The HD Star Like You've Never Seen Before!
« on: November 23, 2007, 11:10:11 PM »
Well, you all have seen my recent HD Star design, but one goes WAY beyond that. I'm even animating it in After Effects. Now, it's in it's infant stages, but I want to share it with you to get some feedback. What do you think... of the title banner; the LDL; the sidebar; animations; etc? Let me know. Thanks, and enjoy!

Alright, I've tweaked a few things... the CC data is all on one page; I've changed the LDL data slightly, so each piece of data displays somewhat quicker, and exits quicker; added a few things to the "sidebar," etc. And yes, I know, the "Conditions Nearby" page was intentionally left blank. I'm still cranking out a design for that one. ;)

Enjoy!

Zeeesh, tough crowd.  :P

Anyway, another, slight update... adding the local obs. And you'll notice, I've steered away from the traditional 8 obs, which allows for a slight comfort zone with all the recent headend consolidation. Again, Enjoy!

It never will be. It's not an auto updating emulator like the "4000." To be an emulator, it doesn't have to "auto update" at all - to emulate simply means to look alike. My designs are all just Photoshop/After Effects based.
