GreG, It would be nice if the particles could retain at least some of the color and/or attributes of the object from which they were particalized. For instance, if I map a simple image to a plane, particalize it and explode it, each particle should retain some of the color from its respective triangle in the plane. This way you would actually see the image fly apart. The details of the map for the triangle would not need to be maintained, ie. each particle would not need a map, just color the whole thing with the average of the colors at the corners of its triangle. Virtually no extra memory and very little computation, but a big impact (IMHO). -Marco
