I saw it on TV last night- my goodness.

I can't imagine old Seb getting the message - he has the inherent arrogance of all politicians - and none of them, of any political persuasion or nationality, ever have the good grace to admit they might have got something wrong - I guess it goes with the territory. The most disgraceful thing is the cost £400,000 - they could've run a competition through all the design/art colleges and opened it up to all our young budding graphic designers giving the winner a real leg up at much less cost. Shambles really - just hope the rest of the thing isn't going to be like the Wembley stadium - bet Paris are laughing their socks off at us :o(

I have to agree with you there -- that logo is terrible. There are 89 others on the website that are better than that one.

The Olympic committee in Vancouver picked a stupid logo for the 2010 games here as well. They chose an Inukshuk, which has NOTHING to do with Vancouver and looks like the Jett Puffed marshmallow man in colour.
