Just made this randomly, never really made anything accept a stickman so I tried this. Yes i know the stickman is way too small for the background, I just shoved it in there.

Harsh bitchy critisism is welcomed with open arms. :3

Ok, thanks :). What else have I screwed up?

Be as picky as you want people.

It was okay. But its the same basic background everyone uses, mountains.

True, which is expected for a first. Um, do you think slightly bluring the background will make it better? If so, I just convert it to a symbol and use the blur filter right?

By way in the back you mean the two back sets of mountains right?

Im reffering to the closest set as middle ground ,and the others background.

Some rocks in the foreground would be nice so the ground isn't completely flat. But the mountains look good

It seems like you need to follow your advice, make more inbetween frames.

Yeah, put rocks around the stick with shadows from the moonlight.
