London 2012 Logo

[TinTin]

Sign of things to come

'We are not changing it, despite any adverse reaction' (or words to that effect by the morons who designed and/or commissioned it). Excuse me, who is paying for it? Surely not Ken or anyone else running this shower. My prediction: Expect Wembley Fiasco x 1000 = unfinished stadium, way-off budgets, Council tax for any London borough to reach £ 200 p/m for a 1-bed flat. etc. Ken was at least honest in saying that he couldn't care less about the sports, all he cared was the re-generation of East London (and its votes)

"A segment of animated footage promoting the 2012 Olympic Games has been removed from the organisers' website after fears it could trigger epileptic fits."

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

Olympics is bollocks

It's a man throwing a stick, plus some other stuff like synchronized swimming, BMX and trampoline. And for the bargain price of £9.4bn.

The Tiswas-blow job logo should stay.

I have seen better logos created by Blue Peter viewers! What a load of tulipe!

Hasn't the logo been removed from TV because of photosensitivity issues now?

Yes, and no, the video of the logo has been withdrawn as it really has caused some epileptics to have fits on viewing it!

Apparently it is now known as the "Lisa Simpson bj graphic":

Not 100% safe for work

'We are not changing it, despite any adverse reaction'

Of course they will change it. Its marketing genius if you ask me. Thousands of coulmn inches and free publicity generated and lots of people talking about the olympics all of a sudden. Its 2012 for gods sake, its ages away. Im sure they have something else in mind for further down the line. This has just been a great way of getting 2012 into the papers / onto the tv.

Those thick rimmed glasses marketing types dont get paid squllions for nowt. Well, no more so than us lot anyway....

Some of the alternatives submitted by Sky News readers are actually excellent IMO.

I like them all, except number 3, but that's a joke. And they're free!
