[yt-users] Sinkparticles in the Volumerendering

[Geoffrey So]

I've seen some volume rendering that uses some sort of "glyphs" or symbols
to represent particles, but in the case of Enzo's numerous particles, they
may have to be vastly under sampled, not sure if it is doable in YT.

Just thinking out loud.
