Piece of cake...  6 mins is pretty slow.  Are you using an array? That slows
things down a LOT.   Nice img though.

I can send you code for a MUCH faster looped object (NOT JUST SPHERE)
placement include file, If you're interested.  It too doesn't do collision
chk, but is lightning fast.

What speed computer are you using?
