Er YES PLEASE Chris - just going down this route myself, and yes am
getting nice results, but it does take a bit of fiddling and tweaking!!!
They are nice shaders I must say!!

Sorry to be late on this,
As most have mentioned, the BA Volume shaders would be the way to go.
We've just done load of nice looking animating clouds using particles
with the BA shaders. Very nice. It took quite a bit of grappling to get
them looking right, with no artifacts, but it is possible. I could post
up a material preset if you want?
