Colors and Gradients in the Particle System (Shuriken)

The color-based properties will have a pull down menu on the right hand side, where you can choose between:

Color: The color will be the same throughout time (see Color Picker)

Gradient: The gradient (RGBA) will vary throughout time, edited in the Gradient Editor

Random Between Two Colors: The color varies with time and is chosen at random between two values specified in the Color Picker

Random Between Two Gradients: The gradient (RGBA) varies with time and is chosen at random between two values specified Gradient Editor
