Looks great!!! Loads pretty quick too considering the amount of data content!

Looks Great! I really like it.

Axelvold · « **Reply #3 on:** January 25, 2009, 05:30:34 PM »

Thanks

what do you think is best, to open it in a new window (as it is now) or to open it within the framework?

W Thomas · « **Reply #4 on:** January 25, 2009, 05:37:29 PM »

Personally I prefer the new window with a way to
get back to your main site... Just my $.0002

Would look great either way

Very impressive, but the yellow text is too hard to read, and it couldn't hurt to indicate where the data is coming from.

I will fix that, thanks for the feedbaxk btw, did the background picture load? (great wall of china)

i have added two links on my website, one that opens the flash page in a new window and one that opens it inside the frames.

If you could check and tell me what is the best to use i would be very glad.

Same comments about the yellow, cant read. But it appears to load black, but only for a millisecond prior to turning yellow.

No great wall of china on my screen. I dont recall it from last night. weatherflash looks bad in general on work pc, not sure if it loads everything here.

Lars, not quite sure whether it's my computer, but the five dials appear to be egg shaped and not round.

Anyone else have the same problem?

mackbig · « **Reply #12 on:** January 28, 2009, 08:08:45 AM »

I think that is a "feature" of flash. My default view was a bit oval (width wise). I resized the window, got them to be round, then I got them to be oval (height wise). All aspects of the page do this, even text...

I think it has to be what resolution the page is created in, i have 1400x900 on my screen

Andrew, what resulotion do you have?

mackbig · « **Reply #14 on:** January 28, 2009, 10:57:38 AM »

Lars
I am running 1280 by 1024 at work.

I only said "a bit" definitely not egg shaped. I would not even have noticed/commented had it not been mentioned.
So I would not change anything on your site.

Thats ok Andrew, I will see if i could fix it in some way

jjocsak · « **Reply #16 on:** March 31, 2009, 06:16:07 AM »

Just a thought, how about making the text in the wind direction dial a different color than black?
A little hard to see on my monitor, that is.

The text should be yellow in all the instruments, is it only the wind direction that have black text, or is it in the other as well?

jjocsak · « **Reply #18 on:** March 31, 2009, 08:52:59 AM »

All the others are yellow.

very strange, because I have the same settings on all instruments.

What browser are you using?

Because in mine IE7 all the text is yellow, Anyone else that has noticed this?

mackbig · « **Reply #20 on:** March 31, 2009, 09:23:56 AM »

FF3 all text is yellow but the wind direction but the background is sunset.
