I've gotta admit, I didn't expect much more from an English committee. Every committee (or organisation) seems to think they're down-with-the-kids these days, so anything thats supposed to appeal to all audiences just ends up looking like a pile of dung to most people.

I noticed a similar snippet on TV last night, from all appearences very few people (excluding the committee) seem to think this logo is up to much.

It is quite amazing how today when we finally have incredible tools around for graphic design and incredible IT power; the graphics is getting uglier every time... I think it is a shame. This logo is extremely ugly and what is even more important it has no message, and a logo has to have a message, that?s a crucial feature for a logo. Ugly and nonsense in the same time. A real killer thing:(:(

What the hell. Is that part of a jig saw puzzle? That is ugly. I like ours much better.

haha... I am afraid the other few offered for voting is also bad. I don't think this should be decided by popular vote, they have to form some committee from artists, graphic designers etc. and they should decide. I am afraid the popular opinion has nothing to do with graphic design quality, it is just the opinion of the majority and in case like art or design it is not working well.

I am a graphic designer. Honestly, I could have pulled something out of my ass that looked better than that logo. :s

Ironically, with the diamond in the centre, that is exactly what some people say the logo is all about. It's the goatsee logo.

Experienced

well...

The Video on the official website of the logo has been removed due to people experiencing epileptic fits after viewing the scene with the diver! :rofl:

Can't belive that they someone got paid a huge sum of money to make this pos and the fact all these flashing shapes might be epilepsy inducing didn't

occur to them!

EDIT:

Someone tell me just one way how it symbolises the Olympics, London, or the alleged "dreams and aspirations" of millions.

They're shattered...

    • Microsoft released new Defender update for Windows 11, 10, Server ISO installations

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft released new Defender update for Windows 11, 10, Server ISO installations by Sayan Sen Microsoft releases new Windows Defender update packages very frequently to protect against various newly discovered malware. Once a while every three months or so, the company also pushes out these updates to Windows images (WIM and VHD) and ISOs, that are used to install Windows. Hence with the newest Windows 11 update available via the official MCT tool, you should get these definitions. This update package is necessary as a Windows installation image may contain old, outdated anti-malware definitions and software binaries. Aside from better security, these updates can also provide improved performance benefits in some cases. When a new Windows installation is set up, there may be a temporary security risk due to outdated Microsoft Defender protection in the OS installation images. This happens because the antimalware software included in these images might not be up to date. Thus Microsoft says that these updated definitions essentially help close this protection gap. Microsoft delivered the latest security definitions for Windows images via security intelligence update version 1.445.323.0. The Defender package version is also the same. It applies to Windows 11, Windows 10 ESU, Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021, Win 10 Ent LTSC 2019, Win 10 Ent LTSB 2016, Windows Server 2022, Windows Server 2019, and Windows Server 2016. Microsoft writes: "This package updates the anti-malware client, anti-malware engine, and signature versions in the OS installation images to following versions: Platform version: 4.18.26040.7 Engine version: 1.1.26040.8 Security intelligence version: 1.447.236.0" From Microsoft's security bulletin, we learn that the security intelligence update version 1.447.236.0 was released early last month and adds threat detections for various malware like trojan, backdoor exploits, ransomware, stealers, AutoKMS, and more. For those wondering, the latest intelligence update is version 1.451.297.0 at the time of writing.
