Any replacement logo should be in the form of a wall plaque if this skin is to be kept.

EDIT: Hypothetically, of course.

I heard that Lukesams3 has spent 4 minutes on designing a new logo...

Yes, well the logo fitted with that 'vibrant' skin.

But we've since moved on, and it seems out of place in the living room. Time for a rebrand.

Yes but it's changed colour. It's now a deep, classy red rather than bright pink.

As far as I am concerned, that is now our logo. We've had it for 5 years, considerably longer than any of the previous Metropol logos and I see no reason to ditch it. The fact it was originally inspired by the 2012 branding is IMO irrelevant and I feel it's became a logo in its own right.

However as I'm nice I'll put a poll up with Fox News style leading answers. And then ignore it.

Am I allowed to say that it was originally something of a jokey pastiche of the newly revealed 2012 logo, and that we had no intention of keeping it long-term (even though I said we would)?

Well that's how it was. HA HA HA HA.

COMPETITION TIME

The least shit logo will be considered briefly and then dismissed, unless it's AMAZING. In this case, it will be stolen.

So that's where BBC Two got their inspiration from!
