I'm trying to leave a trail to my cursor with an image and I would like to make it fade before removing it.

I'm currently doing this :

$('#cursor').clone().appendTo(".trails").delay(2000)
        .queue(function() {
            $(this).remove();
});; 

If I do

$('#cursor').clone().appendTo(".trails").delay(2000)
        .queue(function() {
           $(this).fadeOut(500);
});; 

This doesn't make anything fadeOut

Also I tried doing

$('#cursor').clone().fadeOut(500).appendTo(".trails").delay(2000)
        .queue(function() {
            $(this).remove();
});; 

But this make all clone fadeOut because of the reference

Any solution to this ?
