Hi mizmo and all other artists, maybe thats a way to render fireworks, of course used my favorite tool Inkscape ;) http://gnokii.fedorapeople.org/fireworks.png first draw a star with 25 edges, spoke ratio 0.110, rounded 0.080 and randomized 0.020 then I made 2 copies of it and added each 2 more edges and scaled them. now, u can choose, I made path union of them all but u can do the next steps of each stat alone there will be a better result. I used the path effect Bend and brought the middle of the control line a little bit up. Then I filled it wit a radial gradient (each filled wit a little bit different looks more cool) Then I made a copy of them and filled it with white and set down the opacity to 30 Then I used some filter primitives on it, u can find them in http://gnokii.fedorapeople.org/firework.svg br gnokii > > On Fri, 2012-01-13 at 15:44 +0300, Alexander Smirnov wrote: > > Testing screenshots gnome, kde, lxde, xfce.
