I like the theme of the ITV music, but it's a tad too mellow, If the signature part of it was more noticable, i'd really like it.


its boring, give me the Central cake anyday!

Really? I think it looks a lot better now, after idents are supposed to show you the channel your watching, not just show you pretty pictures with a voiceover. How did you manage back when idents were just based around the companies logo only? Razz


It just doesn't fit! That's all. It does not match the setting of each idents.

I liked the company logo only idents, because there was nothing in the background that would be considered distracting.

The new ITV idents, have beautiful background, ONLY TO BE RUINED BY THE BIG LOGO THAT IS JUST TOO BIG!

I want the new sets re-released with smaller logo.

I agree that the logo is far too big. It doesn't look as bad on these pictures on t'internet, but on the telly, the fact that it is not centred make it look so bad. With the smaller ones, it looked fine because it was clearly left-aligned. Now, it apppears to be randomly slapped on the screen, not quite in the middle, but awkwardly to the side a bit.
Also, the fact that we are supposed to be able to see what side we're watching, rather than see a pretty picture is beside the point - You are no more likely to forget which channel is on with the small text as with the large one - they are both clearly visible, albeit the smaller one is much neater and smarter.
Now they are using both sets, there is an untidy mish-mash - why oh why not just make the new ones with the same size - is the art department trying to look ****?

Rant over.

Doesn't look off-centre to me, it looks fine. It's the right size. I seriously do think it's because you are used to the smaller logo.

Some of you are missing the point, the logo should be big because it's ITV1! It's a brand it's the logo, whats the point in a ident where you can barely see the logo?

But I think you are missing the point - You could clearly see the logo before.

Okay, I'm liked smaller logo, BUT I'LL NEVER GET USED TO BIG LOGOS!

IT'S BEEN WEEKS SINCE THE NEW SETS CAME OUT, AND I'M STILL UPSET ABOUT IT!

MY MAIN POINT: THE BIG LOGO MAKES THE IDENT LOOK EXTREMLEY UNNATURAL AND HORRIFINGLY HIDEOUS IN MANY WAYS!

I'M STILL GOING TO COMPLAIN TO ITV to lower the logo JUST A BIT!

Instead of changing the logo on the new ones, can't they make the logo on the old ones bigger?

I like the new bigger logo. The old one was too small to work well. Making it bigger screams "THIS IS ITV1, AND WE'RE PROUD OF IT!"

It was SMALL, and I'm NOT missing the point.

I can't be bothered debating Rolling Eyes

They look OK, but the logo is way too big IMO.
