hm, maybe there is a way we can figure out how to animate the windblast going around the circle, i dont itd be that hard to do.

mayb u could add an outer glow to the layer, and then do the same thing as the "glowing text" tutorial or something like that, that may work but im not sure. you could also mayb copy layer and use smudge to stretch out the edge even more, then animate from the regular eclipse picture to your modified eclipse picture and just throw some tweens in there...

*edit* oh i think i see what u mean i didnt really read ur post that thoroughly. u could try starting with just the outline of the circle (planet) and then make the second frame the eclipse picture, then tween them.
