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.
Every cloud has a silver lining...
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!

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!

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