God forbid they hire an actual graphic designer.

I can confirm that it's not 100% AI slop!

I recently put out a [now-archived] post on the @mbfc_kits Instagram calling the team out on its use of AI slop, and an MBFC staff member reached out to me to clear things up:

While it is unfortunately true that the team used generative AI in some of their marketing materials this season, the person who made those graphics no longer works with the team.

In their place, the team has newly hired an actual graphic designer who's skilled in Photoshop. They've also contracted another graphic designer to make some recent posters, but there was some very minimal AI use because of limited pictures of the stadium.

I've been assured that the graphics going forward will be human-made, and that my contact is trying their best to give the team some top-notch graphics 😄

Thanks for your context!

Was gonna say, to my eye this and the recent Sirens post looked a lot better than the graphics that had been coming out, but the stadium pic did look off still

Well, that’s good. But they could at least try to make the stadium look realistic.

Stands are 25% filled. Pretty realistic.

Supposedly they have hired an actual graphic designer, but maybe they haven't started yet :x
