General Discussion / Re: Your class schedule...

AFAIK, there is no such class called "advisory" here, nor has there been in any of the schools I've attended. I however am taking a simular class called individual studies. We do work, and kind of build relationships.

I just drink coffee the normal way I do as usual through my mouth

Then you're ingesting it.

My eyes have worsened (only a little though) since I first started wearing glasses in May 2003.

TWC Fan Art / Lower Thirds

« on: November 17, 2007, 03:04:12 PM »

I am currently working on a project that I started last week on designing the current lower thirds in Microsoft PowerPoint 2003. Yes I do know Tyler planned on doing this as well and he is still welcome to make his own, but I also wanted to do this as something to do when I have nothing else on the agenda.

After I make the regular one and two-line graphics, I might go into other lower third graphics too, such as the mini lower thirds and storm alert ones. BTW, I need to know if there are any free fonts that are at least similar to the logos for Weekend Outlook, Weather Center, and PM Edition. If you know any, please drop me a message. Thanks.

Anyway, I started with the easiest logos to make first, so here they are:

First Outlook

Day Planner

Evening Edition

Emulator Videos / Re: Billy's WeatherSTAR Emulaions

Nice work, Billy. When you place emulators on tape, it makes it look much closer to the actual unit. :sunglasses:

TWC Today News / Re: New Banner

I think he meant if you could make the site look like the format of the IntelliStar. That's my guess.

Programming and Graphics / Re: 1 Minute 30 Second Flavors

« on: November 17, 2007, 01:53:32 PM »

They should at least edit the 1:30 forecast to show regional maps. I think they should also remove the traffic segments on that forecast to make way for more weather related screens on this short flavor.

A lineup like this would be good:

Current Conditions
Regional Conditions
Regional Doppler
Local Doppler (when necessary)
Air Quality Forecast**
Daypart Forecast*
Today's/Tonight's Metro Forecast*
Today's/Tonight's Regional Forecast
Tonight's/Tomorrow's Regional Forecast
24-36 Hour Forecast
3-day Forecast

* These screens would be replaced with the local doppler when precipitation is present.
** If the Star doesn't have air quality screen, outdoor activity/schoolday forecast would show instead.

I was refering to the regional forecast map. I only see it if my traffic products aren't working, which is a very rare occurence. The regional conditions showing during one minute flavors isn't enough.
