If you hadn't already heard, that utter piece of shit is the "official brand" for the London 2012 Olympics, which I frankly believe is appalling.

My opinions aside, I believe as a creative community we can do much better.

Let's prove it. Come up with your own version of the logo! It can be anything. Must involve "London" and "2012" as a requirement, I'd say. Hopefully, you won't ALL think this is a totally lame idea.

Yeah i had to make the olympic logo myself then i had to pixel=shade the top of the "pickle" to cover up the black ring.
Damnit it's paint for crying out loud.

Dude, we've already won it. This was the re-launch of the brand. The old logo looked tonnes better. I'm gonna come up with my own logo tonight, just so y'all don't think I'm lazy.

I like you Idea Kasperg, but feel that if you are using hierarchy so that LONDON stands out, you should make it more symmetrical (LONDON that is)
but I am not very artistic. I am the kind of guy who always centers the focus of a photograph.

and by the way, are you sure that isn't the paralympics logo? heheh, bad joke.

I placed "London" in the red ring so that It resembled the logo for the underground system. Although that's something they'd never do given the circumstances.
