It's because of the horizontal gradients. I tried using a non-square gradient snippet, but the result was deformed and ugly. Plus, this filter shouldn't really be tiled because it's in perspective, and it's not trying to simulate a 360 degree view. If you want it long, I suggest just stretching it in Photoshop or the like, or use a real 3d landscape program.

In the sign business, quality shops don't stretch or squeeze proportions to fit. Our most common height to width sign size is a 2 to 1 ratio. We use backgrounds all the time similar to what you've created. All I'm saying is that your filter, although a beautiful piece of work, would be rarely used by businesses like mine because of the lack of seamless tiling capability.

No rudeness intended ... I would further suggest, in fairness to other licensees, since it is pretty much expected that a filter will work in seamless mode, that it would be appropriate to point out that limitation in your filter description.

I made a version of the filter that allows for seamless tiling, but in doing so I made it reflective over the vertical axis, which takes away from the result.

It's about time I updated this. Now, you can have 2 colors for the clouds (based on cloud density) and the option to have the clouds cover the sun.
