Well its obvious it wasn't a pro who designed it
It's way to Busy to be a logo, let alone one that people will Identify
with....

To be perfectly honest, I couldn't understand that it said 2012 until that was pointed out to me.

Suggestions: Simplify the font for the number a bit, and put the number all on one line.

Me either.. I thought it said Zoo YZ!. Its pretty awful.

Worse still, it's all jusy vague numbers!

There's some very expensive morphing to go into that between now and then... And at £600000 a time?!

It looks like crap!




This is the Clark County Nevada official seal...it was chosen in a 2nd grade

school contest and was the winning enterant. It was done by a young child,

and looks much better than the crap which has just come out of London. That

London thing looks like Elton Johns shreded underwear. Even in San Francisco

they'd say that that London Olympics logo looks "too gay."

so, what everyone is saying is that 600,000 pounds (how much is that in dollars?) has been spent on this logo, it's terrible (which I do agree isn't very good), so you're petitioning that they spend more to get a good one?

sorry, if I missed this, but are other logos being presented for alternatives?

Nah, I don't have any opinions either.

Well, it's a logo?


It is? Maybe, but is it a decent one?


Decent? What do you mean?

I am sooo indifferent about this.



Sorry. I was using the word decent in its meaning of good.

Izzy (Atlanta 1996) was truly embarassing - it should not have been a trend setter.

Here is one alternative that the BBC showed on their website and on live TV. Oops.

Ok everybody

LISTEN UP!

I am sufficiently incensed by this matter that I have raised an official petition to the British Prime Minister, Tony Blair, at No. 10 Downing Street in London.

Confirmation of this is as follows.


Please click on the link below to confirm that you wish the
Number 10 website to display the petition at the bottom of this
email in your name.


Your petition reads:

We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Replace the
proposed 2012 Olympic logo.

The London 2012 Organizing Committee has released the design
for the new Olympic logo for the 2012 Olympic Games.

It is universally disliked, it is seen as very amateurish, and
it is believed that it will bring the games and Britain into
disrepute.

We ask that it be replaced with a logo that is more
appropriate.

Yours Faithfully,

The British Public

Thank you for submitting your petition.

Well done Chris. I've signed the other one view the results. Let's take it to No. 10 before he leaves the mess of this logo to Gordon Brown.

I don't like it! "Mishmash", "Hodge-podge", "Fractured Fairy Tales" comes to mind.

Bah! Is that the best they can do?
