Why cant they do two mug shots like the police use, one front one side on the head camera, no hair and standard default lighting? Because nobody would buy them. Almost nothing looks good in Poser's default lights, and using them (particularly with a bald model) in a promo can really kill sales. As for camera angles, well, nothing looks good with Poser's default camera settings (particularly the face camera; it gives a really icky "fish eye" distortion). Runtime DNA has a whole bunch of very good, high-quality light sets in their freebie section. Go download them, and you'll be very pleased with how easy it becomes to get good lighting. The RDNA free sets have LOADS of options, colors, etc., so it'll just be a matter of clicking and trying until you find one you like. Camera settings are pretty simple to learn. There are a few tutes on the topic around, but if you post to the Poser forum and ask folks for tips or to point you to tutorials on Camera settings, you'll probably get a lot of help. bonni
