Edged Out

This is the logo for the 2012 London Olympics. It took a year to come up with and cost a bundle. Now it's controversial because so many find it ugly. I sure do.


One of the guys who chose it said it's good people are up in arms--the design is meant to be "edgy." Really? Looks to me like something left over from the 80s.

Plus the animated version gives people seizures. That must be beyond eighties' technologies.

Actually, underground films in the 60s and Japanimation in the 90s gave people seizures, too. Not to mention Mary Hart's voice.

From the article you linked to:

Tony Blair raised hopes that the symbol would leave people "inspired to make a positive change in their life".

It sure has done that for me. My cholesterol is down, my motivation is up, and I think I just might write that screenplay I have been thinking about! Thanks, Tony!
