I like orbs but they need not be made to look like the earth. I think
something like a crystal ball would be better.  In the one above, trying
to make the flame spell out an "m" just makes the flame itself look kind
of dorky. Better would be a flame that looks like a flame, maybe kind of
wispy, and not trying to spell anything out.
