I was interested in rendering a few unusual datasets and wondered if (and
how) anyone has created images:

* Where points are rendered as spheres of fog similar to the image linked
below. Here I used transparent spheres which roughly created the effect of
an even fog, but doesn't give appropriate increase in density at the
centre of each sphere

(I imagine that the effect would look like the opposite of the new angle
modulated transparency for spheres)

* Where the material appears radiant (ie to create a glowing drug in a
binding site)?

Thanks

Ben
