hi,
right now, for an explosion, i am just showing 3 images in a for loop, is there any better way to create a more realistic explostion? thanks.
Is there such thing?

I think MK means 'look up particle system in Google'.

... which is actually a helpful answer, since the question did not mention particle systems at all, and they *can* be used to create more realistic explosions.

particle systems are also quite cpu intensive, something that most android devices have plentiful of

A:
maybe a bank of 10 or 15 images that pick randomly from to dynamically create new sequences

A:
Try blitting a sequence of pre-rendered bitmaps combined with a few single pixel "sparks" that fly from the origin. ParticleIllusion (which isn't free) lets you generate some very nice looking explosions and save them as a sequence of pngs.
