   I like the image explosion, but there doesn't seem to be much more that you can do with an image other than that. Is there any way to do the reverse the effect for example or any other ways other than explode from a single point in manipulating an images. It would be cool if other effects could be applied to images. Maybe there is and I just haven't figured them out yet.

   The createRectangleParticlesFromBitmapData method breaks an image into many small particles. These particles are then open to influence by any of the Actions in Flint - e.g. apply acceleration to have them drop to the ground, apply a jet to whisk them off the screen - it just depends on your imagination.

   I would like to build picture I had broken into small particles before. Is there a way to reverse explosion?

   The createRectangleParticlesFromBitmapData method sets the x and y coordinates of the particles to their position in the image. If you then use these coordinates as the end point for a custom Action and randomize the particles' start positions, you can move the particles to these positions. Sorry I don't have an example.

   Any chance someone could give me a small example of how to do the reverse of the explosion?
