I took the ideas of [Bit-101’s gravity tutorial](http://www.bit-101.com/tutorials/gravity.html) and came up with these…

[Particle Volcano](http://www.lostinbeta.com/swf/particleVolcano.html)

And using the above but making minor adjustments to how it reacts you can create exploding pixel art…

[Particle Smiley](http://www.lostinbeta.com/swf/particleSmiley.html)

I did these as an experiment with gravity physics as well as particle creation. Also the 2 varying files show the great difference that can be achieved with a few changes to the code and a little imagination/creativity.

The source files can be downloaded from the download source link on the page that contains the example file.
