then I remade it myself and made some changes. Then I had it made into an SVG. I'm not sure where this falls onto in a licensing standpoint.

I'll do some research and try to figure it out.

Alright, I think I found someone who can help me redo the logo to make it legally safe, give me a day or 2.

Alright logos have been updated for SVG format

Thanks to Saraorigin for helping me out New Main:

New Secondary

I got permission to use it as long as they are "for charitable and non-commercial activities".

General git tip - don't work on master when you're preparing a PR on someone else's repo. Because then your master and their master will grow out of sync. Instead, work on a separate branch.

Not a big deal this time, but in the future you should do it.

I'm going to merge and make a couple little tweaks :)

• I removed the extra whitespace around the primary logo. In Inkscape, you can do this by pressing ctrl+a to select all, and then go to Edit > Resize Page to Selection
• I removed the border around the secondary logo, I think it looks a little better this way
• I ran svgo on both of the SVGs to decrease the size a little (although the primary one wound up slightly larger somehow, idk)
• I decreased the population from 0.5 to 0.4

Thanks again for your help! It'll be in the next release.

Sweet, thanks!
