Design a London Olympics logo

[Matt]

After this monstrosity was unveiled as the official London 2012 Olympics logo, I am setting all you TiBBsters a challenge: design a better logo!

Post your ideas in this thread and we'll vote for the best!

Discussion at how rubbish the logo is here: http://www.thisisbigbrother.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=60997

[~Kizwiz~]

^even my two year old daughter could design a better logo than that^

[Matt]

Apparently the designer was paid £600,000 to do it!

It's even got the rings...... LOL

[Dan_]

Bravo, better than the original which looks like a mashed up Lisa Simpson head.

[lily.]

I had to check the web for the order of the rings and then I couldnt figure out how to get them where I wanted them in paint.. but, still, you can't deny the genius.. :wink:

[~Kizwiz~]

L....I cant stop laughing.... I might even pay homage to you by using it as my avatar :laugh:

dam right :P

[Michael]

the real olympics logo looks rubbish

[J.C.]

I really like the logo with the Dome. If the Dome itself hadn't been such a let down I would have said your logo was ideal.:thumbs:

[lily.]

Well, maybe the olympics will be a let down, in which case the dome-logo would be perfect for the job.

[Matt]

All looking brilliant - I'll allow everyone two entries each :)

[Cody™]

the actual logo is really really stupid because they didnt include the colours of the rings. the reason why those colours are there is because each country who takes part in the competition has atleast one of those colours in their national flag. its about nations coming together. theyve just ruined that entire idea with that logo. and whats with the wierd shapes and the dreadful shade of pink? honestly, its not very nice.

Couldn't agree more. Its worse than the BB8 eye on first glance - and that's saying something.

[Matt]

Its a horrible logo and I'm ashamed that that monstrosity is what will represent the product of billions of pounds and millions of manhours.

[Michael]

[Matt]

I'm working on a second one now :thumbs:

[Matt]

...which is attached to this post!

The curves are in Olympic colours: The coloured curvers are meant to depict an athlete and the black one is meant to depict that big curvy thing over Wembley Stadium (one of the Olympic stadiums :)

[Cody™]
