I started reading Uni Watch Blog recently. Paul Lukas has a regular column on ESPN, but don't let that turn you off. His blog is a mountain of fun sports history and uniform tidbits info.

 

Recently, I took a part in their colorization challenge.

 

I was given an old, yellowed black and white photo. I was instructed on what things were supposed to look like colored, and I set about coloring it with my Photoshop.

 

Here's the original: http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5019/550056...bdb648290_o.jpg

 

Here's the colored version: http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5173/552097...0cdb87118_o.png

 

I'd say that it turned out pretty well. What do you think?

Paul Lukas loves to hate on the Sox' black socks though. He rated it as a Uni in desperate need of a makeover cause of that.

 

Anyway I like him otherwise.

 

Good job on the colorization, but it looks almost painted.

I did another one. It will be up in a few days.

 

I think it will be popular with the Soxtalk crowd. :)

 

If you're my Facebook friend, you've already seen it!

 

I believe ive seen them all, they look good

Check out these unworn prototypes.

 

They were supposed to be worn during the 2006 ring ceremony game.

It looks like to me. I actually kinda like that.

It is a neat concept, though I don't think I would want that as a full-time change. While it good as piping, that would make it the secondary color for marketing purposes, and I can already see those overblown gold hats, shirts, etc.
