At the moment the logo's almost look out of place ie too far to the right (as you know you get a lot of blank bluespace to the left of the logo's) so for me center would be an improvement, but only because it would close down on the blank space.

Getting rid of the blank space would be the biggest improvement - not sure about having the logo + callsign - it may end up being too cluttered, hard to say without having seen it...

Mike, I like the Logos right aligned & without the callsign. It would be good to have them centered vertically though and maybe reduce some of the dead space to the left.

Thanks the logos Rhys ... definitely an improvement over plain text channel descriptions.

mikehayton: How do you feel about if the logos where in the middle of the channel cell. That is, it went channel number, logo, callSign (from left to right)?


Hmm, interesting question.  Things do look a little funny with the logos right aligned and a big blank space to the left.  Not sure about adding in the callsigns too.  I guess this is what they have been talking about with build 7022...


Ideally it would be nice to have the channel number followed by the channel logo, then the guide straight after that (ie, allow more of the guide to show horizontally).  But I realise that this probably would not be possible as some people would like to retain the callsign instead of logos and need the extra space to do so.


It is superb that the question is being asked though Mike.

RustyGonad:

Already had a hack at the Sky Logo's

These are very much WIP.  Still playing with the colours and trying to get something acceptable for movies and sport...

I'll email them through...



Thanks mate.  Will look at them tonight.

Is it possible to get an update with the new channels (i.e. TV3+1 and C42)?

As freitasm said, any chance of TV3+1 and C42?

Thought I'd better ask as well, seeing as he very kindly unlocked the thread for me to ask :)

The original download links for the logos, no longer exist.

Does anyone else have them that they can share? (In particular the white version ones)

Thanks.

I have these which may or may not be the ones from the link at the start of this thread. There are coloured and white logos in the rar file.
