•  Oppose Very dark, making it hard to see the traffic light structure. But generally, I don't think animated GIF is an appropriate format for 2015 FP. We have better quality video formats, which allow the user to control when to play. The video is a bit on the slow side -- is the timing accurate (ignoring the time spent on green or red, which must vary with the junction)? Without accurate timing, one might as well just show a series of cartoon lights to explain the sequence, which has other advantages too. -- Colin (talk) 11:42, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
•  I withdraw my nomination Da, I did put longer intervals where they exist, to get feeling of cycle. But I didn't go into complete scaling, why ? Because would last some 2 minutes. And I know videos, animations should not be that long, people loose interest after 20-30 seconds at such occasion. Unless some more dynamic presentation, which is not the case here. Neither I saw semafor animation with complete cycle in 1:1. Will one wait 30 seconds to wait for green or will think animation is over ? That's why, pack in more tight if you want the audience. --Mile (talk) 14:20, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
