The idents are OK, but the dogs are terrible.
The spacing of the font on the dog makes it look like a five year old put it together. Awful.

And for the record, I rather liked the logo with the Union Flag inside. Very Happy

I personally do not like the new logo. It looks a bit clumsy and does not have the same pop as the old logos which had a 3D look to them

the DOGs look very flat and it makes me turn off the channel.

You'd seriously stop watching a channel solely because the DOG looks flat? Shocked

So that's who they ask everytime the TV channels tell us how valued DOGs are by their viewers.

Eric Olson, the creator of Klavika font, said his font seen on the new Eurosport graphic packages is a stolen thing.

EDIT: OK. It's "A user posting under the name of Eric Olson on a nondescript logo website has made a claim that Eurosport are using an unlicensed copy of his font Klavika."

Thanks Michael. Now, I'm gonna edit a Wikipedia article about Klavika to reflect this.

I shall translate into English:

"A user posting under the name of Eric Olson on a nondescript logo website has made a claim that Eurosport are using an unlicensed copy of his font Klavika."

There is no mention of it being stolen, merely unlicensed, which, as the Process Font Foundry only seem to licence it for print or web use, could have some basis in reality.

I doubt however that Eurosport, or, to be more accurate Les Telecreateurs, would blithely use a font without clearing it first.
