Thanks for catching that; I posted the clip of the wrong edition, However, they aren't from the same era. This is the previous look of the 10 p.m. edition (from the same era as the 7 p.m. clip) -- it looked quite different from how it looks now:

When did France 24 revamp their lower thirds?

Unsure, however I noticed them today. I have to say, they are awful. The previous ones were among my favourite from the international news channels, they were very modern and clean. These new ones seem intrusive and the gradients aren't smooth, they're too brash and tacky.
