Radio 2
Radio 3
Radio 4
Radio Five Live
Radio Five Live Sports Extra
1Xtra
World Service
6Music
Asian Network
Radio Cymru (Welsh language Radio Wales)
Radio Ulster
Radio Scotland

The links don't work as Tripod don't allow linking. Try uploading to Lycos instead.

You'll have to try lycos.co.uk not lycos.com if you want to link to them.

By the way, these are logos not idents! You don't get idents on radio as they are the short film or graphics that go before programmes on TV.

They're quite good for a first try, at least they are good quality. If you're going to post a series of logos like this make sure you leave a gap between each one, otherwise it looks cluttered and confusing.

Nice idea I suppose, but I think they should be complimented by a logo or scheme of some kind. At the moment, each of the numbers of the main networks represents their genre. While the national networks (Wales/Ulster/Scotland/Cymru) have a certain degree of freedom.

Well you do actually get Idents on radio, but obviously they are audio idents.

Great, I wasn't skinned alive! I'll improve on them, just not clear what you can call identification for radio networks...
