Is there a way to flaming text?

I would like my title page to look as if the text were on fire. I do not want the fire to be just a pic, but to actually have the flames on the text moving. Would this be possible inside SB or is there some sort of workaround?

Thanks in advance as always for any tips.

Have a look at http://www.flamingtext.com. It's been a long time since I used them, but they might have something useful. You'll probably need to get an animated gif and put that on an overlay track.

Also check out www.outerspace-software.com/blufftitler. Has alot of options including flames I believe.

Here is the correct link to BlufTitler...

Gibbs post was missing the .html part.

Also, don't know how much work you want to put into it fleeper, but you could try something like Anim8or (freeware www.anim8or.com) to create your 3D text than Particle Illusion 2 SE (see my other post on this) to apply the flames, or sparkles, or anything else you can think of. It would be a fair amount of work, but the possibilities and different combinations would be endless. That and you would have titles that would be different than anyone elses...

I went to books a million today for PC utilities. I got it, but it did not contain particle illusion. Is ther anywhere to download the full version for free?

Thanks,

If you get PC Utilities, look for Issue 52. PCTools (Issue 18) also has it and it is a Movie Making Edition. Both magazines show Particle Illusion SE right on the cover or the cover CD. You can not download the program for free, just from the magazines.
