Particle System Help Please.

Hey!
I need some help with a partical system. I'm using 3D's max 9 32bit and im using a spray particle system. I want to make a blood cell, and apply that blood cell to each partical that comes out of the gizmo. Is there a way to do this? If so how?
Aslo, if there is a better way to do this, please suggest. Thanks!

i'm no expert in particles. but i think you need to model the cell first. then inn the particle system view it's a modifyer that says somthing like pic shape....must lie under the topic shapes or particle shapes or somthing. so when you done that the particles will all reshape to the blood cell mesh. then apply the material you want the particles (blood cell) to have on the particle maker.

hopes this gives you a start :) good luck.
