Most other Photoshop fire tutorials are just not convincing enough. This tutorial will help you bring fire and flames to your images in more amazing ways than you can imagine. ...

For those who do not have access to, or cannot use 3D programs, there is a way to create semi-realistic perspectives in Photoshop.
