It might be an installation issue, which isn't nearly as easy as it 
should be yet.  Right now, (a) you need the ipython branch of the 
pythree.js repo, not the master branch, (b) you need to make sure 
three.js and pythree.js is installed and aliased in the right places (as 
in the instructions at the top of pythreejs.js), (c) you can't be using 
the latest IPython master, but it also may not work on the most recent 
released IPython (I've been developing just behind the latest master).

It works fine for me on IPython commit 
fa61a81f879293895127f40004fe6cdbd60f1d0d, pythree.js commit 
a432be4628e4a0f92ab3651f9aa60ca4329c50ca, and three.js r69.

I'll be working more on the installation difficulties in coming weeks, 
and I'm also working on some IPython commits to make it work in the 
latest IPython master.

Thanks,

Jason
