[ITK Community] RawImageIO volume writing

Hi Matt,

is the way I use the RawImageIO together with the image writer correct?
I'm still trying to change directions, swapping them, playing around 
with some other values, and it just keeps on producing the same wrong 
output (i'm sure the raw image is newly generated though and i'm loading 
that one in paraview to visualize the results or in my software to 
analze it).
I start wondering because nothing i do seems to cause real changes, so i 
think i might be misusing the whole thing, but i don't get how.

Thanks and Best,
Emiliano
