1. What's your grip style?
Clawy-like. I really like the shape of the xornet/spawn and wmo, the g400 shape just feels off to me. It just isn't nearly as agile, and there's no grip so picking it up is awkward.
2. What's your sensitivity?
Well, my wmo was 400dpi and i used 2.2 in CS:S so about 45cm/360.
The xornet freaks out when I make fast swipes, while the wmo only slowed down a bit.
3. What's your maximum budget?
Give me every option.
4. Do you want additional buttons?
Cool, but not necessary.
5. What games do you play?
Well I play every kind of game, but for shooters I play cs and it's variants mostly.
6. Do you mind about prediction?
I'd rather not have any, but if it's really minor, then maybe that's ok. I could be totally wrong, I've never used a mouse with prediction before
so I might hate it. Shape, lod, and tracking speed are more important.
7. Lift off Distance
I never thought lift off distance mattered, until I got the xornet. With firmware 75 it seems to be about 2mm, which is ok.
Less might be better but I'm alright with it now.
Are there any other good mice that are shaped like the wmo?
Should I just get a lighter colored mousepad?
What about the spawn?
I'd suggest any of the mice from Zowie or the Roccat Savu.
Here's a comparison of all the mice shapes that I made; try to make your decision on ergonomics from this, or go try one out in the store.

1. What's your grip style?
Palm

2. What's your sensitivity?
Medium-low sens

3. What's your maximum budget?
-

4. Do you want additional buttons?
Would like atleast 2/3 side buttons

5. What games do you play?
Dota 2 and firstperson shooters

6. Do you mind about prediction?
Yes

7. Other relevant information:
I prefer a small mouse with light weight. I used a friends razer SC2 mouse the other day and loved the shape and feel of it, any opinions on this mouse? Or are there better mice with a similar shape and feel? I like having a good laser for the FPS gaming

here is my friends mouse http://www.razerzone.com/licensed-peripherals/starcraft-ii-razer-spectre/

I used to play with a grip less G9 the shape and feel was amazing however the side buttons were impossible to use and this got to me.

Look at Art's photo two posts back and take your pick from the shapes of the mice there.
At a medium low sens you'll want an optical sensor, as the accel of 9500,9800 mice would still be noticeable.
CM Storm Spawn, DeathAdder, G400 all use perfect sensors, which seems like what you're looking for in a pure FPS mouse, so I'd suggest one of those.

How about the Zowie EC2 Evo? It's designed for smaller hands.

1. What's your grip style?

Palm grip

2. What's your sensitivity?

1800dpi currently. I now have an Eyefinity setup and think something in the 3200-3600 range is in order. Optical only.

3. What's your maximum budget?

~$60US

4. Do you want additional buttons?

I can get by with 3, ideal would be 5, 7 would be acceptable but no more than that.

5. What games do you play?

Mainly FPS RTS RPG

6. Do you mind about prediction?

Indiferent

7. Other relevant information:

For the last 5 years I have used a Razer Diamondback 3G. It is the best mouse I have ever used. It still works great but I know its last will be coming sooner than later. Before it I used a Logitech 3G. I wasnt real happy with the laser so optical only from here on out. Also since I palm grip a larger heavier mouse is in order. I have a Razer Salmosa also and find it way too small and light. I only mention this as I was really liking the CM Storm Spawn until I found out how small/short it is. Also no Logitech as their new scroll wheels just plain SUCK.

I forgot that it only went up to 2300 DPI. It also weighs 97g, which is a lot more than your salmosa.

There's also the deathadder and the Roccat Savu. The Deathadder is the heaviest of them.
