Most of the tutorials about how to create a fire simulation in Photoshop is
based on the principle of “blurring“ and “smudgind” the picture in order to
evoke flames. Either with the Wind filter or Smudge Tool, all
these methods depend on the fact how good you operate with the mouse. One bad
stroke and the whole effect is beyond recovery. At that it is too possible to do
it also in another way – more easier.
