Noticed a slight alteration to the end board on Sky Sports advertisements this morning, with a new animation and font in use - still the same red and blue background however.
Comes ahead of another graphics refresh for Sky Sports News on Monday, according to a reliable poster on DS.
Hopefully there might be some new football graphics as well, probably won't find that out until next weekend.
Plenty of football on this week mind, including internationals.
Yes, but Sky have always used the start of the Premier League season to launch their new graphics, including that short-lived period in 2007 when they put the scoreline at the bottom. I also assume the internationals are quite low budget productions, certainly I remember that for a while all Sky Sports productions had animated graphics - the angular italic set from the mid-noughties - apart from Ireland games which just used a static set, seemingly as the facilities they were using for Ireland games couldn't cope with them.
I caught a bit of Sky 3D last night (sadly not in 3D), and I noticed they have introduced a 3D test card to fill the gaps:
The general presentation is also very good. In fact I would argue the style of presentation on Sky 3D is what they should be using for Sky 1, which is a mess.

It's been a pain on the eyes this week, watching cross-eyed to get a faux sense of depth and a squished picture.
However, I've put up a selection of the 'DNA' powder-based idents and 'Touch' live-action idents in the Gallery.
