No CUSTOM selection in Particular 2.0?

Figured it out! Custom's been replaced by Sprites and Polygons. If you select one of these then it will allow you to select your custom shape layer.

I've got exactly the same problem, Custom is not on the Particle type list, so I don't know how to proceed to create the desired effect.
No CUSTOM selection in tutorial

Hi I followed this tutorial step by step up until I needed to tell the particle to use the CUSTOM particle type. It isn't in the list so I couldn't link it to the particle i created!!! Do you think using a trial version of Trapcode Particular could be the problem?
I just tried the link and it works fine. Perhaps the server was busy, we've been getting a heavy amount of traffic and will be adding another tutorials servers next week.

Thanks for the positive feedback. Particular is a very powerful plugin and is great for all kinds of effects. If you liked this tutorial, I have an advanced tutorial which should be posted very soon in which I recreate this effect, but use the rotation of the particle in all 3d axis to control the color and brightness of the glitter particle. You should check it out. Once again, thanks for the kind words.
