The logos dont appear in the tv guide grid, it still says the channel name on the left, however as you scroll down the channels the synopsis at the bottom of the guide screen is now displaying the colour logos. I thought the guide grid was supposed to display the logos instead of the text? Am I missing something here, i've redone the process many times and end up with the same half baked result :( ok so i’ve applied these logos to my W7 build 7600 x64 media center.

He'll probably be able to fix it in a future version. Hmm, I would drop a note about it to the developer in this thread on The Green Button forums about it.

To have the logo correctly displayed I have to remove the listings from the HD channel.Cheers.

The reason is probably because the channel names can differ, especially when dealing with local channels, and it was most likely the easiest method to get a reliable output from the program.Inside the program you should be able to locate the channel and assign it the HD logo manually though.

Hope this makes sense ! The program seems to tie the logo with the listing and not the channel, is this the case ?

I used the logos in the Harmony One section instead of the 8xx, there seems to be more of them (for UK anyways) and the quality is better (some gradient fills and shadows) Look great in media center, I never needed to change the size, just crop all the excess around the logo so media center displays it as big as possible.

Glad you've filled in the void of color logos. Given the large number of people who seem to want them, I will probably start encorporating color logos into the main program. But before I do, I'm trying to do some hacking of dll's myself, to enhance the guide experience. This may change some of the logo specs, so don't fell like you have to spend too much time on this... yet! Great Work, Mike! Glad you’ve filled in the void of color logos.
