I also made the tabs...however the one on the PME Lowerthird isn't how i imagined it, so i'm still fooling with it to see how i can make it look better and not clash.

Programming and Graphics / Re: The background music during TWC programs

I am thinking about emailing TWC regarding information about the 05-08 music. AFAIK, Troika Design Co. composed the 05-08 YWT music.

they also did Weekend View, IIRC,

yes, san antonio has had it for about a year now.

More than a year, because one day I stayed at San antonio in Summer 2005 and they has Traffic Pulse.

i'm pretty certain we didn't get it in 2005...

I've not noticed the problem

Greatest thing that has EVER happened in my 12 years of being in school (except the week where we went for a 1/2 a day because of snow.)  The phone rang, my brother answered it, and he said KYLE COME HERE, so I went, and I was like "WHO IS IT?", he said he didnt know.
  Turns out..it was a recording from the school district, saying the new hours for 2008-09 year.  So, I listen, and they said Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri. 

So, Next year, there will only be 4 day weeks.  However, every other week, we will have everyday, but Wednesday, the day we have off every other week, will be shortened by 45 minutes.  Weird..but awesome.  But, school will probably run til mid June.  I checked the schedule, and it hasnt changed, but, the new schedule was just released today..so

But YEA..4 school days a week =)

i'll say it before, and i'll say it again...your school is crazy. i hate you.

I've seen several videos squashed, then weeks later are okay. Very odd...

I've never seen any video go from squished to not. The one's I've seen have been squished from day one and never changed. 

no, i'm saying that the video about the KENS 5 Newscast closing wasn't squished before, and suddenly it is.

you may have gotten it backwards

I've noticed this only on a few videos posted by a fellow named Dj0287. I am all but positive this has something to do with the way the video was encoded, and nothing (or little) to do with YouTube.

but that doesn't explain why the videos were normal sometime in the past, and suddenly are squished. though i'm not an expert at it, so how knows.

i was just asking is if it can be fixed, cause its annoying the heck outta me. lol.

there are definitely more videos i've seen squished, i thought it was a problem on my headend, but now i'm kinda glad it's not.

however, it wasn't like that before. i guess i should've mentioned that. so youtube definitely plays some role in a few of the posted videos being squashed in.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm only having the problem with that particular video that Tyler posted.

it's happened on other video's for me before...i'll post a link to one if i find one, and screen capture it just in case it works for you.

but on an important note - photobucket was hacked last night:

IMPORTANT! Photobucket.com problem read here:
Last night Photobucket.com DNS at register.com was hacked by malicious people that are trying to compromise our business!
We are in no way affiliated with such bad deeds and cooperate with photobucket in capturing these individuals.
They have pointed the domain photobucket.com to an account hosted on our systems!
We have blocked that and photobucked techs have restored the domain pointing to its original location!
ALL account information and pictures on photobucket.com are OK, please have patience!
Unfortunately the complete DNS replication usually takes 24-48 hours and during this time caches DNS records might still point to us!
The normal operation of Photobucket is restored and as soon as the replication is complete there should be no further such issues!
We would like to emphasize that we are in now way responsible for what happens with photobucket and all users bumping across our systems!
We are a legitimate web hosting company operating since 2003 and in no way tolerate such hacking attempts!
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us at abuse@zettahost.com!
Thanks for your patience and understanding!

EDIT by Stephen: Fixed your quote.

actually i caught the mistake and fixed it myself lol. i guess it was probably at the same time. but whatever hahaha.
