Well, the CVS builds (or HEAD builds?) allow to make Animated Nebulae Poofs. (that are those things when you are flying inside the nebulae, but you probably already knew that).... So...

Yes it works. We've already tested this feature in SoL.

I wonder if I can do this in Paintshop Pro 5......

I don't think you can animate nebula backgrounds, can you?

But it still makes nice nebula effects :yes:

The nebula poof maps for the in-nebula missions.

Not sure. I know for sure that you can use animated sun maps. So... you could just try it. ;)
