Beautiful job on the split screen and HD graphics recreations! :clap: I even like that mock control room video feed screen.
Classic TWC, Weatherscan, legacy WeatherSTARs, and classic Prevue/TV Guide fan.

R.I.P. Weatherscan: 1999-2022

If I were in charge at TWC, this is what Hurricane Irma coverage would've looked like!

Here more graphics I created. I posted the blank WxMap Background in case anyone wants to use it.
I've also updated the HD LDL and now it's finally complete.

I have no words, those graphics are incredible! It looks like a lot of work was put into that, and it really paid off since that looks so close to the graphics at the time. Fantastic job!

Thanks! It actually only took about an hour to create the Day Planner Background and the HD LDL took about an hour as well. If you know what your doing it doesn't take that long to my surprise.

In case anyone is interested I am currently working on one of my life long desires ever since 4th grade and attempt to create the HD SLF Emulator! This could go two ways, create the whole thing with Photoshop and Viz Artist (which TWC did) or go the Cinema 4d and After Effects route. Both will have the same graphical outcome. I am a little hesitant with Viz Artist because that entails a yearly license renewal fee and my license expires in a few months and I'm unsure if I'll renew. But if I go Cinema 4d and After Effects, no weather data can be imported at all and can not transfer into Viz if I decide to renew. Basically I'll have to restart all over. In the meantime I've posted a screen shot of my work so far.

Here's a demo of my re creation of the 2008-2011 SLF graphics as we approach the 10 year anniversary of the debut of those graphics! They're not done yet but I have a good head start. May 21, 2008.

Working on more HD Weather Graphics. This particular graphic is in SD, which would probably be featured on weather.com at the time. The dates in the graphics are not guaranteed accurate as this was quickly put together and is based on what I remember.

With WeatherScan to be discontinued, I have decided to plan a new design scheme to add to a unit if I ever got my hands on one.
