i hope they get rid of all of them and go back to one. one can only wish  :bleh: :P
Or better yet have the two sat monsters use LDLs in the IS again. Viz-ran LDLs seems like too much IMO  :wacko:
I've gone off on a journey to be a moderator at another forum, but this place will forever remain home for me~

TWC's tornado coverage on Dallas-Fort Worth kinda reminds me of Vortex2 for some reason. Did they skip a commercial break during the last segment in the last hour of PME? I was sorta flipping channels at that time.

It's gonna add to one of his "random live report moments"! Classic!

Viz makes it more flexible to switch between the larger and smaller ldls. I assume it could be all scheduled into an IS though :hmm:

The logo animation is interesting but could also be really distracting.

It doesn't say |HD| anymore :blink: :thumbdown: :footinmouth:

But I don't hate it too much, although it reminds of something news channels do by always rotating the logo. :yes:

Pittsburgh - America's most livable city.
Republic of Okean - World's most livable country.

That's all I got. Oh! Ich kann Deutsch!

I don't mind it, although I can understand how others can find it a little disturbing.

The only times now it says lHDl is during K flavors (1:30) and Long form (1:00) but don't be surprised if the logo is updated to those flavors as well.

I would not be surprised if this new logo goes live for everything. Think FOX News rotating logo.

That's what I'm thinking too, as long as the IntelliStar can handle an animation like that. A lot of other news channels, and the Big 3 channels are like this.
