I'd be pleased if I could look at it..

Hmm, I think I know what you mean, but the task of adding burst towards the glowwing
points would be a pretty mean time consumer... I think it'd be in O(n^3) or something
like
that...

Let me see... There would be approx 10*amount of points, that's linear, and then a
rotate
and fade... No, O(n^2) is more like it..

Yes, It was a help, i was kinda stuck in my thoughts... 
Anyone want source, ask :-)
