[QUOTE="spacemanc, post: 835135, member: 116254"] Maybe you've got an earlier pack? Check the file which is there now - it contains FreeSat channels only (and looking at the number of them I don't think that even all the FreeStat logos are there) I'd be happy to make a few of them myself, but from what I have read in various places, most of them are already made - but are not available in the pack. I actually think that the whole process of producing them could be automated to a large extent. Consider this. There are several .xml files around containing lists of all the Sky channels. Also if you do a google image search for "'x' logo", then 9/10 times the first image found is the correct logo. There are process automation programs available, which after a bit of configuration, should be able to find all the logos from the spreadsheet, and then save them in a folder with the correct name. Then using Photoshops automation and batch features, it should be possible to edit them to the correct dimensions, size and format, and the same feature can then be used to easily create create glossy versions of all the logos. Basically after the initial configuration, all that would be required would be to manually check for wrong or out of date logos. You could even quite easily make the program produce files for the first 3 images found, which should then virtually gaurantee that the correct logo was available when they are manually checked.
