Re: York 2009 Winter Simlympic Candadite City
wow...how come I didnt see this bid?
The logos are great especially the first one, a suggestion tho: if you did something to unite the Y's at the center, that would look so much better
great plans, hoping to see pics soon!

Added more pictures to the first post
Ski Venues
and a sneak shot of Yorkshire Metropolitan Airport
thanks all for the compliments
reply-Petrovan Ambassador-Thanks for the compliment and suggestion only issue is adding green in the winter is well a bit hard York's harsh northern climate means Leaf bearing plants die in the artic like temps but I don understand what your saying in this setting isn't likely also in games use they're will be alot of tents and stages etc...making the whole Park a gigantic festival/party celebrating the Simlympic Spirt
and the YWSOC(York Winter Simlympics Organizing Comitee) have decided on the Motto for the Games
