[PD] gem: how to make focus or blur

[chris clepper]

pix_blur is really pix_motionblur, so just use the latter.  I don't 
think those will 'blur' a scene the way you want since it only works on 
entire pix frames.  I would maybe look into things like fog, lighting 
and also render to texture with [pix_snap2tex].  The render to texture 
will allow you to overlay several passes of an object using a loop and 
by offsetting each object slightly and having the alpha below 1 it will 
blur.  This might be tricky to do effectively depending on your scene.
