I got that code from here.
Everything's working except the balls! There is panels, splitpanes etc. Oh Look, no balls! I need to solve it like in an hour. Please help. I say again; please...

Sadly, this is what happens to people who are too lazy too learn.

If the original code actually worked, and the person you stole this off copied his entire project...Judging by your lack of effort and understanding, I conclude your problem is most probably a very basic one....*HINT* You cannot see what is not there!
