So, sometime in the past week or so, I was bitten by a tick, and now I have a nice large red mark on my leg, and I have to take some antibiotics for Lyme Disease. Apparently this particular antibiotic makes patients very prone to severe sunburn, which is not good for one who works outside, like myself. I need to get the prescription changed.

It seems like there is some delay tonight while starting the LF music. At the start of every LF, you can normally hear the music for a brief second before the IntelliStar narration kicks in, but tonight, there it has been completely silent before the narration.

I uploaded two tunes today and the quality on youtube is horrible.  Can you not post high quality audio anymore?

You may have to wait for some time while YouTube processes the high quality versions of your videos. It all depends on how busy YouTube's servers are at the moment.

PS: Might I suggest making the "no new posts" image a lighter shade of gray? It's a bit confusing, making me think there's new posts when there aren't, as only the bottom part of it changes when there's new posts.

I agree 100%.

Here's a "light" version of it that I just modified:

Well shifting back to the subject of rarely seen icons for a moment, has anyone seen the one fore Sawyer there? I've seen the rain/fog icon many times, but this one looks new for some reason 

I believe that's actually Drizzle/Fog.

Everything Else TWC / Re: New Pillarboxes?

« on: June 09, 2010, 10:44:26 PM »

Well this is odd. For some reason, they're not broadcasting Weather Center in 16:9, so they're adding pillarboxes to the screen. Thing is, is the "blurred background" really an idea for a new pillarbox of sorts?

A lot of HD stations do that when the source is in SD.

Yea. Was the entire show like that? Perhaps they are still adjusting things in getting rid of the sidebar

The segment about that pier was recorded in SD. There may have been other segments of that report that were recorded in HD, so for the SD portions, the editors used those special pillarboxes instead of just leaving them black.
