# I never said that I thought he nicked my idea
as I cannot possibly prove that!

But what I did say is that I think Channel 4 overlooked my similar attempt (Ice Skating C4 Logo) which I posted first and which I later pointed out the similarities between our two animations - just4fun's animation is great but I don't think there was any legitimate claim that mine wasn't quality either.

And I'd appreciate it if you didn't wind-up an already volatile board, I've had enough of people rubbishing my name that I've spent a long time building up.

# Channel Idents are shite,
especially when plastered onto a corner of the screen.

I'm not so slow that I don't know what fucking TV channel I just turned on.

# Yours is nice
And even if he did steal the idea, it does look smoother. Get over it.

# I will ;)
It's not so much the prize, but the publicity of having one of your animation play nightly on Channel 4 that might have broke the ice (pardon the pun) on me getting some work.

# my understanding was

that is good. That wouldn't download on Friday for me. All I got was the hey kids.

I could only see 4 frames of the winner. 19.6k download speed, fucks sake. BT won't do anything about it either. The fuckers

# Split line?
They banned that here. You still find them in old flats where they "economised" on lines used.

I once saw a place with a 13k max on a good day.

# I quite like parkinsons jokes
they are very funny. But too un-PC for channel 4. Not that I like telly anyway.

# To be honest I don't think C4
were really looking for an "Alternative" Logo as both winners weren't exactly cutting edge satire.

Here's one of mine that might have swayed them away from picking my skating logo.

# that's miles better
I like the funny ones best. Most of the winners wouldn't download on my spaccy connection anyway. Infact nothing downloads on this spaccy connection anymore.

I've been waiting forever to get the above animation to download and it's hung.
