I already posted these macros AND these example sources to p.b.s-f. 
Have a look.  (Subject:  Dice and RoundBox macros)

I was really intending these images to be primarily tests for these 
macros rather than anything really serious.  But thanx for the compliment.

LOL.  Actually, the number of dice in this image is controlled with a 
single #declare.  Although the volume that they're restricted to is 
hard-coded, it wouldn't be too difficult to re-code that to use 
#declared values also, if anyone is interested in playing with it.
