It's different I guess but WTF?

There is no visual imagery of England/UK or London - I had to stare very hard - like one of those abstract puzzles - to even see the numbers 2012 there, I thought it was an animal (lion?) at first.
The Greece/Athens 2004 and Sydney 2000 logos were much better.

Agreed. Way too abstract, it just looks silly IMO.

The olympic flame is the Chicago skyline

And the torch is the skyline mirroring itself in the "great lake"... nice IMnshO.

Why are Brits so crap at things like this?

If you were given a list of countries and then asked who is likely to do th shittest logo, most people would prob pick britain.

It looks like the block figure on the right is giving the one on the left fellatio.

It sort of does!
It still looks like a silly cartoon animal to me rather than "2012"
