I've never used the particle_system patch so I don't know much about it's
features. For example I didn't know that the particles could be glows and
that it supported cyclic animation.

Since I haven't tried the particle_system patch I don't know if my system
would have any advantages over it. Anyway, my patch will be *mine*, it will
be made my *me*, it will work exactly as *I* want! :)

I didn't know that; it sounds interesting. I think the general awareness of
your particle_system patch and its possibilities could be improved if you
posted some animations showing it's various uses. Or maybe such animations
are already available somewhere?
