By the way, the w in weather is not capitalized in "Local weather ID"

Thanks! 

I know the W in Weather is not usually capitalized, but I kinda liked it the way I put it.

I don't have Photoshop so i have the AM and PM XL tags and RapidShare sucks.

Just this week, I've done another addition to the WS4000 BETA concept: a "Weather Bulletins" slide.

Keep in mind that all weather data is simulated...except for the regional forecast for Saturday, the 36 Hour Forecast, and the Extended Forecast (as of 11:00PM CST Friday 11/21/2008).

I did my revisions of my IS Blackbar emulator by adding the 24-hour forecast...and did version 3 with the web friendly icons.

There will be more to come.

Now that another DCCCD college campus has opened in Coppell, I went and updated the emulators with the current and web-friendly icons to include Coppell. Another tweaking I did was to make it a similar format to DirecTV and Dish Network's LDL prior to June 2008.

Here's my take on the Daypart Forecast:

Well why does the rapid share does not let me download and you have to reupload does files but use the uploader on this site.

If nobody downloads a file from rapidshare for x amount of days, then the download is removed... If you want him to reupload them, I would recommend contacting him privately through PM, unless he specifically says don't PM him.

[sunlightreport]

Well i did PM him and now will start it.

An idea just popped into my head this week: A couple years ago, the OnSpot Digital Network is installed at all Simon Property-owned malls including the Irving Mall. All the time they were showing news, sports, TV clips, and advertisments; they never show weather and/or traffic. So I thought, "Why not add TWC HD to the mix?"

Here's my concept on TWC forecasts shown to mall goers (See attachments). The temperatures are color-cordinated to match the color legend (shown on National Forecast high & low maps).

Any comments and suggestions are welcome.

Love the idea, Love the pictures

We know many of us can customized our weather.com page, but what if we get to choose which icons set to use? This idea comes from the Weather Underground website, where members get to customize their icons from there.

I've screencapped the weather.com website and made 3 different copies (the other 2 I cropped to buttons) and have blanked out the segment from the Navbar down. I then put 8 different versions of the "Partly Cloudy" icon and here's the end result:

Icon #7 is not NBCU's...a guy named Wojciech Grzanka owns it.

I think this would be a great idea!

I didn't know that. I always thought they were NBC's. Thanks for pointing it out though.

On Thursday, a dryline has swept through the North Texas area, bringing in some dust from West Texas. Some smoke mingled in with the dust as wildfires break out from Bowie to Southwest of Weatherford. I went and took a few pictures of the hazy conditions and decided to pick this one of the Las Colinas area from the 3rd Floor of my apartment complex.

I then added some elements such as the Yellow Lower Thirds, some icons, and the Black LDL.

Until I can get the real deal, here's my attempt at the new "Local On The 8s" bug for DirecTV & Dish Network.
