TWC Fan Art / Weather World.com

Ok, This is my idea of a weather website.
 It is essentially this : http://www.weatherdaddy.us/weatherdaddy/index.html But with fonts, graphics, and icons from the intellistar used from 2007-2013. More specifically 2010-2013. I am currently exploring different radars, since I know the real one used is impossible to use. I am very pleased with Baron's VIPIR and FasTrac, they have a similar style and look to TWC's previous radar. That is the website in a nutshell. It will include a 12-hour temperature and conditions forecast along with the typical 36 hour outlook, 7-day, almanac, record temps. I know absolutely nothing about doing any of this, but I'm still going for it even if i don't get anywhere. Another great feature of the site is that it will have a music option where I will include 2 tracks, but users can upload their own and have them on a repeating playlist, or no music at all.  I have created several logos you guys tell me your favorite. I am completely open and welcome to criticism, as long as its constructive. I am also open to changes to the site graphics and name. Heres a *VERY* rough draft of the site i drew on paper, excuse my awful artwork.

Local Forecast / Re: New song during local on the 8s?

While i've heard it and it is definitely not new, the video cc17926, and the video weather witness just posted were not it, the alternate winter storm coverage loop theme that TWC Kelby posted is what I heard, and to put it blatantly, its not new, just new to me. But I've heard almost every LOT8's song since the 2013 update. Except for that one. I even did a check list through the current list of songs on youtube and it wasn't in there.

The alternate theme was it exactly, that's the first time I've ever heard it.... I've heard the rest up to now, except for that one. Mystery solved I guess.

It's funny when you play both the song I put that sounds similar, and the alternate theme, they sound almost identical when played starting at 0:40.

I'm also still revising these so they aren't final, just some first drafts. Like the blowing snow will be more smooth and continued I was just seeing how it looked, like the thunderstorm icon is final because I spent a lot of time editing it and compiling it, but with a lot of the others I was just in a rush to get some together to show you guys.

Wow, thank you! I've been working on removing the backgrounds and although a lengthy process, the results I'm getting from photoshop and after effects are promising, but I'm not out of the woods yet. It's not impossible. Getting these icons is part of a way larger project I'm working on.... but I'll get more into that when I'm ready. Here's a few more, I'm trying to make the loops as perfect as possible.

I've been getting a lot of good ones like the fog and drizzle, blowing snow, the rain shower with a sun or moon (a.k.a scattered showers)

Here are a couple side by side for better quality.

It looks like they are crapily looped, this was a video, and as a full cycle gif the clouds and lightning were really screwed up, so I shortened it, the individual ones are 95% seamless, unless you slow it down and zoom in like 250% you can tell where i looped it.

I've been working on some Intellistar icons, and yes they are the 2010 ones. Before I post *a few of them* aka, 1 or 2. Just to show you guys, and see how they look. They are directly from recordings, but I placed them through an image editor and looped them into .gif files. They have backgrounds because of they way I compiled them, so they are not transparent. I just want to know id its ok? I will upload a video of a few of them, I am only able to get them to animate in PowerPoint or my generic photo viewer on my pc, which they lag in both, but when opened with internet explorer, Firefox, etc. they animate at a pretty decent speed. I would also like to state that they are not 100% crystal clear, for the most part they are anywhere from a 90-95%. Some are a little lower due to the quality of some of the recording I have. This is still a work in progress so I only have like a third of the whole available set....

Tell me what you guys think!

Once I have them all recorded, edited, and compiled, y next project is to remove the backgrounds, does anyone have any tips or suggestions on how to do it? If not I just figure it out eventually. I actually tried animating the icons by hand, but that was an overwhelmingly long process that didn't give a result I could be proud of.

I just put them all together in a video, if you'd rather listen to it online than download.
