to make all spheres smaller, try something like this:

set sphere_scale, 0.3

play around with the 0.3 bit to get the size you want.

last time i checked, you could only have one sphere_scale per object, so
if you want different sized spheres in the same picture (i don't think you
do), you may need to do something like this:

# show normal spheres for ARGs
show spheres, resn arg
# show small spheres for ILEs
create iles, resn ile
show spheres, iles
set sphere_scale, 0.3, iles

(i'm on a windows box with an old version of PyMOL right now, so i don't
know if that last bit has changed recently)
