I know its a bit late, but I have to say that whereas I was proud that London was hosting the 2012 Olympics, that has now turned to embarrassment now that I’ve seen the proposed artwork.
Quite frankly its CRAP, the BBC showed a lot of pieces of artwork done by viewers, and quite frankly these were so much better than the official images.

The viewers feedback on the BBC website is almost all negative, so I’m obviously not the only one who doesn’t like it, almost 80% of those who voted on the BBC poll voted it as a wooden spoon.

I just think that its a real shame that after winnng the Olympic Bid for 2012, that we get let down by shoddy artwork.
Here’s what Jon Stewart has to say on the matter.
