Line 10: To my mere untrained Layman's eye, this does not look like a sphere. If anything, I'd say, it looks like a butt.[[User:Sgeier\|Sgeier]] 16:37, 25 April 2011 (UTC) : well, it says "animated".. so if you animate the butt, maybe it looks more like a sphere. would be nice if somebody could paste a better picture. --[[User:Oenone\|Oenone]] 12:58, 10 May 2011 (UTC) :: Once ya "see" the butt, then ya can't see anything else but the butt.     -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger\|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger\|talk]]) 19:00, 1 January 2020 (UTC) == Perspective?? == Line 17 ⟶ 20: Indeed. But there must be sufficient voodoo to make it not look like a flat circle or disk. [[User:Markhobley\|Markhobley]] 22:11, 25 April 2011 (UTC) Or, you could do it at the PureBasic version.

[[User:Markhobley\|Markhobley]] 14:00, 26 April 2011 (UTC) : We all know that earth's moon is a sphere.   But because of the lighting (by our sun), it does not look round (except during a full moon), but rather, it looks/appears like a crescent most of the time.   I think that <strike>all</strike> most of the "ASCII-art" renderings are a depiction of a sphere using a light source (above and to the viewer's left). -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger\|Gerard Schildberger]] 20:02, 12 April 2012 (UTC) ----- ... And for some perspective levity on the perspective of the perspective: Without a light source, here are six views:   a front & back, top & bottom, left & right views of a small sphere against a light background: <pre style="font-size:1200%"> •••••• </pre> -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger\|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger\|talk]]) 16:47, 15 September 2017 (UTC)
