The page seems to lack the definition of a supershape. It also seems
to lack limitations on what can be submitted. For all I can see I could
just submit a reflective sphere on a checkered plane because there are
no limitations on what the image should contain. Or I could try to compress
eg. a mesh of a human head into the 10000 bytes and submit that (clearly
that wouldn't be a supershape?).
  The last point is imho quite important: Someone could just make a mesh
of something which looks impossible to do as a mathematical formula, and
it really can be so. Since the voters don't see the source code when
voting they can't be sure if it's just a 'mesh2' block with tons of
data (eg. from poser or whatever) and they might give it a lot of votes
even though the entry has nothing to do with supershapes.
