b) made me feel seasick, I
better get a bucket ready for when I see a fullscreen forecast...
A long time ago the 3D revolution swept into gaming, with games such as Doom
bringing smooth scrolling 3D to the masses. One of the major complaints was
that people became seasick watching the graphics, not due to the gore but as
a result of the brain thinking you were physically moving when you weren't.

The new BBC graphics borrow heavily from gaming technologies and the smooth
scrolling, parallaxing effects were bound to cause problems with some
people, more especially those who've avoided playing 3D games until now!

It's one of those things that'll go away over time, the more you watch the
more used to it you'll become and eventually you'll no longer feel queasy.

Such is life - as always with new software/hardware/systems. We'll
have to give 'em time but let's keep our "observations" (complaints!)
going until they get it right.

Fortunately the "ships of Kittim" are coming to the rescue once mo

Thank goodness for the Yanks and their freedom of information. (I hope
George Galloway leaves a few of the buggers standing.)

Typical British reaction, let's find anything, anything at all to moan
about.
Anyone changing anything, is a real easy excuse to moan.

The beeb make make some fine adjustments to the weather presentation,
but those hoping they will revert back to the old system will be
disappointed, i'm happy to say

There's no turning back, i get the impression they are 100 percent
committed to the new system. People will have to get used to the idea
