In your code you should add a test if
WeatherCurrent.code = 3200
3200 is the unknown code, this code is sometimes given for certain locations.
And in this case, in the Sub SetMainPage routine, line
imgCurrent.Image=AppPath & "\themes\" & INI.themeDir & "\conditions\" & WeatherConditionImages(WeatherCurrent.code)
generates an error.
There does also exist a condition code 0 (tornado), you shoud add an image 0.jpg for this code.
The images in your last version look nicer to me than those from the nws.
Didn't you have a link for their images in your first post ?
Best regards.

Hi Klaus - thanks for the feedback and finding the bugs - I'll get those added to the next release.
I haven't decided exactly how to let the user find their location id yet. I am thinking of added a new program form with agraham's webbrowser library and inserting the Yahoo page (there doesn't seem to be a web service available) and to capture the result.
The original icons (before I grabbed the Yahoo icons) I think I got from here:
Weathericons - Weatherstation Salo, Halikko, FI. I was going to go back and put together a post on how to change the theme and weather icons.
