I have to agree that I was a little disappointed with the set as well. The blue "faux texturing" reminds me of what FX did with the KOIN set. The primary backdrop with the K2 logo is also rather drab - they should have put one of their huge rear projection screens there instead. It really reminds me of the work FX did when they originally installed the KOIN set, it seems dated. Perhaps I had an unrealistic expectation, but upon hearing the new set would be built by FX, and looking at some of the projects FX has recently completed (even in smaller markets than Portland) this one is sub-par. I guess though, after looking at the temp. set for 2 months, this is way better! I concur that the new weather center is one of the better ones in Portland, although I still like KPTVs more. The lighting seems softer than the previous set, but I don't mind too much. At least KOIN now knows they don't have to try too hard to have the 3rd best set in town once they decide to remodel theirs.
