That is because the image is updated dynamically... Just like the weather!

Look at the time at the bottom of the pic then look again in 10 minutes.

edit: looks like that one is refreshed at 6 min intervals.

Cheers,
Hymee.

I guessed this was the case Hymee, I have obviousy down loaded the URL link with the image (I also thought the mods were playing around with it!)

But I've got the admit the UTC has thrown me off a bit. I take it reflects the time...but it looks like its out by about 12 hours.....?

The time shown is as you said UTC which is just the time at the Prime Meridian where the time of day begins. So you 12 hour is correct atm (we are in Daylight Saving atm) but we are technically GMT/UTC +10.

Yep. I thought enforcers might know that!! GMT aka UTC aka Zulu. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinated_Universal_Time

EDIT: LOL - I love how the English wanted "CUT" and the French wanted "TUC", so they compromised on UTC. ROFLMAO!!! (read link)

Cheers,
Hymee.

OK I am still bored and rather than pic on Gen Y I went looking for a comedian someone recommended. Found himon YouTube...

If you are up for politically incorrect then have a look for Russell Peter. Absolutely histerical! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqn9rXu1TCM
