For ages, I’ve been looking for an easy way to create a sunburst effect in Adobe Fireworks —because I’m lazy like that!
How delighted was I to come across this Adobe Extension recently called Sunburst by Aaron Beall:
This AutoShape creates radial sunburst patterns, with control over the inner/outer radius, the number of rays and the spacing between rays. You can add a single gradient fill and get a nice, feathered edge.
