The yellow cast is easy enough... just set the Ambient color of the
bulb's material to yellow and the Ambient Value to 1 (or more if Poser will
let you.)

For illumination, it's usually best to put a spotlight just below the
bulb and raise its Angle End to a high value.  (You might have
to increase the Max value of this parameter; for some reason it's
normally limited to 160 degrees but will actually go wider than that.)

Sometimes you need a pair of spotlights at the same location,
one pointing down and the other pointing up, to get a full illumination ...
it sort of depends on how the lamp is meant to work.
