It is normally best to post either MPEG 1, MPEG2,
AVI or, if it really must be, DIVX. In all other
cases, someone will complain about "I couldn't
see it". Either that, or you'll get almost no feedback.
You can't expect people to bother downloading
software when it is you who wants comments.
(That's not a pun, its a fact).

Aside of that...

It does look pretty, though I'd do something about
the particles you're using. They look more like a
cartoon than like RL.
The first "stream" of smoke looks rather artificial,
I wouldn't expect it to just go up into the air.
And you should definitely use smaller and more
particles.

Regards,
Tim
