And thank you for your own feeback :)  Agreed that cloth looks a little strange.  Trying to do that scene strictly in Poser hurt me so bad that I'm ready now to buy Vue to do a lot of the scene building and all the rendering (I'd buy 3dsMax if it and Poser integrated a little better).  I really, really wish I could get more than 1/2 (one half!) FPS when moving around in that scene.  There's six or seven dynamic cloth simulations to get the scattered bits of junk and the sheets and pillow cover.  Rendering one angle of that scene at middle quality (I think 1 raytrace bounce) took about fifteen hours!!  >.<

I think the progress you're making with lighting and shadows over the past few days is wonderful, you are definitely on the right track.
