hmm, not sure what issues you're running into?
my best guess is you had a look at Nuka's mod for Confluence?
that one scared the heck out of me too.
if that's the case, just leave that one be and start fresh.
it's really just as easy as skinning the regular weather page,
you just have a lot more infolabels to play with.

Heh yeah he made a mess of that and I have started from scratch with a different design and about half done don't think I'm going to bother with the "Alerts" section though

BTW this addon has no Icon.png on my install maybe you could add one at some point to make it a proper addon

Yes, this addon has no Icon.png.
This addon is just supposed to provide a lot more infolabels for skinners to make their own weather screen more powerful, and there are many skins that already have great weather icons.
Anyway, thanks for using this addon!

you could always use the default one and add a + sign on it

Oh! I thought the Icon.png meant weather icons.
Sorry for that, Jezz_X! and thanks ronie!

Regarding Alerts - joebrady - 2011-05-26 15:17
Jezz_X: The only weather alerts I'd like in XBMC are severe weather "Warnings" (not watches or advisorys, they get a little old and repeatative) that pop up during playback (which of course some would hate, so it would need to have a toggle) But we've had an rough spring here weather wise, and I've found myself watching movies and having to pause every now and then to switch over to the weather station to see if the next big storm is getting close, or if there are any tornado warnings issued for my area.
Who knows, something like that could actually save a life.
