And what’s all this about in Forrest Place? Not to mention that such a gathering would have been illegal in Charles Court’s day, I can’t help feeling that there could have been a better solution for the city of Perth logo than to have crowns hanging round the swans’ necks. Two swans with neck crowns holding up a shield with a swan and a crown – and another shield on it?
Swans, crowns and shields. Ok we got it. We’re lucky the shield on the shield doesn’t have another swan on it. With a crown.

The Worst of Perth 
What’s with the South Park crew?
I got a submission refused by the City of Perth once because my art work was missing the “half a” border around it.
I thought it was a mistake with the logo I got sent so I removed it… I mean why only half a border?
Love the site mate

Snow and ear muffs? South Park comes to Perth.

Crowns around necks should be 6-pack rings and the brids should be fighting over a tinny of Swan.

Thanks protium. The logo is odd. On first glance it gives the impression of professionalism. I like the “of” though.
Robotnikk, a 6 pack holder would be perfect.

Ha ha, Protium, exactly the same thing happened to me, and I had removed the upside down L for the same reason! The poor slob that told me to put it back in couldn’t tell me what the hell it was though! Maybe it’s a bus-shelter in profile and the swans are waiting on the Blue Cat?

God i laughed at this when it went up me and a guy from work joked for a while about replacing some of the mouths with the southpark styled mouths :P
It’s funny how they all look like they’re about to accept something into their mouths? perhaps from a catholic priest?

The eyes Peter? The mouths are what you need to wonder about.

No! Crashinox. They were just a little *below* waist height.
It’s an illustration of how the general populus is regarded by the superior beings in high places: We’re just a mob of suckers being kept in line for their personal benefit.
