Why don’t they pay me to create a logo? I can do a way better job than that, as I’m sure a 5-year-old probably could. That thing is ugly, and I wouldn’t have seen the “2012″ unless someone told me it was there.

Oooh, that one with all the circles IS nice! And it’s a bit reminiscent of a Tube map, in that sleek, colorful sort of way, as Steve noted above.

The story on this logo just keeps getting more and more weird.

The AP reported Wednesday:

> LONDON (AP) â€” An animated display of
> London’s jigsaw-style 2012 Olympics
> logo, which has drawn an unfavorable
> public response, was removed from an
> official Web site Tuesday following
> concern it could trigger epileptic
> seizures.
>
> Epilepsy Action, a British health
> charity, said 10 people had
> complained about the animation and
> some had suffered seizures from
> watching images depicting a diver
> plunging into a pool.
>
> The Olympic group said it has taken
> steps to remove the animation from
> the Web site and will now re-edit
> the film.
