Some really nice animations, this might help some of you, but a while ago I made a candle picture...
I was struggling with the flame till I found this Inkscape tutorial on making a candle, I was able to replicte the steps in Gimp.

Great looking candle! Why not Inkscape? Thanks for the link, he4rty!
I have to try it too, in Inkscape it is also possible to make animations.

nice work guys/gals. geeze, alc, how did you ever get that Blue Jay so real looking with the animation.

Blue jays and bear are from video i took through the window, would have been clearer if i was outside
these are apng, i think they look so much better than gif, IE users probably won't see the animation tho
