I really like how you took the design of the current ldl and changed the colors. NICE! lol. The only thing I could see is in the title bar the bottom of the text hangs off a little, everything else looks great.

Thanks, I shrunk the fonts a tad, so I don't think that will a problem anymore.

Sequence 01.flv

Made in After Effects, a few slides are not completely transitioned over such as day planner, outdoor forecast, metro maps, etc.

11pm Update - I made some more modifications to this emulation, the templates are not as transparent and I added a touch of more blue again to the gradient backgound. Also below is a rough draft of my weather bulletin page.

Not sure if this is a local or national thing, but a local ad played here about a local grocery store and after it went off the text forecast of the IntelliStar displayed.

This month will mark the IntelliStar's 3rd anniversary of the graphic background that debuted in October 2007, so I thought isn't it about time for a makeover? I kinda stayed with the basics of how it looks now, except the background is more blue and I added my custom made LDL to it as a bonus. All credit goes to Donovan for making the superb titlebar!

My concept


Compared to the original....

I love seeing my title bars in use. That is looking great!

Thanks to both of you for the positive feedback, If there's anything that you dislike or think needs improvements don't hesitate to say so. 

I worked on modifying some minors things like the sun in the far top right of the background, you can only see blurred sun rays now. I did this because I think the brightness of the sun would have been too distracting. I also included some pictures of the warning crawls I made.

Wii, and that's pretty much it. Not really a video gamer myself.

The same for me now, I never really have time to play video games anymore like I used to.

They're gradually going in the right direction, but they still have an awfully LONG way to go. Like Kyle said, I was sure more long form programming would be on this new schedule, but to see some of it being reduced was surprising to me.

I do, I caught it during a Severe T' Storm Warning the other day, I think the Hurricane Earl LOT8's was shown afterwards. 

Do you have it uploaded by chance?

Martin's flooding pictures were shown at 9:35 PM! Good job Martin! 

Thanks

Does anyone have a clip of the Local Forecast opener that says Due to severe weather in your area, regular scheduled programming has been exempted?

Just for the record, Alexandra's bio page is still available on the TWC website:
http://www.weather.com/tv/personalities/Alexandra-Steele.html

It's probably gonna be a while before they pull her bio down. Betty Davis has been gone for almost 3 months and I noticed her bio was still up last week.

Kim better watch out, she could be next...

Id say Vivian is on higher stake cuz Kim had her proposal on air and Vivian has not been in any form of advertising nor specials on TWC 

No offense, but what does her on air proposal have to do with her chances of not having her contract renewed? Both of them would be at the same risk. I only said Kim as a joke because she had blond hair up until the last year and half.
