Sorry all the following is the original size. Perhaps Jiminy would you see if you can copy it?

Douglas, it does work for a download, as does your other one.

Here's what we're hoping you have:

If you worked from the link in peeperita's post ("original size" below her edit), then you'll have it. If you saved her posted one at 500x375 pixels, then the quality will degrade fast as others follow with their edits. Not sure what to suggest if that's the case, other than what you said - go from peeperita's 1024X768.

Thanks Jiminy...I hope Gwen can copy it now. I seem to have caused a lot of trouble...sorry. In any event it's a good game!! Douglas

I overlayed one of my lightning storm from my file about 30% opacity
Erased the rest picture and made the clouds a little dramatic and made it look like that the rain is coming down

Douglas, it's only a game/challenge, and we learn from our missteps. I did three things wrong today, and now I know better. With luck, I may do better tomorrow. You play these games well. This one just needs that one thing - using the larger-sized version each time - to make it work best. I'm really glad you keep playing.

Used this photoshop process. (Create background layer, Add a new layer fill with black. Create 150% noise (monochromatic is checked off). Add Gaussian blur 0.5 radius. Hold alt and click on line between black layer and background layer. Go to levels and adjust colour to 134, 1, 189. Go to motion blur. 60 angle 50 pixels long. Change layer style to screen.)
