Yes I had forgotten it, I added the keyword and got a slight success with the
cloud... but was it really a cloud???  Time to tweak the values I entered!... ;)

Thanks for the advice I like to get a fast preview of things when I render, but
since it's a cloud and it's not very important I was thinking of not giving it
an interior and setting its color to rgb 1 so i can see a shadow but it not very
perfect but still very fast!...

Thanks a lot,
