They just fixed he radar on my end. But the loop doesn't work it's just the same frame.

Yeah, it was fixed, at the same time I received some unrequested updates.

Guess thats what you get for continuing to request changes. Should have left things alone

Martin, I didn't realize it would screw up the rest of the config. I now know I shouldn't have made that request, but it's too hard dealing with this for months now.

So the radar has been out since 1:30 PM EDT today, and it has messed with some of the flavors. I noticed at 1:38, that the regional CC made an appearance (which does not happen on that flavor for Intellistars with the AQ forecast)... and also that the sat/rad must be completely out. An extra school day forecast screen has made an appearance on the :29 longform and on the 1:48 LF. Also, for anyone who has not seen how something like this would affect the bigger LDL (I haven't)...

Hmm, "Eminence Front" by The Who at :38, which still sounds plain on my Intellistar

Wow, "Run Like Hell" by Pink Floyd at :50. Great list this morning!

Hey...why is it that the exact same post from Aaron randomly jumped from before Ana's post to after her post?

I reposted it. This whole deal about how I stretch my videos got a little annoying.

Neat cloud formations from the Sparrow Parking Garage on Monday nite...









And while the sun project is over, the sun appears to be moving out of this photo now. It will only continue to move to the north...


Oh, and I forgot to post this. Sparrow has a communications tower on top of the main hospital tower. No idea why I seem to be so fascinated with it, but I caught video of it making a change...

This sounds like the traditional one minute flavor on the XL with a bulletin. I caught it up in Grayling last May.

I have one question...why do you stretch your videos to 16:9? I know the videos are recorded in 4:3 but you use the yt:stretch=16:9 tag. I don't mean anything by this, but it looks weird.

I like it a lot better, actually. I can't figure out how to get my clips in widescreen, nor am I redoing nearly 600 videos.

So excited... it looks like I will be touring my NBC affiliate's studio in the coming weeks!

Neat! I could very easily tour mine as I've been by it on the south side hundreds of times, but then again, I don't know if they give tours.

Sunset picture on my Windows 7 laptop!

You obviously stole that idea from me

I didn't steal anyone's idea.  I've been photographing beautiful weather scenery like that since June 2009.

I think he was just kidding about how you are using your pics as desktop wallpaper

Yes, thank you Martin. I thought I was conveying that in my post.

Speaking of Cinco De Mayo, anyone heard of the show "How'd You Get So Rich"? TV Land has been advertising for months that the second season will premiere on Cinco De Mayo. Supposedly the episode on tonite is about Donald Trump, which should be interesting to see.
