Bounding Box Particle Render

Bounding Box Particle Render

Hello,

I have an animation of a rocket taking off with a smoke cloud trail behind
it; typicall stuff. The cam is on the 'ground' and follows the target
skyward.
When I render the particles, it seems they are projected on a cube that
seems to have the same dimensions as the particle cloud bounding box.
Instead of getting a volumous cloud, it looks like a flattened image
projected on this "cube/box" and the particle textures get stretched and
bent at the corners.

The particles look like they are supposed to, just not 'suspended' in space.

Have I missed an option? Is this a bug?

Any hints at this point will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks and have a good day.

Akie.
