			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="teaser">Outside 1.2 just went live! Retina support graphics and Free notifications for everyone. Update through the App store now.</p>
<p><a class="nohover" href="http://itunes.apple.com/app/outside-visual-weather-forecast/id333195276?mt=8" target="_blank"><img class="frame1" src="http://pixelresort.com/img/outside12.png" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>We thank everyone for your patience, we can&#8217;t begin to describe how long we&#8217;ve actually been working on this. We had to rebuild the entire app (not just the ton of graphics) to accommodate the higher resolution artwork and animations. This basically meant starting from scratch and creating Outside all over again.</p>
<p><br/></p>
<h3>Crisp Retina Graphics</h3>
<p>Outside now features fantastically detailed high resolution art to make your inner weatherman see things more clearly. </p>
<p><br/><br />
<img class="frame1" src="http://pixelresort.com/img/outside12retina.png" alt="" /><br/></p>
<h3>Free Notifications</h3>
<p>What happened to the Notification Subscription? After months of crunching the numbers and reorganizing the servers, we&#8217;ve decided to shoulder the cost of offering custom notifications &#8211; We thank everyone who have supported the subscription service, know that it&#8217;s because of you that we are now able to offer the service for free. Hopefully enabling thousands of people to start setting up custom notifications and using the system less restrictively.</p>
<p><br/></p>
<p><img class="frame1" src="http://pixelresort.com/img/outside12notif.png" alt="" /><br/></p>
<p>We hope you enjoy this much awaited update, as always <strong>5 star reviews on itunes</strong> or a simple tweet are a tremendous help in keeping the app alive. Thank you again for your patience, we know it&#8217;s been a long time coming but we hope you enjoy this latest installment of Outside.</p>
<p><br/></p>

<p>Here&#8217;s the complete changelog for 1.0.3:<br/><br/></p>
<p>✔ Added more units and the ability to mix them (like in UK). Set them in Preferences -> Unit System.<br />
✔ Fixed calendar issue. Updated data should update the calendar as well.<br />
✔ Only shows Today icon when the date matches today. This should be clearer for offline users.<br/><br/></p>
<p>To control notification sound volume, please use the volume buttons on your device.<br/><br/></p>
<p>Update now!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p class="teaser">We've snuck out another update for Outside. This is just a minor fix for a calendar issue that was going around.</p>

<p>Some Outside users have been experiencing what's best described as 'Calendar Lag' over the past few weeks. This was a bug introduced in the 1.0.1 update when we added offline support for weather data. It caused the calendar to sometimes be one or more days behind. This should be fixed in the latest minor update 1.0.2 - we're sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.  Go grab it now!</p>]]></description>

<p><br/></p>
<p>If you&#8217;re one of the originally affected users, you might get a lag the first time you launch outside after installing the new update. No worries &#8211; just reboot outside and hopefully that should be the end of the calendar lag</p>
<p><br/></p>
<p>If anyone is experiencing any problems with the new Outside update please let us know.</p>

Here&#8217;s the full Changelog for 1.0.1:<br />
<br/><b></p>
<p>✔   Snow Notification<br />
✔   Tap on calendar to quick jump back to current condition<br />
✔   Offline support for iPod Touch<br />
✔   Dew Point and Wind Chill in details view<br />
✔   300 days Notification subscription option<br />
✔   Works in China Again<br />
✔   Handles extreme temperatures<br />
✔   Fixed missing icons if Notifications is disabled in Settings (although you still need to enable Notifications if you want to use it)<br />
