Finally a voice cries out in the desert!! I totally agree! The last TOTB competition wasn't really judged on originality, it was judged by who had pretty artwork. And on top of that like 4 people ha

Hi 11clock, paticles can't be put behind the actor that's using the particles behavior. So a workaround is to have an actor as your image over the top, with constrain x and y to particles actor used i
