TV Fest on Four

You just said it all there

"from people who watch it"

The people that don't watch it often complain about it

Be as harsh as you want, I've worked in digital design for long enough to take bad critisism with a smile Smile

Your right about the logo, it could probably be a little bigger (more like the second splash example) and it should be more in line with the box.

thanks for your comments

E4 on Freeview?

Charlie I think you missed the point of the article

it's about advertising, the more people that can see you the more money you can charge advertisers.

At the moment E4 needs subscription + advertising to survive BUT and here is the point, it will get to a stage where Freeview owners are high enough for E4 to survive as Free 2 Air as it will be more cost effective to lose the subscription but have extra ad revenue.

ITV News

Very good, I prefer this to the current over the top look

gray and blue itv news

I love the background but the text and grey just feels out of place.

6/10 from me (and I know I've done some awful mocks myself) - the red doesn't work for me, it's a poor mans sky news, but nice effort.

I suppose you have to just learn to live with your crap mocks, the circle was just a really bad idea, the colours in the first one where awful and the font looks squished.

The second one with the square logo was better but not great.

I prefer my Channel 4 mock

Thanks

I was going for familiar but different if you know what I mean, something that makes you go "yeah man". Smile

The whole mock is very crap to be honest, I should have looked at it longer before actually putting it online.

Is there any way of deleting a thread?

I decided to have a go at Channel 4, I've kept the block logo but gone for a cool blue look.

Your right it is awful, I think the brighter one with the square logo is slightly better but not that much better.

It's time to put this in a coffin and say goodnight I think Smile

This isn't a critisism but I think the ones with the numbers are a poor/squished version of the ABC 1 logo Smile

They aren't bad, I like round logos but previous comments where right my original one just didn't work.

I've decided I don't like this and am going to go back to the drawing board and try to come up with something better.

How about if I replace the logo with this (thanks to zukey - couldn't find normal logo - but then I didn't look very hard)
