I am slowly wrapping my head around how you managed it and have already created a class to have animated particles via FP's Spritemap class. I have noticed some odd behaviors though, do you still monitor the thread on the FlashPunk forums? FLuNK is coming in very handy for my current project, thank you.

I have noticed some odd behaviors though, do you still monitor the thread on the FlashPunk forums?

So far though, I see good use for both frameworks! Hope you get some use out of FLuNK. A few reasons:

Curious to why you shifted to Flixel? This is very cool indeed as I just started out with FlashPunk and found it's native particle system lacking.

Pretty soon after making this I (perhaps unfortunately) switched focus to Flixel, and I'm currently working on extending it for some other features. What I'm saying is that there may not be any more updates on this coming from me any time shortly. You're welcome!

I was about to start doing this myself but I think what you have here will be a good headstart. Thanks! Very cool.
