That option was inspired by the LiquidSpray include file...you can also
generate your own particles with the custom_particle feature. You can't
orient them to the camera though...I am trying to figure out how to
temporarily add variables containing particle information like position,
velocity, etc.

Here is an updated version, with a real water texture(instead of just a
refracting transparent blob) and other changes.

Very impressive. While I took physics and calculus in college, it was a
long time ago. My current knowledge of Newtonian physics is limited to
throwing fig newtons into the air and catching them in my mouth.

What is the patina pigment I keep reading? G. Tran asked for it, now H.
E. Day. Seems like something for advanced artists? Can someone explain
it or give sample pictures of it?
