    Why does it seem like it’s a pain to create trails? Maybe it’s the book, seems like there’s way too much to set to create the trails, or am I missing something?

    Thanks,
    Tim

    In the controls window, under the position tab, there is a slider for trails…it will create trails very quickly…..is this not what you are looking for ????

    I guess what I’m looking for is trails that sparkle and fade off behind a logo.

    Thanks,

    So more a particle type of thing than a trail, yes ?? This can be done by duplicating the track, applying 2d particles to the lower track. Adjust the particles to manual and make sure that they don’t animate, then add the trails to that. There are particle generators that will also do the same type of thing. I have to admit that software like particle illusion do a better job of this.
