icon request: action-lines (movement lines, three lines as in star-shooting)

[Yishmeray]

What can it be used for? With any existing icon to denote action/movement.

Example image (optional)

the star-shooting icon has action lines already.

the stream icon is close.

could be something like this:

or this:

Icon request checklist

• [x] This is a single icon or matched pair (Ex: lock / unlock)
• [x] The title starts with "Icon request: " and is followed by the requested icon name (Ex: Icon request: magical-unicorn)
• [x] I have searched for existing issues and to the best of my knowledge this is not a duplicate
• [x] I have included at least one example image if it could be helpful (optional)
• [x] The request is for a concrete object (it's harder to make an icon to represent happiness, it's easier to make a smiley face. ☺) [it's not a concrete object, but it is a very common symbol used in cartooning, for example]

Hi Tagliala - well, it's OK. My own home-grown examples above were not meant to be prescriptive - just ideas about how a real artist might do action lines.

I don't think action lines usually come in the form you've suggested - short/long/short/long in a set of 4.

Witness the three action lines used on the existing star-shooting. Two lines are often used. Sometimes a cloud at their end. I don't recall seeing 4. I could be mistaken!

Obviously the current fontawesome team saw the value of action lines, or there wouldn't be any on the star-shooting! I just want to get that (or something similar) away from the star.

Thank you for the attention and response. Your suggestion is not entirely bad!
