No problem..

Let me know after you checking your .imv file.

QuoteOK downloads no problem, in radar2 folder are currentor updated imv. images, but only one displaying from radar page is still local radar, all others when tapped remain blank. When I changed the path in the imv. files I R-clicked on the imv. files went to properties and changed (open with) to Notepad to make the corrections and then saved them, is that OK.
Hollywood,
Did you remember to change the file path also in the skin / radar section..   Try this, go to the Top of the skin, and in notepad, do a "Find"..  Type in "storage card2"..  Each one that it finds, change to "program files"...  That should do it !!

The skin will also look in the \my documents folder for "radar.txt", and "Radar.exe"

I'm missing something here. Did you post a message on the city codes for the traffic script? Question
Instructions for Traffic Map & Traffic RSS Setup

1)  Start HERE !
2)  Find the Traffic Map for Your City !
3)  Make a note of the "3-Letter City Code" at the end of the URL at the top of your browser..  This is also used in the Traffic PHP Script for Traffic RSS !!
4)  Using This URL : http://fp.images.autos.msn.com/images/mymsn/COL_2.gif, replace the code in RED, with "Your" City Code..
5)  Copy the URL with your city code into the "Radar.txt" file for the Traffic Map Download !!
6)  Use the PHP Script for Traffic RSS;  http://todayplus.jhollin1138.com/rss/traffic_rss.php?metro1=COL, again replacing the City Code in RED, with your city code, and copy to the TP Config / RSS Tab !!

That's it !!  You are now setup for Traffic Map & RSS !!!!

That's IT!.  When I read the original thread in your note, it doesn't let me know WHERE to find the city code.  But you provided that here.  And I was wrong about my city code.  I was hoping it was FTW but NOOO!.  They gotta include all of DFW region.  That will make my file a bit larger.  :shock:   Thanks again.

Sorry for the great pause. I looked at the imv. files all are corrected to program files. I also did as zapme instructed and it found no instances where I did not make the change from storage card2 to program files. Are the corrections case sensetive? In skin I used (program files) in  imv. files I used (Program Files)

Can you upload your imv file here?  Maybe there is something we "under-look"...

hollywood

I hope this works. It says local but contains all five imv. files.

They looks fine to me..

Can you try these?

1) Run the radar.exe in /my documents/
2) After it finishes, go to /Program Files/TodayPlus/Images/Radar2 and check the time of the image files match the time of downloading or not.
3) If 1, and 2 are fine, then go to /Radar2? folder and tap any of .imv files to see you get the image display.

4) If they all go well, then go to Uniskin and try again.

Let us knoe what do you see and we can try to find where the problem might be.

Ran exe. in my docs. downloaded fine ,went to radar2 imv. files on radar pic shows they were within the last 20 min. they open fine in radar2 image veiwer runs and displays image, but still nothing appears on radar page of skin when any radar icons are tapped except local, it appears just fine.

Sounds like the codes in the skin were not correct.  Can you find these codes and post them here?  Or you also can upload here.

Here is my skin file.
