Ok, so after the problems with a jump at that loop point for this video, decided to separate the animation in background and of the soldier into separate layers the play with time stretching to make them line up. so it worked and got rid of the jitter/jump when video loops so it is smooth, but now have a new issue just as bad/distracting, it is very difficult to rotoscope the soldier, (cut him out of background) as the software has a hard time with the dark hard to see edges on the dark background, so now the soldier has a morphing around his body edges from the Rotoscope jumping around trying to find the edges, Even with me doing most by hand it is just too much. So calling it quits on the Looping Animated background for this particular project. But non animated stationary desktop backgrounds I may still work on.

I could do a photoshop job, but not an animated one as I can not get it to look good enough in the loops for this particular project at this time. If you still want a stationary regular wallpaper that would be fine.

Desktop for gwa2003, Have both an animated version and still version, just added a live flame to the repair tool, thats as animated as it gets on this one, but loops perfect. I have download links for both the still and animated version in the youtube description. if you have dream scene on your pc, just download the video onto you pc and right click on it then choose set as desktop background. If you do not have dream scene, google it, I think it is a free program.
The video one is set for wide screen, I can not get it to fit my crt monitor, let me know if it displays correct on your wide screen monitors or not.

Ya, it seems that for some odd reason for me, and maybe you as well, the animated desktop will not "FIT TO SCREEN".

on any wall paper, you can go to preferences for your desktop background and choose, Fit To, Tile, Fill etc, I have the same options when using the animated desktop but it does not apply. I am not sure why. I have downloaded many animated desktops from the net, most in HD and they fit to my screen exactly like they should regardless of what res I am using, and I am on a square CRT monitor. I will have to do some investigating to figure out what I need to change for future projects.

Also I just upgraded today to CS6, the latest version of Photoshop and After effects, it has many new powerful features, so hoping I will be able to take advantage and make better stuff. I know there are a lot of great Video Intro Templates I could not use before because they were made with a newer version of the program than what I had, but now should be able to play with them.
