I don't really like those rounded maps to begin with. Why can't they just use one banner for everything, like pre-2003?

The way that the rounded maps animate in is really cool, IMO.

I completely agree... I really like them. Not your "average" weather map.

I really like the "rounded" maps. Their animation is very neat, too. Why doesn't PM Edition use them?  :huh:

They haven't used them the past few days, IIRC.

I really like watching PM Edition HD. Right before commercial breaks, they often show neat views of the studio, and I wish I could just pause the TV when they show them. :P

Yeah, there are a lot of cool shots from that studio setup. Maybe I'll post screencaps sometime.

I'm sorry if this has been discussed before (not a TWC HD Geek) but how come the LDL doesn't appear during national programming on TWC |HD| ?

That's because the HD STAR hasn't been released yet. ;)

Is he talking about the Satellite STAR or WeatherSTAR HD?

Even for satellite customers? The LDL only appears during the satellite lf
