I hear you on the lighting. When I was working on "Incantation" a few months back (which has 5 candles as the primary sources of light), I remember having to do seven renders (one for each light source, one darkish ambient and one brighter ambient), and having to blend it all with layer opacities, layer masks, massive overlays and such (and then I lost half the detail in post-work -- go figure). A real pain in the @$#, all because Poser is crap for lighting. I'm hoping to get Cinema4D/Poser4.03 all figured so I never have to do that again. Take care; Chas
