Cool idea.

Hey great Idea As far as the transparency aspect if you look at one of my newest one Virology if you invert the alpha it can easily do the shap its the highlights and colors Ill have to give some thought to since to pull it off realistically I might not be the best for color blends but at least maybe using my filter as a starting point for the alpha might help someone

well Im still working on the ones Rich asked for --coming niceley except for the field of depth one not sure what he meant and the fire one is coming nicely with the proper highlights and shapes it the blend mode to get it looking just like that is difficult generic 2d flames are easy but the lighting on theese is proving difficult for me at least--The rims sounds nice you could easily take something like that clockworks filter and modify it for chrome rims Im allready in the process of taking the plain spokes shape to make my fan blades a little easier to shape and vary. If no-one else tries give me a day or two because Im expecting a major heavy load from work in the next day or two

Noise distortion is similar to refraction or offset with the exception that it appears to use periln noise as the distortion map. Hense, you have more control over the distortion if you use another component.
