HI,

Wow!  Thanks for all the advice.  It will take me some time to try everything.

JC,  I have read/listened to many of your tutorials and got your book!  I appreciate all the time you have devoted to the subject.

I'll be honest, farkwar, the reason I am trying to do radiosity is to speed things up as I don't have the patience to fake it with multiple positioning of numerous lights(and haven't researched how).  I may have to buckle down and do that if these experiments don't work, but being able to take one or two lights and click a button and have the room light up just makes me giddy.  I don't mind render time too much, if the initial setup is easier.  I may be off here, as again I am new to the ability of radiosity, GI or AO and am not sure if I am just better off doing the fake GI/Radiosity way.

jfbeute, I do have 4 walls on my littlle room.  I do appreciate the advice on lighting with sunlight.  By the time I am done I would like something akin to a, on location glamour/erotic shoot.

As of now, I am still getting that orange tint coming off the floor.  I may have to change it, although, once the texture is resized, I think it'll look great.

Okay, I am off now.  Thanks to all that helped.  Any other hints/tips for lighting indoors, whether GR, GI or fake, let me know.  I may do both renders and post them here for everyone.

Thanks.

Fyre
