This is a quick experiment to see how the fire from my elements image looked
when animated. I've animated it by scrolling the granite pattern down whilst
scrolling the turbulence up (well, actually both move in a circle so the
anim loops).

Not too bad but doesn't quite look real.

Not bad at all. It looks very close to the Real Thing (TM)

Very impressive, tho. I think the problem is sometimes a free-floating 
bit of flame will "evaporate" from the top down, making it look like the 
lick of flame is going downwards.

For what it is, it looks more real than you'd think. Even so, it's not 
going to fool anybody too much.

Of course, if you wanted *really* real, you'd have to do a full physics 
pass to compute real gas turbulence... and that's not quite as quick. (!)

Looks very good.  The only thing that makes me say "computer generated" 
is the lack of transmitted light coming from the flames.  If you could 
simulate that you could have a very good flame model without having to 
go into the physics side of things.

Nice Work. :)

Very nice! What about the idea of using the same thing but as an 
animated density pattern for media fire? Or is that what this is?
