Ok, here is the code requested by Hershel Robinson. I recommend tracing 
it with the same width and height settings in the POV ini file, or throw 
this into the ini settings text bar at the top:

+w200 +h200

Enjoy!

global_settings{
  ambient_light 0
  max_trace_level 75
}

camera{fisheye up y*.7 right x*.7
  location<0,0,-.01> look_at 0 angle 180
}

light_source{0,1}

#declare rd=15.915;
union{

  sphere{<10,10,10>,rd}

  finish{

   reflection{0,1 falloff .2}

  rotate y*45 rotate x*-35

Does this require 3.5?

Only if you keep this line in:

reflection{0,1 falloff .2}


You can replace it with this for version 3.1:
reflection .7

It won't look the same, unfortunately.
