moving object

[limey]

I'm not sure how to accomplish this but I am trying to make a ball look like it is in motion as it is thrown across a room.
I know I can blur the ball but I was thinking more of trying to show a series of the ball in flight.
Does anyone have any suggestions how best to do this.
Thanks fellows

is this about what you want? if so, let me know and I'll show you how \:/

Thanks Ronmatt, that looks great just what I had in mind but instead of a straight line of flight I would like to have it more like a arc or a lob.

this is very basic and has a basic effect. We can make it far more complicated with stretching the
ball for color trails and doing some interesting effects in Illustrator. But this may serve the purpose

Thanks Ronmatt, that's a good link I will have fun with it.
