    What OS are you using? What version of particleIllusion? What are the exact steps you’re taking? At what point does it crash?

    win xp

    particle illusion 3.0.1a

    everything is fine until i close the window that lets you change the emitter shapes, etc.

    it imports my shapes and previews them just fine – but, the whole program quits when i close that window

    Is it a stage emitter that you’ve opened the properties dialog for, or the library? I’m guessing library. Try a stage emitter instead.

    also, is it with any shape or a custom shape you made? Maybe the image format is the issue. Have you tried it with any other image formats?
