Hello Bob,
You can achieve this effect by playing with the Particle Color
attribute, or with the Particle UVW attribute.
With the first one (the simpler) you just have to enable the
Emission->MapColor (in the Emission tab of the Emitter PPG) parameter
and to connect it to a texture map with the texture projection you
need.
For the other, you will need to set the UVW of you particles by
script, and play in the render tree...
Don't hesitate to ask more if you need!
Cheers,
Aloys
