LFMusicFan's Emulations

[Mike M]

Looks great!

[LFMusicRocks]

Derek, I like your emulations! I wish my parents can buy me AE, but they can, but for that, I'll have to take a graphic designing class, probably next summer, then if my parents consider me proven good in graphics and stuff, they'll probably buy me AE. I also need Photoshop CS3, because the one on my desktop is a starter edition .

If you like to make an XL for me (A v3 perhaps)

CC city Hayward

8 City observations

Berkeley
Concord
Fremont
Hayward
Livermore
Napa
San Jose
San Francisco

For the daypart, extended, and 36 hr forecast, put it as Hayward area.

[LFMusicFan]

Ok, I'm going to make this very clear for everyone: please stop bombarding me with XL requests. You have absolutely no idea how time consuming it is to configure it for a different area. Changing the text is no problem. It's creating the new maps and aligning the radar just right that really eats up time. And about half of the time, the people don't even watch the emulations I create for them! It's really not worth it for me to go through all the trouble to create a clip, only to have it be ignored. I've also been very busy lately, and have had barely enough time to sit down and create emulations. And once school starts, there will be even less time. So right now, creating XL emulations is really not at the top of my priority list.

[LFMusicFan]

My XL emulations are probably going to either stop or become far less numerous, since winter is coming, and I have no way to do the winter precipitation on the radar. I've thought about using TWC's radar that Martin found on taiganet, but that would mean for 3 hours, I'd have to sit there and download the each radar frame as it updates. So unless someone has a solution to this problem, don't expect many more XL emulations until next April or May.

[LFMusicRocks]

Derek, there is no way I'm forcing you to do this. I'm sorry I've been annoying lately to you, so please don't do it if you don't want to.

[Tyler]

For years - the XL never had wintry preip on it's radar. You could just not do wintry precip.

[Mike M]

Yeah, I wouldn't mind just having rain colors for snow on the radar, especially since it was like that on the XL for most of its life as Tyler stated. Don't worry about it. 

[LFMusicFan]

Well, seeing as you guys don't care whether or not I have the winter precip, I guess I can forget about it then.  That really makes things a heck of a lot easier for me.

Krishnan, it's not that I don't want to create an XL configuration for you. It's just that it's a very time consuming process. Maybe when I get enough time, I'll do it. But you'll have to send me all the required info before I even consider doing it. I can't tell you how many times I've gotten PMs from people asking for emulations, when they don't provide any information for their location. If you can provide me with a CC location, 8 observation sites, a forecast location, regional map cities (screenshots are preferred), and radar cities/highway symbols (again, screenshots are helpful), maybe I'll consider it. But right now, I must perform the transition/icon updates on my other XL configs, so it may be awhile before I get to you. I hope you'll understand, Krishnan.

EDIT: Oh, and for those who drive me nuts about the animating icons, MAYBE I'll post 20 second .wmv clips of all the animating icons I've made. I have about another 10 or so before I'm willing to do so though, and I have to let my tester verify them.

Ohhh. I can't wait.

Can I use these on my PowerPoint slides for videos like

this

?

I wouldn't get too excited about it. They're going to be over a black background, like

this

. They're really for viewing purposes only, but I suppose you could use them if you really wanted to. It won't turn out too good though.

D'oh.

I see what you mean now.

Yes I do, as long as you think I'M NOT ANNOYING

[Localonthe8s]

I don't understand how you being annoying has to do with maps with winter precip.

[LFMusicFan]

He's responding to that little paragraph I posted to him.

And Krishnan, that's the exact type of thing that will annoy me.

[LFMusicRocks]

EITHER WAY YOU THINK I'M ANNOYING ANYWAY!
