UPDATE (04/15/2008)

  • Added mouseovers containing detailed forecast to TODAY/TONIGHT and TONIGHT/TOMORROW icons on “Current” page
  • Added wind direction to the mouseovers and Feels Like for hourly tub on “Current” page
  • Added dates to the “Daily” page
  • Updated moon phase icons

Download it HERE.

Still seems to be a periodic problem with the location of the Update banner at the bottom of the Detailed forecast window and a problem with the top part of the window’s main forecast icons.

My keeping the WW window as tight as possible could play a role in the Update banner’s location problem. But it’s not a consistent problem.

The icon problem appears to be due to my name for the icons I like.

63

The part of code for the bottom banner is Valid HTML 4.01 Transitional which I verified, so blame IE and its rendering of HTML :cool:

Good job!

I notice that some of your wind direction arrows look the same (example, SSE and ESE look the same)

I decide to use my own “wind” icon. Feel free to use it if you like.

Great job with the moon phase icons!

After you perfect your skin, you might want to include an option to rotate the moon image by 180 degrees to reflect how the moon looks in the southern hemisphere.

Beautiful skin. Thank you.

redhotpaprika, if you get a chance change line 50 of functions.js
from

goodPath = goodPath.replace("hiny/", "hiny/large/");[/code]to[code]goodPath = goodPath.replace("/Shiny/", "/Shiny/large/");

Current it doesn’t work with my “Eds Shiny” icon set. :wink:

Trust you meant “Freezing” mark at 0 degrees C/ 32 degrees F (Hot is more arbitrary)

Great stuff.

No, I meant what I meant.
“Freezing” (which means “extremely cold” according to the Collins dictionary) icon is supposed to appear at 0 F / -18 C or below.
And of course both hot and cold marks are totally arbitrary, based on my personal perception of the temperature.
I hope to figure out later how to make this thing optional, I haven’t even looked into it yet…

Glad you are enjoying the skin!

73

Very nice skin, Thanks!

(although I miss the thermometer a little bit)

74

Absolutely superb skin - I swapped as soon as I found it after using Ed’s soup skin for years. Simple and very clear design, I love the weather icons too (I do hate Vista though).

I do, however, have two suggestions:

  1. Tray icon skins (Shiny - tooltip skin) - Partly/Mostly cloudy during the night in particular: The clouds cannot be easily distinguished from the moon, hence my suggestion for the moon to be a bit lighter (white/light yellow).

  2. I agree with what was posted above - I also miss the thermometer (it could even be incorporated as another -3rd - ‘dial’ together with the wind speedometer/barometer or it could be placed on the far right where there is space).

75

UPDATE (09/27/2008)

  • Added “Settings” button for managing “hot” and “freezing” icons
  • Changed “Weekend” icon on the “Daily” page

Download it HERE.

Thank you for allowing my Eds Shiny icons to work. =D> And I like the Weekend icon change.

When I view the Moon forecast at the bottom of the Current Forecast page the New Moon image is broken.

I updated my skins yesterday, precipitous on them no longer being on RapidShare. Did you find that problem also? I wonder if RapidShare changed their 90 day usage policy.

77

Could you please post a screenshot? My new moon icon looks fine…

I didn’t know that, I’ll change the hosting source then.

78

Sorry, I didn’t notice the New Moon images for the other dates.

I don’t know why you aren’t seeing what I see.

The missing image is named -1.png. You need to add 1 to the WW [DAILY MOON ICON] moon tag value not subtract one.

I didn’t say they did, I’m just wondering if they did.

79

Change line 549 in current.wtp from:

                                  moonicon = Number(moonicon)-1;

to
moonicon = Number(moonicon)+1;

and the forecast works fine. :wink:
