Small tweaks I am happy to do - and have been doing - as they don't add a lot to the 2-3 hours a day I already spend on Cumulus-related activities. But I no longer have the enthusiasm or the time to do any larger changes.

And I for one am very grateful for all those you have done. I think we'll all keep our fingers crossed that your enthusiasm returns. I know what you mean. My enthusiasm for flight simulation ebbs and flows but deep down it will always be there.

Snowing here.

It's horrible here today but compared to Sanday it's probably like the Med! Hope you don't have to dig yourself out!

Tom- Can I suggest you make your WU banner be clickable, and direct to your WU page, and also put a url link to your website. If you need help in your User control panel, just ask. It can be tricky.

I messed around with my WU banner awhile ago, and everything I tried produced a string that was too long. I'd welcome the assistance!

Try this:

Feel free to take out the sun_1.gif image. That was a freebee :lol:

However, if your website ever goes down, that sun_1.gif won't show. It's what I do to show if my website is "online". (see the image below?). My website is run on my own server, if it goes down, on this forum (and on emails I send), I will know if my website is online or not. Probably something you don't need. So choose whether you want that pic or not (probably not eh?)
Anyway, all the works done for you, copy and paste into your control panel/profile/signature.

Thanks! It's interesting that Wunderground automatically converted the readings to metric when you did your cut/paste. I converted them back to English. Thanks again for the help!
