In both cases it is because, as Hugo has pointed out, I forgot to use the proper
syntax. That's what I get for doing things in a hurry. Try this;

 #declare Wrapobject = object{
      MySphereObject
      finish{ambient 1}
      Center_Trans(Wrapobject, x+y+z)
      }//end object


The above syntax is allowed for pigments, but if for some reason this doesn't
work, put a texture{} wrapper around the finish statement.

I've been using PoV since 2.2, and I still don't always remember syntactic
things. 95% of the time, I just keep the help file open for reference. You may
want to consider this. Especially if your depending on me :D
