More creative shots with the jib this afternoon - instead of the usual gallery shot, they came out of the break with a closeup of the gallery image on the newswall...

I hate the new red ticker. It reminds me to much of the old ITV News look.

Cetainly a lot more interesting than the usual close. I think they should experiment a lot more with this sort of thing, maybe a closing shot from behind the presenter.

Those pictures on the newswall with Steve Scott & Carrie Frais look like the opening titles, 'dyed' with different colours!

Urggggghhhh! Just noticed the red ticker!

The worst thing is that it doesn't even line up with the date/time box - it's at least a pixel out. Terrible.

And itv news's graphics were doing so well. Rolling Eyes

I gather no-one's noticed this before, but why does the ticker obscure the ITV.com/News URL address, where as on ITV1 it doesn't? Shouldn't they remove the ticker before the end and just leave the date/time up at the bottom left-hand side of the picture?

Welll the advantage of the new ticker is that you can't tell that the URL is there at all, whereas the see-through ticker made the clash look quite apparent.

I find the white on the red easier to read than it was before. But i do think they must have got a nursery school aged child to design it, there's an excess of primary colours!!!! Red, Yellow and Blue
