# Very nice
For me, it could do with being a teensy bit slower, also snow doesn't often come straight down like that, it's more fluttery....

# agree on both counts
but with the technique down, those changes are easy

Very nice, but what he said.

And have you considered having the snow on more than one layer, moving at different rates, to give it depth through paralax effect?

# hadn't thought of that, but its something I will try
proplem is file size due to frame numbers when you get much going. But fine idea for non-posting stuff

# Use narrower bands (e.g. full width, fraction of the height of the image) and repeat them vertically.
Then use different height blocks so you can move them at different rates and have them re-align (at least at the top) every n frames.
(Old 16-bit parallax scrolling cheat).

# It should use the same amount of frames if you do it right
