Hey Chris

Unfortunatly gave up on SGEffect.

I managed todo the glow effect in a JComponent(not scenegraph), using a blurred
out and resized image, which i ran through a color filter to make it the glow
any color I liked. I could make it pulsating by adjusting the alpha value of the
blurred image. Very very low CPU utilization. It also made a more intense glow
than I was able todo with the SGGlow effect.

This worked like a charm. But I am missing some way to put color filtres on my
images in a scenegraph. Currently I dont know how to "grey" out an image.

Anyway great framework its a pleasure to work with :-) [Message sent by forum member 'oliverdb' (oliverdb)]
