Chapter 4 Arts and Letters 143

In the following basic example, a single, 120 x 240 pixel image called “jelly” is used as a

particle source over a background image to create a smack of jellyfish.

Note: “Smack” is the animal group name for jellyfish. Not as bad as an “implausibility”

of gnus, but not as good as a “rhumba” of rattlesnakes, either.

To create a custom emitter:

1 In the Layers tab, select the object you want use as a particle cell source (or “nozzle”).

Note: You can also add an emitter to a project when nothing is selected.

2 Select the object, then do one of the following:

• Click the Make Particles icon in the Toolbar.

• Press E.

Once an emitter is added to the project, the following occurs:

• The Emitter object appears in the Layers tab and is selected.

• The “jelly” object becomes an emitter source for the new particle cell.

• The original reference object is disabled.
