Yeh its hard to describe a picture in words. lets say you draw a flashlight in PhotoShop. Now say you want to create a beam of light comin' out of it...but with that camera-like reflection going on...thats the effect Im looking for.

One of the tabs in KPT is the Reflection tab. The "Type" drop-down menu includes "flashlight" - exactly wot I was looking for hee hee. Same for the "Streaks" tab which also has a flashlight-type streak-selection under its drop-menu. It looks well nice when this KPT lens-flare is applied to a light-source in your image (car headlights, aircraft landing lights, flashlights etc etc )

You made a good point about using the free transform to fiddle with the light-beam! I had a feeling the solution was staring me in the face all the time. I'll 'ave a go at it now then...

Thanx!
