No problem.
I don't think so. It's probably New York City or something. I could try to get a background of Detroit.

I know Weatherscan won't be in HD, but here is an image I created if it WERE in HD. I didn't have enough room to fit the crawl in at the bottom, so I had to exclude it.
EDIT: I know, it doesn't look good. I'll try harder next time.
Title: Re: Jonathon's Artwork
Post by: Tyler on May 26, 2011, 10:33:18 PM
How is that HD? It's not even a 16:9 aspect ratio.
Title: Re: Jonathon's Artwork
Post by: Donovan on May 26, 2011, 10:36:02 PM
TIP: Go to your slide/design tab and change it to 16:9. Anything in 4:3 seriously cannot be HD, as HD is widescreen. Also try using some gradient fills.  :wave:
Title: Re: Jonathon's Artwork
Post by: Jonathon on May 27, 2011, 04:06:47 PM
After seeing Tyler and Donovan's posts, I tweaked it. And made it 16:9. :)
EDIT: The WOW! logo got cut off when I posted it. I'll see if I can fix that.

*blows dust off*
haven't been here in forever...
anyway, this is how I envisioned Weatherscan to look if TWC ever gave it a graphics update after the WATT relaunch. It's not the best, and I'm sure TWC could make something that would look at least a thousand times better.

so what do you guys think? i'm open to any suggestions you have  B)
Title: Re: Jonathon's Artwork
Post by: Jonathon on December 26, 2016, 05:27:24 PM
Been a while...
I've been having some Weatherscan withdrawals lately, so I figured, "why not make something?"
This took roughly 2 hours to put together, especially with getting the l-bar and other graphics to be exact, but I'm somewhat pleased with the result.
If you guys have any suggestions, feel free to let me know. Thanks  :)

edit: because some people would ask... It's pretty obvious I didn't make the icons. lol :P

Good work Jonathon, it's cool to see your progress.
Title: Re: Jonathon's Artwork
Post by: Jonathon on September 06, 2017, 08:00:18 PM
Thank you!  :thumbsup:
In all honesty, I'm not too pleased with my earlier stuff, because I was quite young and didn't really have much experience with GIMP, PowerPoint, etc.; but now that I've gotten more accustomed to them, I think it's been a LOT better than I ever expected.
Just for the hell of it, here's a kinda realistic pic I worked on of how the original IS looked back after the graphics update back in 2007. I'm not doing the 2013 design - I cannot figure out how to make it look anything like it does in real life.

EDIT: Oh great. The LDL was off center. I'll adjust that in the next pic.
Title: Re: Jonathon's Artwork
Post by: Jonathon on July 28, 2019, 09:51:50 PM
Moved over to Mac, so I started to make some artwork again.

I made a few adjustments to this, mainly with adjusting the size of the containers and the fonts. I forgot to include the temp on the LDL (a minor oversight on my part), but otherwise I think it came out fairly well.

Lemme know what ya think!  :)

I enjoyed all your artwork, it feels like if we went back in time. Also sorry for reposting your WeatherScan HD picture, Jonathon. It was in 960x720 format and I wanted to resize it to 1366x768 so it can look like HD.

Here's the true version of your picture:
