I really like the hour by hour. Reminds me of the IS2 a bit.

Alternative Version to the Hour By Hour Forecast Screen (I'll probably end up using this version over the other.)

Third (and hopefully) final layout design.

This is regardomg the project you began making at the beginning of the month, but I am surprised how well those icons fit with what you've made! :blink:  I wonder if they will eventually make it on-air?  Because they look like crap on weather.com but really good on your "SMARTCAST STAR." :biggrin:

I really just wish that is what TWC did to the SLF instead of just upgrading it to Viz. I miss WPS :(

Thank you. Using these icons were literally my last resort, anything from the 4000 to the two IS icon sets looked awful. Even looking around online, commercial icon sets that were ok for free use were too cartoonish for a project like this, so I really had no choice but to use the weather.com icons since they looked the most realistic if used in HD.

I really just wish that is what TWC did to the SLF instead of just upgrading it to Viz. I miss WPS :(


Me too, it's a shame they cut corners and chose to make a copycat of the HD LF.

Followup on "What If" Satellite LF Concept
(There's a second version of the 3 Day Forecast here that's modeled off of the current SLF.)

I felt it was time to update my YT logo, this is the background I'm going to use on my channel for the remainder of Severe Weather Season, then I'll change it to a hurricane background for Hurricane Season in June.

Thanks, I was going for a Sepia tone look. It makes it look old fashion I guess would be the right term for it. :)

This is how the backgrounds turned out, not bad.

Meh, didn't come out the way I envisioned in my head, but it's close enough I suppose. :itsok: Then again I'm very critical of my work. Anyway, this is just one of those "what if" scenarios about how the SD IntelliSTAR might look if graphically upgraded to match it's HD counterpart. Just a thought, like I said it didn't come out exactly the way I was thinking in my head, but it works. I'm not sure how the LDL would look if they chose to redo that over too.
