Pure genius, RK

Plus, is it me, or does the current 2012 logo simply remind you of a poorly designed shirt graphic from the early 90's?

Always a bad sign when you have to explain to people what you're new expensive logo actually is.

Bunch of overpaid ******s.

It reminds me of what I used to draw when bored in class. I wish I'd known I could have got some mug with a grant to give me 400k for it.

I can't believe someone got an MS Paint allusion to Goatse onto national TV. Somebody, somewhere deserves an award.

Seconded. So good.

Oh and the "london" with the rings one is brilliant and should be the logo.

I liked the one based on the Undeground maps.

But getting an allusion to Goatse on national TV is just sheer class!

It was one of several submissions from the b3ta community. Another one of theirs was shown on BBC news too, which has a slightly subtler innuendo.

How did they show those 2 logos on tv, blatent visual sexual inuendo!

There are some real good ones on the bbc site, i like numbers 1,5,6,7,9 and 10. They all show something 'London' in one way or another and look cool.

Great use of £400k!

That one actually looks decent in the lloyds tsb colours (lloyds TSB being a sponsor). It would be ok if they used those colours for it instead of the neon.

in all honesty it reminds me of Newsround in the early 90's



there's a new lot of user submitted logos on the BBC site



That one is clever, they should use it.
