I like it. Simple, but anything more would only ruin it.

"Dude.. are you being sarcastic?"

The dots look remarkably like Go pieces.

I may have exagerated a little but I do like it.

I've always been a real fan of squashed spheres, but only to an extent.
The 3:1 ratio I used here seems to be the ideal. Anything more looks too
flat, anything less looks just a bit distorted.

Simon,

I liked Ken's comment. Pretty right on, I think. I am still
looking for the 'demonic' aspect, however. Maybe red horns.

I am definitely with David on this. Like Go vs Billiards or
something.

Very good and striking. I mean for a Moray user...

You should try:

scale <1, (sqrt(5)-1)*0.5, 1> ;-)

Sheesh! I just love this image! The balls look so ... plastic! I am not
being sarcastic, of course! I would love to see the source. (Not kidding.)

Simen.
