Solution Requests
: "I have a problem with my balls: as you see here one of them is a lighter shade of Grey than the others. This ball is a null copy of one of the other balls but it doesn't have any text inside of it, and I can't get rid of it no matter how many times I delete it. Has anyone dealt with this before?"
