ok, I am playing with a smoke script that makes a glowing ball, I started to figure out a bit from just changing the numbers around.

now:

I make a prim and strech it out nice and long. How can I make the particles come out of the end and not the center?

Any help would be apreciated

Particles are always generated relative to the center of the "emitter" (the prim with your particle script). If you want to have your smoke come out the end of your object, you'll have to put another prim where you want them to originate from. This prim can be invisible if you don't want it to clutter up the rest of your object.
