Icosahedron, Octahedron, Cube, and Tetrahedron, to go with the recently
posted Dodecahedron.
Source for all flakes will be in p.b.s-f.
(Personally I think the Dodecahedral Flake looked best.)

Hmm, looking at that cubical flake, I don't think I'd want to be caught in a
storm if they existed. OUCH!

Blah, blah, blah... Im sick and tired of all this "foregin" words, I want
them
in my vocabulary .-) Anyone have any links where I can read up on my
geometry ?

Nice image by the way, even though it doesn't look excactly as a
snowflake...

Glenn.

 As you might have already guessed I have a link or two that may be of
interest to you:

In this case snowflake is another technical term, referring to the fractal
geometry of the object.

unidirectionnal but...
