The technical page I linked explains they decided to go with seed crystallization technique, because it gave the greatest variety of pictures. The other methods provided little difference, and this being a fun project rather than a scientific one, they were after as many pretty pictures as possible. The rest of the site has plenty of scientifically accurate pictures.

Oh, and tell beest he's a microscopy snob.
