Never!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They could have paid some of the people on here less than that who designed eyes and they would have got a far better logo.

No wonder the games are over budget.

It's worse than ugly and I didn't think such a thing existed!

This gives me a great idea for a new thread!

They probably gave some bloke with a big reputation the money to come up with a design and about an hour before it's meant to be done by they asked him if he's done it yet and he just gets on his computer and does it in an hour and laughs all the way to the bank.

An hour more like 20 minutes..... I'm sure it didn't take matt an hour to do it.

LoL.. u tell him off Ash..

The thing is Dan, they paid some company a massive sum to come up with the New Conservative logo and it looked like a crayon drawing from a 5 year old. It's the business to be in apparently.. *cha ching*

If you mean me an hour to do my eye, it only took me 15 minutes to get it perfect :laugh2:

Lance 04-06-2007 10:36 PM

I can't believe they were paid that much to design that.

There are people on here who could do better. For much less.:bored:

This logo represents the fears of most people that money will be thrown down the drain. They could have done a competition and given a very happy winner £20,000.

As if I would do such a thing to my dear friend Daniel... I'm shocked that you could suggest such a thing... :shocked:

Its very late 80's early 90's.

"There have been two London 2012 logos: one for the bidding process and a second as the brand for the Games themselves. The latter, designed by Wolff Ollins, was unveiled on 4 June 2007. This new logo is a stylised representation of the number 2012, with the Olympic Rings embedded within the zero. The logo is available in a number of colours, and for the first time, the same logo is to be used for both the Olympic and Paralympic games.

Early public reaction to the logo, as measured by a poll on the BBC Web site, has been largely negative: more than 83% of the first 16,000 votes gave the logo the lowest possible rating.

The logo has been quickly derided with an online petition for its removal receiving 8000 signatures within 2 hours of it being released, and that on Monday afternoon."
