Don't laugh at it! Looking for some feedback on the logo though, but just so you know I didn't want the writing behind Opinions to be completely scratched out, but still let me know what you think about the logo Okay rolling on with WC Opinions, and here's a pretty good one The Super Bowl XXXVIII Halftime Show Arguably one of the most controversial TV moments in recent years, but what do you think about it? Was it fake or was it an actual mistake? Was it the big deal it was and still is made out to be, or is it no big deal? So WC, what's your opinion?

The "Opinions" part of the logo is a bit....ick. There are tons of fonts you can find (for free, not illegally)that should be used instead. Sorry. The half-time show was staged I am sure, but it was a really the biggest bunch of stupid bs junk around. The way it was made into the hugest scandal ever!!! was appalling. It was a boob. So what? Of the audience that saw it - maybe .0000000003% haven't seen one before?

It always amazes me how big a deal this was in America, I think way too much fuss was made about it. I think it was probably planned.

I'm sorry but I wasn't looking for opinions on the logo thank you ;D I actually was using GIMP since I can't buy Photoshop, so it was a combination of my crappy skills and trying to use a laptop trackpad that got me that logo. I'll try to redo it sometime

I actually didn't see it. I don't normally watch halftime shows. I didn't find it a big deal at the time and I don't find it to be a big deal now. At least to me.

It was a breast. A natural part of the female body. And, since they vary in size and shape, I've seen bigger on the fat guys in my old neighborhood who mow their lawn shirtless.
I was not offended, and I was kind of annoyed that other people were, too. I mean, I got over it because it's just a matter of opinion, but still ... it's not like JT raped or murdered Janet Jackson.
Worse things happen on TV (and, sadly, in real life) every single day than a micro-second flash of a breast that was mostly covered anyway.
My personal opinion is that some people need to re-prioritize their viewing habits.

My personal opinion is that some people need to re-prioritize their viewing habits. Good points. I'm against any sort of FCC regulation as it is (in fact that whole organization should just close down), so this to me was completely stupid. The news story a few weeks ago about that guy who had four kids with his teenager daughter (and three of them died) should disturb people much more than a freaking breast on TV. "BUT THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!" So what...little girls will have them eventually, and little boys will see them eventually. Big deal. It's not going to kill them.

It was staged and the backlash in retrospect was absolutely ridiculous.
Still, I hate when they do something like that to overshadow the music.

I understood why people were upset, it was just a dumb publicity stunt, but the level of reaction and furore was over the top.

It was no big deal, but it certainly showed that over four hundred years later America's Puritanical roots are still alive and well.
Violence? That's ok. You can literally see people being blown away on the evening news. But a breast? A natural part of the female anatomy? End of the world.
Silly, silly country.
