Great website is the best by far... all i have to say is Baku's also a great one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alphamale86 47 Report post Posted February 10, 2012 After reading the description I really like the logo. It makes a whole lot of sense and it also catches you off guard having said that logo's don't come with descriptions so yeah to people who know nothing about Qatar except that it's in the desert won't understand the Tree concept. On another note to the poster who made the comment about the tree not even being a Palm tree, let me enlighten you there are different types of trees that grow in the desert.

Galandar 40 Report post Posted February 10, 2012 deawebo, I can't open Doha's website Btw I got info regarding Baku 2020 website from the team of Baku's bid. They told me the website is going to be upgraded in the next few days. They will chance the structure, pictures, some content etc. We will also have a chance to see Baku's bid book in there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aismanggo 67 Report post Posted February 10, 2012 i kind of like the website..lot of images,movement but the backdrop is quite dull.. To baron...I have a request. We know you want to promote "your book". But can you PLEASE STOP flooding this site with those book advertisement??? Put your advertisement in the advertisement threads or ebay. Allow the rest of us to look and APPRECIATE the new LEGITIMATE LOGOS as they come out...without GETTING sidetracked with your books advertisement.it took much space in this thread..make it horizontal rather than vertical. There is thread and forum for those OTHER things. Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soaring 182 Report post Posted February 10, 2012 On another note to the poster who made the comment about the tree not even being a Palm tree, let me enlighten you there are different types of trees that grow in the desert. Um, yeah, but most pictures that I see of Doha with trees, they are palm trees. Of course, I have never visited to research the different types of trees native to Qatar.

Ikarus360 585 Report post Posted February 10, 2012 I'll be honest. This is for me, so far, the best logo of all the bids. It's beautiful, and I already knew about the local legend of the Big Tree and that Doha means "Big Tree" so i instantly captured the meaning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gangwon 259 Report post Posted February 11, 2012 maybe the worst race in logos in many years. 2012 is perfect, london, paris, ny a very high quality, madrid high and moscow middle. I liked the 2004 logos best. Rome, Stockholm, Cape Town were among the best I've ever seen, and Buenos Aires was top notch. I don't know the meaning behind Athens' bid logo, but it was decent enough without knowing the background. And as a group, the 5 logos were distinct enough from each other in design and colour. Whereas the 2020 logos all use the same colour, and nothing stands out from the designs. I hope Rome and Istanbul can give us something different. As for Doha, the logo looks great. Then again, a dot would've made a good Doha logo too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krow 562 Report post Posted February 12, 2012 i'm already thinking about my sexy review thread when the other two are out, loaded with half-invented, semi-autobiographical vignettes. which logo will be compared to the time i won $500 at the slots and got so drunk i slapped my brother and threw up at the casino and which will remind me more of that time i tried to trip someone in high school and ended up falling myself headfirst into my locker and losing a tooth? stay tuned, folks...

deawebo 77 Report post Posted February 12, 2012 All logos are too colorful!!! :S i liked Paris, NYC 2012, Rome 2004, Rio, Chicago 2016... But this time... Mmmmm just Doha and Baku perhaps the other two a great dislike, ironic since the worst logos here mean the most probably bids, and the two best ones are darkhorses :S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mattygs 274 Report post Posted February 13, 2012 I prefer this Doha logo to the exploding watch from their previous bid. Still, none of these logos reaching my favourite era of bid logos, from the 2004/2006 race. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Rols 1898 Report post Posted February 13, 2012 I agree with the comments here that this set of logos so far pale in comparison with those from the 2004 and 2012 races (I can't remember the 2008 ones that much at all, so I won't include them). But certainly, none of this batch come close to appealing to me as did, say, Stockholm, Rome and Buenos Aires 2004, London, Paris or NYC 2012. Rio's 2016 bid logo's also a personal fave of mine.

Olympic Fan Darcy 320 Report post Posted February 13, 2012 i really loved 2004's logo minus rome's, wasn't a fan of it, Colosseum i understood but it looked like it was drawn by a child 2008's i really disliked, osaka, toronto meh, paris was barely even a logo i mean seriously istanbuls and beijings were ok 2012 hmm theres were a mixed bunch, madrid, one of my least ever, paris one of my favourite ever, nyc also very good, moscow i didn't understnd but maybe it links back to something there? Londons a little too easy but yeah Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
