Re: Using Weathercode properly
When using a weather code, make sure you're using the code from the RSS feed, not just the url after you type in your address.
Copy the whole RSS feed and replace that one.
Some weatherskins are outdated and do not have the updated url. (The prefix to the website has changed on many sites.)

Re: Using Weathercode properly
I'm not a fan of weather.com...
But. Go here: http://www.weather.com/weather/rss/subscription/
Then type in your zip code for the Local Weather option.
Then... click xml? I think you use that one.
Yahoo! Weather:
Go to weather.yahoo.com and type in your zip code.
And click the RSS button, towards the top-middle-ish right.
Copy that url and replace the old one with it.

Zero at programing, zero at writing codes, so far 2 at making images
But I'm good at copy/paste, and I not always like this
