Candle Flame Test

I have tried many variations to create a flame for the candle using various tutorials. Some have been very realistic fires and others are more cartoony. The Flame I chose, as seen below, is the more cartoony of all tried. I still need to work out the lighting for this scene as the flame is to bright against an un-illuminated candle, as the only light in the scene at the moment is a spot light from the candle. The animation within the texture of the candle will also act as the back drop to my silhouette scene.
