Imaging Lingo - Hyporoid Illusion

This item has not yet been rated

Playing around with lingo and accidentally made this optical illusion. It looks like a star(ish)-shaped cylinder, but you can't figure out which end is the top and which is the bottom. The source has all the needed members in it. The source has been compiled in MX2004, I'm not sure what versions it will open in.
