The Fish 9340 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 I was thinking "Rasta giving head", but I'd cede ground to the Simpson Daughter angle, if for no other reason than to satiate pubescent desire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6374 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 as a base idea, i like the way the olympic rings were encorporated into the word London on this design - shame they couldn't have worked from that - it's simple, but effective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's even better. Is it not too late to change it due to public demand? I don't mind the one they've chosen but its not a patch on the 2012don one.

DanTheMan 0 Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 Although I like that logo a lot, would it have been not been equally disliked as the real one if it was released as the real one. '£40,000 for some handwriting' etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'£40,000 for some handwriting' etc. So instead we're paying £400K for the off-cuts of a kids' paper cutting exercise??? It's simple but effective - encorporates the host city and year in one hit. Sometimes the best art is the most simple art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanTheMan 0 Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 I do like that logo as well, but I'm saying different logos seem to be treated differently when they're the 'official' one. I would have just re-incorporated the candidate city logo, thought thatw as my very stylish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes the best art is the most simple art. I think combining 2012 and London like that is ingenious. It could do with a bit of work on the surrounds to make it more inspiring, but they should base a new logo on this, rather than that hideous piece of crap they have presently. Incidentally, I heard you can get 10-1 on the logo being replaced within a year. Worth a punt, surely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanTheMan 0 Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 Was scribbling down ideas for a logo today! I think the Union Jack can be quite easily adapted to form a running man with him arms up going through a tape. Difficult to describe on here just imagine a \/ ----- /\ with a head and a blue background (could be the sky) with the relevant white bits. £400,000 please.
