London's Olympic logo: Could you do better?

Adjust font size:

LONDON, England (CNN) -- The jagged logo for the London 2012 Olympics has attracted a barrage of criticism, with thousands signing an online petition calling for it to be scrapped.

As if that wasn't bad enough, animated footage of the logo was removed from the London 2012 Olympic Web site amid claims that it could trigger epileptic seizures.

The logo cost £400,000 (U.S.$800,000) and took a year to develop.

The London 2012 Web site says: "The new emblem is dynamic, modern and flexible.

"It will work with new technology and across traditional and new media networks."

Critics have said it resembles a "monkey on the toilet" or a "broken swastika."
