    /** A billboard is a primitive which always faces the camera in every frame.
        @remarks
            Billboards can be used for special effects or some other trickery which requires the
            triangles to always facing the camera no matter where it is. Ogre groups billboards into
            sets for efficiency, so you should never create a billboard on it's own (it's ok to have a
            set of one if you need it).
        @par
            Billboards have their geometry generated every frame depending on where the camera is. It is most
            beneficial for all billboards in a set to be identically sized since Ogre can take advantage of this and
            save some calculations - useful when you have sets of hundreds of billboards as is possible with special
            effects. You can deviate from this if you wish (example: a smoke effect would probably have smoke puffs
            expanding as they rise, so each billboard will legitimately have it's own size) but be aware the extra
            overhead this brings and try to avoid it if you can.
        @par
            Billboards are just the mechanism for rendering a range of effects such as particles. It is other classes
            which use billboards to create their individual effects, so the methods here are quite generic.
