Anyone here get the English Independent Newspaper?

Page 15, My logo design for the Olympic Games got printed!

Scans to come, possibly.

[Caael]

I dont, so scan it. I haven't seen the logo, but if i'm going on what i've seen from your other work, i'm gonna be impressed.

[Aquamarine]

Wow, good going, Wifle! Can you scan it please?

[TheEnglishman]

I want to see it as well. I've seen a few others so maybe one of them is yours.

[Wiflewood]

Well basically the original article was about the big fiasco on how the current London Olymic logo is a pile of **** and it invited readers of the paper to design a better one and send it in, which is what I did.

Here is the article the pictures were published with:

Here is a scan showing my picture:

and here is the original logo I sent in:

I didn't spend ages on the logo, maybe an hour/hour and a half, but thats because I sent it in the next day after the original article so didn't have a lot of time to spend on it.

Oh and The Independent is a big national newspaper [Broadsheet] for those who didn't know, not just a small local one.

[Caael]

Awesome job, simple but effective. Nice luck as well, getting into a large newspaper like that.


Not as good as my luck when I won a gamecube from the Official Nintendo Magazine 3 years ago : D

[Aquamarine]

Hey, it's really cool. Just as Caael said, simple but original. Good going, Tom. =P

[TheEnglishman]

Now I can't understand why designs like that should be cast aside so that officials can spend people's money on jagged rubbish.

[PDM]

That's sick.

I look forward to 2012 more than 2010 for obvious reasons.

[Platinum Sun]

I know that this is a big deal, but didn't the last design cause seizures? Is it really that much of an accomplishment to beat that? That's like beating a kid in a wheelchair at hurdles. Congratulations on... not giving people epilepsy I guess.

[Wiflewood]

Well they had a flashing version of it on their website which made people have epileptic fits, but the actual static logo didn't.

[TheEnglishman]

No the ordinary logo just made them feel embarassed.

[My Best Wishes]

The Inter-weaving thing on the London one is pretty bad...( the offical one) Just the way the colours run together, can anyone say puke?

I like your's Wifle, it's simple.
