Thanks guys. Yeah, I tried different direct lights initially, but the shadows weren't blurring, they were just getting bigger or smaller depending on the placement of the objects. I tried it with two identical spheres, one close to the plane and one close to the light, but there was no difference in blur, which was odd. I put that much in the other thread but it seemed somewhat of a mystery.

SnarlyGribbly, that looks quite nice! I wonder if it would be possible to make the 'lumps' smaller without making the texture of the glass repetitive. Think sand blasted or etched, like the designs that are found on some beer glasses, it's much paler and has a much finer texture.
