I actually had to look for it. I saw typography on it's side. Then, I remembered how lonely most people are that I know who live in the UK.

£14,000 fucking christ on a cracker. Who cares if it looks like a guy holding his cock or some fat fuck flipping you off from the waist. That much for a department that does what it is supposed to do, effecient spending!

Crap did they at least get the other letters of the alphabet in the same font to use latter?

While I agree that it may sound outrageous, I think one of the comments posted there pretty much nailed it:

Quote:
14k might look like alot but the designer would have come up with 100s of designs and concepts that the customer then picks from, if the pick this one then so be it but the 14k isnt just for this logo its for the time spent coming up with all the other ideas.
This isn't online porn design we're talking about, these firms can easily have to keep redoing the same damn logo over and over again for weeks, before the client is happy. Thus they bill accordingly.

The publicity so far is well worth the £14,000 ( $28,500 ) and i think they should keep the LOGO as is..

I dunno how it could take you guys a while to figure it out... since they flipped it for you just below :P

That's dumb as hell. Just cause some idiot on a forum flipped the logo and said hey look dick in hand.. you kno it was some stoner on a forum..

than some media pick up on it and everyone blows it out of proportion..

ahhh gotta love it...

Yep. They couldn't have bought this kind of publicity.
