London Olympics Logo

[Brawny]

Wow......I thought only Americans were mesmerised (uhhh....needs a z) by flashing colors.

Does anyone mind finding a youtube vid? WARNING: if you are sensitive, don't watch it. It is causing seizures in the UK, and thus, why I brought it up.

 

[BrandonMcAuslan]

It looks retarded anyway...

The BBC ran a competition to design a better one and within 1 hour someone submitted their entry...... I'll let you guess which is which

 

[Riviet]

I actually quite like the design of the first one, with the 3 hoops forming the ond in london. Don't like the colour pink used in the official logo.

 

[Frogger]

Who the hell would design that pink thing!?

Heres a article about the issue: http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2-2007260155,00.html

Apparently 27,000 signed to scrap it :lol:

LAWL...that final logo is nothing.

On the commercial, there's a full 30 seconds of swirling psychedelic colors...blinking.

A vid would be helpful for full effect

 

[Happy]

Can't find any vids of it, and the official website has removed it but the pic is from the ad.

Quite post-modern. I don't really like the official one, as it's too...

...ye. I just don't like it. For a start, it doesn't provide enough initial information, just blocks of colour. It's only after staring at it like a magic eye picture, that you even see the 2012. Heres some past logos for you to look at:

.

Those are all plain, simple, recognisable and informative. The official London one is not. Besides, I feel the UK olympic commitee is getting ahead of itself. There's still another olympic event before it even comes close...

The next olympic is in 2008 heres the logo for it

Again, it's very simple, very different to this crappy 2012 one =/

 

[King Wiired]

This one is actually quality.

 

[Brawny]

maybe SOTW should be London Olympics.....

 

[Haz]

It cost £400,000 for that flashing piece of crap!! I hope someone gets their P45!

I like the BBC Competition once, scrap the slogan and it has my vote.

 

[bonodo]

that logo is *!@$%!, i hate it, it makes me dizzy

 

[Wii_Smurf]

Lol, I think they'll change it after what has happened, They still have 5 years to sort it
