0 DoubleJ Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 GREAT JOB!!! The first one was cool and this one is 100 times better. I love the extra info in the current conditions and the 10 day forcast is cool (although, what weather report is good to 10 days?:D). Great job!

0 sumokadet Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 Hey great work - but couldn't you add some of the rest of the world (Particularly Denmark, Copenhagen in Europe) and an ability to display the degrees in celsius, otherwise you have done a fantastic job - thumbs up!...

0 curniac Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 I really like this app when you released Beta 1. Beta 2 is a great improvement, on an already great app. Keep up the good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 BroChaos Veteran Posted February 11, 2002 Veteran Share Posted February 11, 2002 does anybody else's stop responding randomly? i'm pretty sure it happens when i leave a 3d game, but i'm not positive why this would do it, it's just what i've noticed. cheers, joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Matrox Posted February 11, 2002 Author Share Posted February 11, 2002 Opps....The Locations that started with "V" were left out of the Canada list. Sorry for this. Below are the Location Codes for them. You will have to enter them manually. This will be fixed in Beta 2.1. Please list the Countries you would like to be added. It takes some time to add them.

0 Matrox Posted February 11, 2002 Author Share Posted February 11, 2002 I need some help. I would like to get the weather icons to be transparent with no white around them, but I am no good at this kind of thing. There are around 135 pictures total. Also I need some help indexing the Country places and location codes. If anyone can help me out please PM me. Thanks -Matrox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Alien Venom Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 Matrox I have a bunch of ideas for the program that you may or may not like.
