Howdy cloudspotting friends! Our journey of building a website and other accompanying resources to help make cloud identification a more fun and accessible hobby is always a work in progress, but today we’re announcing an exciting milestone. We’re happy to bring you the release of three cloud identification posters that we’ve designed and can be purchased through our shop along with some updates and improvements to the functionality of our website.

Introducing Our Cloud Identification Posters

Over the past several months, we’ve been conceptualizing, designing, and with the help of our local print shop, printing three cloud identification posters which are now ready to be introduced to you below.

The Six Steps to Cloud Classification

‘The Six Steps to Cloud Classification’ poster, listed in our shop as the cloud classification poster, is a 24×36 print that contains all 126 cloud type and subtype illustrations that you’ve seen on our website or Instagram account. The print is organized, laid out, and color-coded in such a way that will make it easy to compare the differences between cloud types, species, varieties, etc.

The Cloud Identification Chart

‘The Cloud Identification Chart’ poster, listed in our shop as the cloud identification poster, is an 18×24 print that contains and infographic and information about each cloud type. The poster is then accompanied by a chart that organizes and displays what cloud types are paired with which subtype.

The Ten Different Types of Clouds

‘The Ten Different Types of Clouds’ poster, listed in our shop as the cloud types poster, is a 36×24 print that highlights the ten main cloud types. This poster was designed specifically as an educational piece and as an introduction to the fundamentals of cloud identification.

A WhatsThisCloud.com Website Renovation

Over the past handful of months, efforts were put into the our website to provide you with a better experience. So we’re finally happy to announce the relaunch of the new WhatsThisCloud website. Below are some highlights of what’s changed.

Redesign. The website now has a much more appealing look from top to bottom. Maybe you’ve already noticed it isn’t as clunky as it used to be. There have also been improvements made to several resources such as our cloud identification guide as well as the downloadable cloud identification chart.

Improved navigation. It should be easier to find your way around the site, especially from your phone. Maybe you’re reading this from your phone or iPad now. Hopefully that’s the case!

Updated images. Every cloud type, species, variety, supplementary feature, accessory, and other kind of cloud has its own unique page, which means 54 individual pages. Each page has on average four example photographs as well as illustrations and other information relating to the cloud being featured.

Shop addition. As discussed above, we’re excited to release a new shop where you can purchase items relating to cloud identification. Woo!
