or

make light sprites for game

Plz refer me to a tutorial if you know how

Thanks everyone

Other than making pre-rendered images like the one you posted its just not feasible right now. It might be possible in the future using webgl.

Do you want it to be Animated? or a static image?

if you want an animated one..try using the trail effect listed in the forums.

static is possible if you use layers and layer masks set to additive or similar

Try to be more specific in what you want..Everything is possible..you just haven't figured out a way yet..Einstein said ..he would spend 95 % of the time working out the what the problem was before he worked on the answer...so what EXACTLY are you wanting..

NOTE: hold down left mouse button to make trails

Not sure if something like this is anything like what you are talking about but - just to explicate how simple it is - it took about 5 minutes. And the source image is yucky with the alpha going into the border. Yet still pretty neat.

Edit: Let me know if the above is part of the effect you are going for and if so, I will put some more time into it and get those mist effects like shown in your image working.

Come on Guys ... Don't bump old posts !

I figured out how to do it years before now !

Oh wow, I didn't notice the date, as it was on the first page, and was trying to help you. Who knows? Maybe other people who haven't already figured it out might find it helpful. :/

No problem ... Thanks for helping even when you don't help me :D

Helped me ;P thanks, care to post a .capx?

Certainly! And if you're interested, I can try to get the full effect with the mist and sparkles in there.

Thank you, that would be cool ;]

That trail looks really nice... apart from those corner artefacts!

Is there any way to get rid of those?

Thanks! and yeah I just carelessly made a soft brush dot in photoshop and the spray went over the edge of the image. And then was too lazy to open up photoshop and correct. I'll update it with a proper image.
