This pack wasn't made by me, it was originally from droidz.org (down at the moment so I can't link it). Not sure who the original author was, but it's the pack I used to create these effects. Note that it is not a quick/easy process to create a lot of good looking explosions and takes me several hours to create a single one. The mushroom cloud effect at the end took a whole week.
