Lisa Simpson and the London Olympics 2012 Logo

Ladies and Gentleman, after months in development and squillions of pounds in design work, I present to you the new London Olympics 2012 logo.

London Olympics 2012 logo

Mmmmmh! My first thoughts are that it looks like a logo designed for young people by old people who don’t understand young people.

Others however have likened the image to cartoon character, Lisa Simpson, giving London a blow job. Oh dear. I’m sorry. But, it does look like that. And who, even the cleanest minded among us, is going to think anything else now?

  • I freakin’ hate this logo – it’s just crap. It looks like an end of the week last minute piece of shite. It’s going to make the rest of the world go, ‘Yep, that’s the UK – no creative thought whatsoever’.

    I’m angry about it.

    Very angry.

    I’m one of the few who actually like the Candidate City logo. They should have left well alone.

  • This is ridiculous. Not only is the logo utter pants but some of the animated sequences from the logo presentation have been triggering epileptic seizures in some people.

    Epilepsy fears over 2012 footage

    A segment of animated footage promoting the 2012 Olympics has been removed from the organisers’ website after fears it could trigger epileptic seizures.
    Prof Graham Harding, who developed the test used to measure photo-sensitivity levels in TV material, said it should not be broadcast again.

    Charity Epilepsy Action said it had received calls from people who had suffered fits after seeing it.

    Organiser London 2012 said it will re-edit the film.

    The new logo for the event, which is a jagged emblem based on the date 2012, was unveiled on Monday.

  • The epilepsy thing makes me laugh(not because it causes Epilepsy but) because how freakin’ stupid do you have to be to not realsie that jiggling, flashing bright colours are going to mess with some people’s heads?!

    Dumbasses.

    I’m calm, really,

  • I h8 it a baby could of made a better design. All the money they’ve poured into this and they come up with a finger painting done by a grown man with 2 days experience of graffiti art. Even young vandals know this is just a big pile of crap. I mean i saw some of the alternate logos i was baffled that they chose this one. I think they are trying to tap into young peoples lifes. I’m only 12 and when adaults try to do this i just think DON’T we just want to be left alone so why didn’t they get something that people will be comfortable with i mean Matt Greoning could of drawn that!

  • Matt would probably have come up with something better.

  • This is what happens when you give £500,000 to a bunch of no talented coke heads
