It's been coming under a lot of fire recently. Just about everyone hates it... it looks like a Kindergarten kid's drawing. It is UGLY. To top that off the promotional video was causing epileptic seizures in people, lol. This logo costed £400,000 to design.

I've found the reason why they decided to use this god-awful logo. The "2012" numbers spell Zion. I'm not Jew-bashing or anything, there are great Jews like Ben out there that have nothing to do with Zionism, but you also have a small faction of people that hijacked the Jewish religion and use it to further their own ends. These people are Zionists, they want a one-world government, to ethnically cleanse all Palestinians, a police state, and mass depopulation.

Yeah, they showed it off before releasing and I believe I heard it reported that during the testing, the commercial resulted in epileptic seizures in some of the testers.

Whats with paying ridiculous amount of money to design shit. You remember how Tech dropped a lot of money on their 3-D logo (I can't remember how much, but a lot)...

Instead of spending a ridiculous amount on hiring someone to come up with the logo, isn't a better idea is to have a contest where users submit designs and then pay off the 1st place with like 5% you would give hiring a professional design? There are plenty of normal people who can create high quality stuff.

Is it just me or am I taking crazy pills?
