Do you at least believe me now?

I think it's best been described as Lisa Simpson giving a BJ, where the diamond thing is her arm(s) and the tail of the first two is the Harvard-sized endowment.

Hmmm, I'm not enjdsnfjsdfjdsfjhsijfnbjksdanhfjsaf


sorry. i got bored with what i was saying.

No matter how bad the London 2012 logo may seem, nothing made my jaw drop as much as this load of utter shite...



I'd be embarrassed to put that piece of cack on a poster for a school sports day.

Why?

It says the name of the country and year (clearly)
It uses the national colours (oddly they are rightly proud of them)
It has someone graphically kicking a ball (handy for a football tournament)

Did I miss something in what a logo is supposed to mean, or do you work for DOCOG?

Obviously thought up by a 3 year old.

Just like the Tory logo

They've mentioned the "mistake" on the editors blog: http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/theeditors/2 ... ctics.html

Edit: LOL! Just heard the headlines on N24, the "flashing logo has been removed from the official website due to concerns that it may cause fits for sufferers of epilepsy." The whole thing is beyond a joke now.

Any company or organisation that willingly pays some designers (and obviously not very good ones) £400,000 for this ridiculous and universally hated logo and branding, then they deserve to be a laughing stock.

How on earth dirty, smelly, crowded and expensive London won the Olympic games I really don't know.

£50 says that the Olympics in London will be just like the farce that was Wembley stadium.

Late?
