wow, i didn't realize that thread was still active. I had read thru it before but had forgotten that I never made it to the end. After finishing the rest of the thread tho, im still having trouble. But, I'll move my questions there. Thank you.

If i remember rightly you hook a particle sampler node into the x value of a setRange node, for instance the lifeIncandescance into inputX. Then set the old min and old max to the values you set on the fluid shape incand for example values could be 0.8 for old min and -0.2 for old max, then set new min and new max to 0 and 1. This will normalise you fluid shader values so that your particle will change over its lifespan.

something like that anyway, I may have to brush up a bit.
