The 2012 logo has been unveiled today:
I think it is crap!
Looks like they have gone for some sort of urban graffiti tag style.
And pink!

Heard a bit more about it.
Seems it isn't just going to be pink. The colours will cycle through pink, blue, green and orange.
That makes is OK then.

From the BBC poll :-
'While some with more vivid imaginations suggesting viewed in a certain light, the logo was reminiscent of an unsavoury sex act.'

Now apparently GMTV are reporting the strobing effect has caused serious problems and they have received 100 complaints.
As the promo is for websites too they should have made it WAI compliant.
I have no bones with it myself other than that.

I like it, anything that provokes that many miserable ****ers to write to the dailymail/guardian/times whatever gets my vote. However I would have gone with a rainbow coloured swastika with allah is great written in arabic through the middle of it, and I wouldn't have done it for less than a million.

It's a s**t logo and they spent £400k of taxpayers money on it so I'm entitled to have a go. If you're going to do it, do it properly. It looks like a series of blancmange icebergs: what's it supposed to represent ffs!
O well there's a design and branding agency laughing all the way to the bank.
£400k!
