Added a generic fur material!

Yes if would be very nice to be able to rotate the domain, but rendering  
smoke with a rotated domain is not really working like it should, so for  
now globally aligned domains it is :)

Are you sure? For me checking the "start baking" will start a fluid baking  
job just fine (this can be seen in the top header). You'll have to  
manually step through the timeline to see the results as they're being  
baked.
