ohh, just watched your torus.avi--missed it the last time.
this one looks really cool, and not just because of the use of area lights
;)
so i think it might have to do with the shape--if the shapes are easyly
recognizeable, the whole thing looks more convincing (for me). even in the
state between torus and sphere, all points are arranged sphere-like, which
as all povers know is some 'magical' solid primitive.
