Check out Holgers Schönbergers particle stuff here:

 

http://www.binaryalchemy.de/index_dev.htm - in the free shader collection you will find a tool for creating particle texture coordinates and an excellent procedural fractal shader which provides much more control than the XSI fractal.

Subject: Texturing Particles...

Hello aminatorers.

Is there a way to project a texture across a particle cloud? E.g. a camera projection acorss the whole cloud so that the texture isn't repeated, but is projected over the whole cloud, rather than each individual particle inheriting the whole image. Not used particles that much, and have tried a quick RTFM to no avail...
