The labels are logos ripped off the web or brochures. I can not take
any credit for those.

No, there's just the ground plane and the window (2x1 meters, 4 meters
away).

Nothing personal has been put into the placement of the balls. It's
just that Blender's logo is virtually the same orange they use for the
1 ball, and that one should always be in the front. That's why Messiah
is in the far left corner, for example - their purple matches the 12
ball purple perfectly.

If I put something else in its place, I might offend someone else. I
am surprised Lance hasn't yelled already :)

Blender has already moved to a less vulnerable place - in the public
domain, where all good software should be (need I point examples? :) )

>p.s. I now have some new wall paper.

Wow, that's by far the greatest compliment I've had. Thank you!
