My Weather

Can anyone tell me how to change the default satelite picture in "images" in My Weather to a satelite image of the UK or my area (folkestone) rather than the default picture of germany? I have gone into MP config and changed the URL but its still showing a satelite image of germany?? thanks

Configuration.exe -> Weather -> Add City

Then type in your city name and click search, select the most appropriate and you'll then be able to type in the URL or path to the image file you want to use.

Common used URLs are listed in http://forum.team-mediaportal.com/we...uk-t10001.html

I use a script to grab the satellite and other images from the BBC weather site, instructions are here http://forum.team-mediaportal.com/uk...cs-t10185.html

My weather config is attached for info.
