It is appealing, it is aggressive.. and it suits the caption well (unless you are in a democratic country)

I doubt the other people were ‘copycatting’… I just made a similar one before even looking through the gallery. You really think that you’re the only one who thinks “Nazi” when they think “bad logo”? They have one of the most recognized logos of all time. And are pretty universally recognized as one of the most bad people of all time. They have bad logo written all over them. Get over yourself.

all of the employees should have to wear armbands, even puppys.
Actually the nazis had a great logo and were great at branding themselves — it was just their company philosophy that didn’t turn out to be so ethical :)
Well my friend, I don’t know if I can hold you off much longer. No matter who ends up on top come December 8th (even if it’s not either one of us), I hope both our logos will meet again at the judges table. Oh, and if you’re ever in NYC, you’re welcome to come over and borrow my laser disc player anytime ;)
We are supposed to create ‘bad’ logos – they don’t have to be ugly, just BAD. Some people are equating bad with ugly. Bad ‘can’ be ugly, but it doesn’t have to be.
This is such a great resource that you are providing and you give it away for free. I enjoy seeing websites that understand the value of providing a prime resource for free. I truly loved reading your post. Thanks!
Good thing you’re not a failed artist!
Any thoughts of writing a book on your life experiences/philosophies? (I may have the perfect title for it if you do…)

@Ashocka, I think it does capture the requirements. The logo’s central focus is simple, black and white, but there is a subtle complexity in the surrounding red element, which is certainly found in a rainbow. There are only three colors in use, which isn’t a color wheel. And as for the puppy’s spirit? Well, it IS a white puppy after all. ^.^
Finally, an issue that I am passionate about. I have looked for information of this caliber for the last several hours. Your site is greatly appreciated.
I reich this very much.
Can’t remember where I’ve seen this before…
Erm… excuse me but gas anyone ever thought about how serious this is?!?!?
I have nothing more to say than… wow.
Combines the evils of the Holocaust, Enron and…
Dell computers.
That’s synergy.
looked at it for half a sec… It gave me the creepes.
And (as stated above) a combination of Dell/Hell and Nazis…beats anything when bad taste is what u are looking for.
A Winner
Thanks for the comments everyone!!!
I inspired a lot of copycat submissions as well.

Kinda misses the point… not sure these un-votes are going to count for anything.
Thanks for an idea, you sparked at thought from a angle I hadn’t given thoguht to yet. Now lets see if I can do something with it.
Ha genius. I want this one to win

@Brian: Well, I think getting these “dis”likes makes me a winner enough! Awesome job on yours by the way! It’s so ugly I want to throw up!
LOL on my last comment. I never thought I would say “It’s so ugly I want to throw up!” as a complement to anyone.
You’ll always be a champion in my book :)
Haha i love it :)
It’s fabulous and doesn’t miss the point at all.

This is clearly a VERY bad logo for the client.
I love this competition! :D

Godwin’s law wins again.
this is just poor taste.
I think one of your advertisements caused my internet browser to resize, you might want to put that on your blacklist.
This is trash talk.
It’s awesome, but doesn’t really fit into the point of the contest.
Very good tho!
@Ashocka: How dare you question the leadership!
Into the burning chamber!!
It just screams of cutting edge info-metrics and a real drive to eliminate ‘waste’.
What a great resource!
