first on fox 18 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 We have some new graphics on Channel 4 Action News .... take a look tonight and tell me what you think. Thanks! via Andrew Stockey on Facebook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trev57 46 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 That's pretty interesting considering that the new graphics weren't supposed to start popping up around the country until later this year from what I've heard. But they do look pretty nice. EDIT: From what I've seen (on their mobile website at least) the L3s are still basically the same as what's at every other Hearst station, but the fullscreens are completely different from anything I've seen. Odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trev57 46 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Maybe he lied! http://www.wtae.com/...827/detail.html Yup, that's the fullscreen I saw. Is that new or has it always been that way on WTAE? And I guess they are slightly modified, given that the L3s fade to blue on both the left and right, rather than just the right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weeters 1811 Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 That fullscreen on the website appears to be from archive. The open seen in the final few seconds of the video, though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

susquvalleywgal 494 Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 From video I seen on WTAE.com looks like they got the same gfx package WGAL got a few weeks ago. Same L3's, same full screen ... didn't see the OTS, but I bet it is the same. I think it's a little different that WGAL gets the package first before WTAE, but I'm not complaining. Also, looks like WTAE got a new iPad app out with the new design of the websites that are rolling out. I find it interesting that the iPad app comes out BEFORE the website. -- matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weeters 1811 Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 My sources indicate the new graphics won't be ready until Fall. Enjoy these updates, I guess. They won't last too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I'm saying. Why are these stations even bothering? :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJTWX 2 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I saw the "new graphics" tonight. They aren't bad. The L3s are the same. The open is a bit different, though. Weather Watch 4 got "new graphics" as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tylert 1 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Can't say I'm a fan of this update. When the L3 yellow glow animates, a "swoosh" sound plays. And the news opens aren't very good either. Hopefully this fall graphics update makes its way to WTAE and is better than this refresh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCA TK47 274 Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Anybody know if KCRA going to get the package? I see they are using a different design based off their 'Night Team' graphics: http://youtu.be/KFNGMJopOCQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
