 +====== Drawing Trails ======

 +
 +You can use Sparrow's SPrenderTexture to draw trails and create interesting effects.  to do this we stamp an object repeatedly onto a render texture then stamp a colored quad on top to fade it out.  
 +
 +Try it with particles for some serious fun.
 +
 +<code objc>
 +#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
 +#import "Sparrow.h"
 +
 +@interface SparrowTrails : SPStage{
 + CGPoint lastTouch;
 + CGPoint newTouch;
 + SPImage *follower;
 + SPQuad *fadeColor;
 + SPRenderTexture *fadeTexture;
 + SPImage *fadeImage;
 +}
 +
 +- (void)update:(SPEnterFrameEvent*)event;
 +- (void)touched:(SPTouchEvent*)event;
