I was inspired by this post, so I created a model to render smoke text in Picture to People project.

Here you can see how it looks like:

Smoke looks great!

When I did the "Hell Tutorial" from Abduzeedo I add my own Smoke Skull that was made with the same technique as the fire: http://bp2.blogger.com/_dHgFDLVQjpQ/SJfNAVwgxBI/AAAAAAAAAHs/ulsoJK76sWk/...

I like this post.

Despite some images don't look like smoke, it's a nice idea.

I have already created in P2P an text rendering for clouds. You have just inspired me to make something similar with smoke.

Here the clouds example (I hope I will be able to post a smoke example here in some days):
