But on the brighter side- it's so bad that a whole bunch of people are discussing about it. And any publicity is good publicity! And, I didn't realize till earlier today that the logo also depicts the whole world map(sans Australia!) Well, its bad.

Ironic, given that it's also the logo for the paralympics. Not only is it crap but it’s not accessible in a number of different ways to disabled users.

Looks very primitive and clunky, like rocks. The pink & yellow colors are childish and garish. I agree with Lisa, it does not reflect the Olympic spirit nor athleticism at all.

I smell the new Millennium Dome! I actually like the logo, I mean nothing else could quite sum up what a mess the whole 2012 thing is becoming. I smell the new Millennium Dome!

It seems as though the new logo designer has talent (see Sony Ericsson logo), but really, where the hell did that pink preschool "thing" come from? I really hope the committee will *please* reconsider another design...and I'm not even British. The old logo was merely OK, but at the very least aesthetically pleasing.
