well the regional websites are shocking. all those 4megapixel photos being resized to about 100px wide.

The only decent website that ITV seem to have is tynetees.tv


That's true! All the images are stretched and look realy bad and some still have the blue and yellow sets!

Oh yeah and why does ITV Local use the wrong fonts for banners?

On the @www website, under client news for ITV this is the last peice on there:

ITV portal home page redesign
12/4/06
@www has been commissioned by ITV Network to redesign the home page for its online media portal. ITV's online portal is powered by @www's IsiteĀ® content management system.

Has this already been done? I though that the current site has been up since January

From what I've seen @www struggle to design a decent website that works in both IE and Firefox. Just looking at the footer of the itv.com website illustrates it.

Exactly, it's a good thing there is a new Firefox extension called IE Tab, which similates IE without you using IE.

well you are using IE, you're embedding it into firefox so it's kinda pointless.

Not sure about the the new look they've just phased in, it looks so awfully crowded and cluttered, and the fonts are big. Shocked

The ITV logo is massive now.
Will they redesign the ITV2, 3 and maybe 4 sites?

I contacted ITV Duty Office in January and they said a revamp in the middle of the year. But at the moment it is really crowded with just the home page redesigned a little, and the rest with the horrible massive white header. I like the animation on the front but the ITV logo on the homepage at the momnet is bigger than on the other pages
