I needed something with layers that I could access at work from an undisclosed location, and I'd at least heard of it, so. The reason they're so small is that it was all done with the standard paintbrush - any larger and you'd start seeing block-filled areas, which never look good. ^_^
I don't think yours is as bad as you think. The saucer works very well in the sky, just as the TARDIS does on the beach; the sea and sky go together well too. The tree is kind of jarring, but silver leaves, right? I'm sure I remember Eight going on about silver leaves.
You've got a few artefacts around the islands, but the easiest way to eliminate those would be to shrink the image slightly. ;) After that, I'd mostly be looking at the shadows - under a burnt orange sky, I think they'd take a different colour to standard black. I would say highlights as well (eg, on the leaves), but if the Doctor says they're silver, that must mean they appear silver even under Gallifreyan light, so that works.
