Hi Gary,

Agreed. Something like gray works well in my experience. Don't forget in
techniques like anaglyph and chromadepth color takes on another meaning–it
encodes depth or separation. It's useful to keep this in mind.

perfect spheres drawn quickly. But, in immediate mode, you are correct.
To create the highest-quality movies or images, make sure you ray trace
your images. This can be done with the 'ray', and 'png' commands or as
movie creation time if 'ray_trace_frames' is set.
To reinitialize PyMOL just run the "reinitialize" command.
