London 2012 - Design Your Own!

Design your own 2012 logo and win fame and glory. Sure, the tagline’s not quite as good as the London 2012 promotional video, which literally has the power to knock you out, but all the same, provided you spell London with a capital ‘l’, you’re ahead of the witty designers who decided four livid pink clipart shapes and a tacky lowercase ‘london’ would make a nice London 2012 Olympic games brand… Seriously - $800,000 could have been far better spent. Offering $100,000 even and having a public ‘open competition’ would no doubt have attracted tens of thousands of entries, and although I’ve not got $100k on me, I do have a whole load of karma, linkback space, traffic and good looks I can send your way though.
Heh…
Let the games begin! Submit your own London 2012 logo (whether your own brand new design or a mock-up of the original) and watch the laughter ensue. We’re in for a good night ahead…

Send your enteries into us via the contact form, or post links in the comments! Even if you have NO design skills and want to delve into the thing they call ‘Microsoft Paint’, I’ll put money on somethig better than the $800,000 monstrosity that caused this post.
For the record - Swearing isn’t tolerated on TechZi. Neither are flourescent pink logos though. Credit goes to Clive for the ‘re-vamped ooops logo’ seen as the title. Seriously though - we don’t do swearing. The blogosphere is angry…

You don’t do swearing despite having ’shizzle’ in big, pink, embossed, bold letters?
Hmm…
Doesn’t bother me!

It should be interesting to see the entries for this one. Kind of hard to make something worse than that monstrosity haha.

I think one of the best Olympic logos I’ve seen is for the 2010 games in Vancouver. It’s clean, uses the Games’ colors, and ties into local history and geography.
