Hi Scott, On your second request, do you think it would be more useful to get an array of particle references (p0,p1,p2,p3..etc) and then use that to get parameters of a specific particle (as happens with onParticleDeath attaching clips at the particle's x,y via getParticleX()and getParticleY() in the example).
Or would it seem easier if the returned array contained all the properties of each particle as a 2 dimensional array (like it is internally in the class) of reference number, coordinates, speed, size etc. I'm also thinking about allowing public access to the methods to remove individual particles. Any other suggestions?

It's infinite if set to 0. That second point is definitely something I'll look into.

I think it would be cool if you could specify a particle decay if you want particles to die before they hit the screen edge. And maybe being able to change particle properties based on their remaining "life".
