Unexpected technical problems

 Though not the most serious thing the web site uses various icons which automatically change if rain starts etc.
Some of these were custom ones I liked and somehow in Weather Display you could change the default ones to your own.
Or you used to be able to I think that might now be a premium feature in fact it might have been premium for a while but mine was happily using custom ones until one day a week ago when we had a brief trip out power cut due to wet snow on lines I think.
When it was all restarted the icons were default set and no amount of backtracking using stored settings file resolved it.
The default ones are OK but seemed crude compared to my nicer ones some I'd made myself.
However I now have quite a nice webcam. It was dirt cheap about £20 and that's uploading anyway so I set that as weather icon.
It doesn't show much at night, though if moon is out there is an image of sorts as it is quite good in low light.
That's on the main page only - if you go to internal pages it shows the 'current weather' icon from default set.
