Hello guys & gals,

I am trying to figure out the best way to make a flower bloom in flash. Ideally I would like to have a photo quality image flower bloom.

Here is an example of a flower that I would like to bloom.

I was thinking that if I kept the center of the flower (the core) in it’s exact proportions. While having the outsides be perspected in there respective directions with a small shadow applied, might be the best way for the flower to look closed, and then flattening the image out would make it appear to bloom.

But I am looking for some better ideas, and some implementable ideas.

Does anyone have any?
