Thanks for all the kind suggestions and ideas. Will give them a try... Holger,
can't wait for your RC4 the images look great!...

I don't think that the rainbow requires some volume, can't you just take a
plane (or mutliple to get a bit thickness) and finetune the rainbow in
compositing?
Otherwise I will release RC4 of my volume shader next week. I thin kthis will
be the last Release Canditate. No new features in RC4, only documentation and
more speed optimizations.

Subject: Make rainbow and clouds
I need expert help... I am trying to generate 3D rainbow and clouds. Anyone
have any idea on how to do it in XSI? I have to do a fly through so they need
to look convincingly real.
Many thanks...
