When I saw this logo, I wasn't sure if it was a joke or not! :eek: It's absolutely awful, in my opinion! What do you all think?

Oh God that is atrocious!!! Whoever the designer was should be shot along with the committee that approved it. :eek:
...well...it is ...unique.... :eek:
Dreadful and some of the promo film has had to be scrapped because it has caused epileptic fits
Doesn't every country go through this? I remember all the upset when Atlanta games showed theirs, too.
Wow --- pretty umm... yeah. I never understood why they dont open up a logo or mascot design contst to the public, and pick the best one. Mind you, its not much worse/better than these mascots...

OMG !!!! Even I can draw better :eek: :D
heh -- its more that i dont know what to make of the Bejing ones -- i think they're cute too, in that particular animated style, but they look kind of, i dunno -- not quite sinister, but theres something a little odd... I think its the eyes maybeQuote:

The Bejing panda is cute, but otherwise I've never been impressed with any of the olympic logos.
I can kind of see the numbers 2012 (sort of)
Vibrant: yes.
Energy: yes, but it's not positive energy.
Youthful? No - childish!
Fun? No. More like *bad* graffiti.
Exactly - not youthful but childish in a bad way - like it was created by someone who only had access to dull scissors, no creativity, and not much for motor skills - otherwise he/she would have done a better job. Since when is hot pink associated with either sports or with London? I don't get it. And surely there was a search process - that's the scary part!
Well described Karen. And while it doesn't cause me epileptic fits...it does give me a certain physical reaction..... :eek:
