Sky News Cleanup Feb 09 *updated

Quick idea at cleaning up Sky News' Graphics, whilst maintaining the 3D boxes and colour scheme.

i wonder if this will be the same as the HD feed, but it is very good.

Very good as always.

Very, very good. Only things I'd change are as follows:

1) The blue used around the middle of the video for the headline name. Don't think it quite fits in.

2) The box above the DOG and clock doesn't align with them quite right I think...

3) Perhaps move the Live BUG to the left like the BBC.

4) Only minor, but although SKY's ticker does scroll too fast in my opinion, yours seems to be a bit slow.

Other than that, fantastic! 3/4

Excellent work Martin - love it - especially the second version.

Top notch as usual Martin!!
To add my tuppence worth of suggestions -

1 - Why not have a blue back ground to the TONIGHT box with the current Sky News logo.

2 - I think that having all text in capital letters would fit into the current (favoured) style.

3 - the height of the pop out text lines up with the heading box to the left - for example the Breaking News lines up exactly with the white on black box to its right.

Great stuff.

Good work mate, what software did you use by the way?
