Another "your opinion please" thread.

Hello Dear Fellow Authors

I have “only” 3 VH files so far and therefore i have little exoerience about “how, what, where” etc.

Please have a look at my newest file : http://videohive.net/item/high-energy-action-pack-3-audio-driven-templates/149933

I read many of the other treads where people are asking about low sales, and the answer was most of the time ” do something more unique”. As is realy tried to do my “own thing” as good as possible, i think this is not the problem here. Is it maybe the CS5 only ? The price ? The ( way to long in ) intro ?

I’m realy thankful for every of your ideas, as it took me about a month to create the template and 1 sale is realy not what i expected

Thank you and have a great day everyone

Okay here’s my thoughts..

I’m currently on my girlfriend’s computer and the internet connection speed is pretty low. Therefore it takes a while to load the preview and I had to wait pretty long time to see any actual footage from your templates.

I think that you should shorten the intro because as we all know people are usually pretty restless when surfing online It’s a fact that people usually leave a website if it takes too long to load.

I hope that this helps you!

Also a fact is that a lot more people are using CS3 /CS4 than CS5 .

Hello Guys

Thank you for your honest opinion ! I took the advantage and changed the preview of the file to a minimum. How is it with straming / bandwith on your side ? Does it take to long to load ?

Plus, does anyone know where does “pixelated” light’s / rays come from ? The transition from light to black is somehow very bad

Thanks again and i hope i can be of a help oneday for you as well

No problem! Everything seems fine now and the video loads smoothly. The “pixelation” you are talking about is called banding. You could try to work using a color depth of 16-bpc or 32-bpc. More about that and other techniques to reduce banding here:
