Gone Fishin'
Inspired by the discussion on this thread, I've decided that we should have a thread dedicated to Logo's.We've got Flag Threads, Map Threads, Political Party threads, so why not a general Logo thread? Political, Corporate, Personal and the like, if you have an Alternative Logo, you can post it here.

I'm not quite sure what you mean.

Atari PlayStation instead of Sony PlayStation. I prefer using real world pictures and lots of them, so I accept the obvious implausibility of names staying the same in order to better illustrate my timeline.

But I realized just how much Sony didn't brand their own logo for the PSX, so in retrospect I can skate by lol.

However there are some fun alternate logos, some of which if modified could include the Atari swoop as part of the design.

I'll see what I can do. Im thinking the swoop with the PS colors.
 
In a Mozarabic-speaking Valencia, Canal Nove (ATL version of Canal Nou) formally began its regular broadcasts on the 9th of October 1985, the region's most important day. For four years, this logo was known by every Valencian, young and old.

Majority parties in three major nations in my WWIII series.

Revolutionary Truth Front: The initial movement that led the rebels during the Second American Civil War, the RTF was for several years the only party in the People's Assembly, President Weslan ruling unopposed, rallying the people under a call of unity lest the 'Unionites' attempt to reclaim the West. The small Opposition was formed by Independents, but has since formed the growing Populist Rite, which has yet to ever get a majority in any of the three houses, although they have had several VPs under their banner, as their vote cinches the election for RTF candidates since the rise of the Neo Labour Party which acts as a threat to both, having claimed a majority in the House of the Populace.

Dixiecrat Party: Previously, the Revolutionary Truth Front (Dixieland) led the the Second Dixie Republic. Over the years, however, their pandering to the main party in the CAR, despite the Republic's lean towards Mexico, led to the RTF(D) losing its majority to the Dixiecrats, which has a far more nationalist tint of Dixie Exceptionalism than the RTF(D), which has since rebranded as the Southron Truth Party.

Loyalist Party: Forged from the ashes of the Republican and Democratic Parties, the Loyalist Party was originally the Loyalist Coalition, a group of extremely pro-war politicians who came out looking to be patriots after the majority of Congress was forced to sue for peace with the rebels. They have had a total majority in both houses for nearly four decades since.

United German People's Party: The VDV was formed as a coalition between conservative parties in Germany, Austria, and Luxembourg when the German Union had yet turned into a federation, acting as the main party in the Vereinigungstag before becoming the majority party of the federation proper. They have been accused of being Neo-Fascist following the Third World War with their recent program of "Solidarität" which has involved the creation of secret police, restriction of freedom of speech, and a curfew in all of the Union and Union-occupied regions.

United Russia: Pretty much the same as the United Russia OTL. Just loyal to Vozhd Putin rather than President Putin, as well as his daughter after that.

Democratic Prosperity Party: Following the start of the violent phase of the Umbrella Revolution and the subsequent partition of China in the Third World War, the leaders of the protest formed the Democratic Prosperity Party. President Wong Chi-fung used the party to consolidate control over rivals, and after his term ended the party has continued to ensure its own dominance, turning Guangdong effectively into a one-party state. Luckily that party believes in classical liberalism, and as such has maintained the liberties of their citizens, if not the fairest of elections.

Fun facts to know and tell: The Atari Jaguar, the "64-bit" failure which pretty much destroyed Atari, was originally going to be a 32-bit console called the Puma. The Jaguar wasn't technically a 64-bit system; it had two 32-bit CPUs working in tandem, so in theory (have not verified this) they made the Jaguar from two Pumas.

As for PlayStation, Sony originally went to Sega with the PlayStation hardware as they weren't necessarily interested in competing with then-dominant Nintendo and Sega after seeing what happened to the other minor players of early-mid 90s console makers (Atari Jaguar, Philips CD-i, and the 3DO Company). Sega declined, as they had what they thought was the "superior" Saturn well into development (and we all know how that turned out :frown:).

Maybe it might be cool to see logos for those (Atari Puma and Sega PlayStation)?
 
Sega of Japan actually torpedoed Sega of America's attempt to ally with both SGI & Sony (as SoA knew full well the Saturn sucked), but yeah I agree alternate logos for them would be fun.

(Oh and the Puma was a totally different design.)
 
Cross-post from Alternate Political Symbols: the US with a parliamentary system and five parties!

Based on a graphic from The Economist I saw floating around the internet of "What if the US had a parliament". Unfortunately I haven't been able to find an accompanying article or write-up anywhere so I'm not entirely clear on how they reached all these numbers, but here we are. Basically the assumption is that each of the major candidates headed their own party, this isn't really AH so don't ask how things got like this (and I'm aware that Ted Cruz's ideology is totally different from Christian democracy, I'm just using the name).


Each of the party logos is taken from the logo of an already-existing party: from left to right, the Democratic Socialists of America, the PRD of Mexico, the UMP of France, the Christian Democrats of Uruguay, and the Reform Party of the US. I also thought about other things symbols like torches (couldn't decide which one to use or for who so I compromised by using none), the Liberty Bell, more eagles, a more explicitly Christian logo for the Christian Democrats (apparently an upward-pointing arrow is a common symbol for Christian Democrats in Latin America, who knew), and so on.
