that ball was proly done in either PS 7 or fireworks MX because of the gausian blur effect on the top shine in the ball. Look at the ball closly and you could proly make an exact replica of it easily.

Are you wondering about the design of the ball (lots of tutorials in the Design forum) or about the 3D engine (lots of tutorials in the Best Of Kirupa forum)?
