Level 42?

you don't get to be a designer at a place like that without having some flair

Flair in being a smartarse perhaps, but I think the whole logo is pretty egregious.

Mark from Polar 10 design did cracking job (I think, or maybe this is covered by the exspensive kit thing where if you spent a lot on it it's got be be great 😉 ) on the Loco logo supposed to be one side of a fork leg: http://www.polar10.com/

Mitchell and Webb (I think) did a good sketch about the Olympics logo, being a bit 'bum sexy' can't find a link for it though, classic.

visually onomatopoeic

Nice bit of graphic design bullshit 😆

It is a nice logo though.

Made the mistake of saying a wanted a 'clean' design to the web designer who still takes the piss to this day 😳

I'm not a graphic designer - but there isn't a word (that I'm aware of) for words that look like the thing they describe so onomatopoeic will have to do.

There also isn't a word (that I'm aware of) for that thing where a man and a lady share a bath, and the man farts and the lady has to try and bite the bubbles. (although I'm sure that the germans have a word for that)

^namco made pacman I think

Have a browse through Urban Dictionary, it may well be lurking there somewhere 😛

Whoever managed to get this logo on live BBC TV deserves a medal!

Don't think I've ever laughed so hard in my life at something - although trying to explain my reason for laughter to the in-laws was interesting...

ATA as can be a right pain, ok if work first time when reasembled if not can be very time consuming and not cost effective when they are playing up.

I've had mine in bits but not the actual ATA assembly. Might just change the wiper seals and leave the rest.

Personally, I don't think it is super clever, but its the N of a compass....and seeing as they make GPS stuff its quite apt I guess.

Me neither. It's not like you need to be a genius to work it out. I kept looking for something more subtle and was rather disappointed with the explanation TBH.
