Bringing texts back might work, but that'll be yet more of the screen taken up with graphics. And if they only get read out every now and then, a request for babe A to do something might end up getting read out by babe C, long after babe A has disappeared. This hypothetical situation became reality no end of times in the last few years. Maybe thats why they stopped doing them?
The less graphics the better if you ask me. The original thin OSG like you have on Xtra is the one that works best, but only when it is single height. The corner windows should be done away with as the camera is constantly having to move to keep the girl's head in shot when the current ones are up. PL keep it relatively simple, but, their OSG is too big.

Yeah, I think the best example was Partyland when it started last year; a tiny red box for texting, the 2 numbers just on top of it- and that was it for the most part. Bliss.
Bring it back, NOW!!!!!!!

Not ideal, but I took a photo from my first recording of Partyland (20/03/09) This is Reede and Caty Cole at 1:05am.
Big thanks to Skateguy's guide on uploading pictures, in the tech zone
It's not just the head that gets hidden by the excess graphics - sometimes it's the girls' bums - not good when the ass is as good as Paige's lol!!
Now that is MUCH more like it, look how much you can see! There's room for Jada and Elise's legs and Stevie can do her naked limbo under it.

YEs that was very good. But I still think that if Cellcast standardised on the BSXtra type of OSG'S and no other boxes and got rid of the "excessive" BSXTreme adverts on the main BS channels I think we would all be happy as overall (I think) the shows are pretty good! Happy customers (Us) keeps Cellcast happy as they get more money in their hands!
Going through some other recordings I still have from the last year, the OSGs just kept getting bigger and bigger.
Surely there's just no need for it?
To quote Big B. -
ARE YOU LISTENING CELLCAST??!
You're in the chair again Jam, I'm spent!
