Decided to try out the regional thing, I'm still working on the backgrounds where the icons and temps are at, they're kinda bleh right now, obviously...there is also incomplete data - not to mention incorrect data  :P



Oh wow! Where did you get those maps? I've been looking for something like that for a long time for my satellite LF creations..


Swift WX Professional :yes:

I used their blank map feature and screen captured the national map, northeast, south, midwest, and west.

I've been working on this for a couple of days...I'm still trying to figure out what I want to do with the blue area/space.

also - there is suppose to be a gradient effect behind the forecast boxes from the blue transitioning into the cloud picture, but it's sorta hard to see, but when they boxes aren't there, it's a nice effect.

i took that cloud picture btw. :P

Your Weather Today and Day Planner collide!

haha um obviously the graphics are still in the works...but surprisingly the DP music goes well with the YWT open.

Great job! B) Though, the color scheme for the graphics should be much darker; it reminds me more of Your Weather Today than Evening Edition. :biggrin:

Also, based on that LDL location I believe that opener came from Derek.

I've always wanted to do this, but I always knew that I'd fail...

is the cut out really that horrible? >_< I can't to seem to succeed when it comes to cutting people out in the GIMP.

It's not that bad... the only thing I'm seeing missing is the guy's left pinky finger... That's about the only thing that's missing. Otherwise, it's good!  :biggrin:
