Fake Flame

[kalamazoo]

Does anyone know where I can find a picture of a flame to paste onto photographs of my candles. I tried to crop, cut and paste a flame off one of my own candles, but wow what a performance, and it never really worked. If on the other hand you have instructions or tips on how I may be able to use a pic of my own flame, then this would be much appreciated. Thanks

Using Photoshop (or equivalent), magic lasso/wand the flame, then copy it. Paste it into a new document, add a little feathering around the edges of the object and save it as a gif file with a transparent background.
