Ok Dreamers. I need advice.
Saturday, July 9, 2011 by Pizentu | Discussion: Animated Wallpapers
I am looking for advice on how to improve on my latest dream "Midnight Drive". https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/dream/3596/
I am wanting to make it good enough to reach the gallery. Since I have no clue why it was only given a 1 star rating, I am asking for your opinions. It is 100% original. I have not seen a dream like it here or any other sight. Any help would be appreciated. Thanx.

Your loop needs work, it's not seamless.
I agree with Karen on her comments and would add that the speed is too slow for a car and you should use a broken white line instead of the solid yellows.

If it was smoother it would be great. Right now it's "jerky"

I really like the concept you have going. Here's what I would do to make it better.
1. The loop of the fog doesn't transition well when it blends from the end back to the beginning. It "jumps" - which isn't realistic.
2. The moon is too clearly defined. Telescopic photographs of the moon look like that, but to the naked eye, the moon is a little more blurred, with less detail.
3. If we were actually driving at night, the hills on the horizon would bump slightly up and down -- they wouldn't stay static and smooth, as if we were staring at a picture; they would jiggle a bit due to the vibrations of being in a car.
4. The yellow lines in the road -- same thing as in #3 -- they wouldn't stay consistently center vision, because no matter how good of a driver you happen to be, the car moves around slightly in the lane, so visually the entire panorama would shift slightly due to the movement of the car.
Hope this helps.
