Steve, you got the smoke trail down pat! But of-course you only see that with the 80 pounders!

That is one of the things I miss about Sweden - getting out plastered at midnight and shooting off fireworks from the front yard, or balcony of your apartment building...

Steve, I second Risto's comment about the smoke trail. There are a lot good elements in the animation, BUT the smoke trail is the tops.

Thanks for taking the time to comment, I appreciate it! Yea, I'm a detail freak so had to do I what looked the best for it, although I'm not all that pleased with the sparks! Oh well

Yea, Americans are pretty much the same way! We're aloud buying the fireworks, we just have to sign a waver promising to take it out of state! Riiiiight, everyone follows that rule!

I remember lighting my first firecracker. It was one of the loud ones about the size of a cigarrette that you light and throw emmediately then they let out this ear-piercing POP. So, I did the smartest thing you could do; I lit it then brought my arm back to throw it like a baseball right next to my ear and BAAM!! I had a ring in my ear like a siren the rest of the day! Didn't touch one for a couple years afterwards

It must have been a lot of work. But it paid off.

Thanks a lot guys! Yea, it took me a while, but I was kinda bored at the time, freetime over Christmas Break!

Ivan, doesn't have any sound, but you need to get some sound man! I couldn't cope! (I listen to all my music from here, so maybe that's why)

I agree with the other comments about the smoke trail ...very nice!

The white frame "explosion" under the black "Xara" is also a nice touch, I can almost hear it!
