Hi people, 

How do I get the hair in poser not to glow as if it is lit by other lights ? 

If I have the body lighting right the hair is way to bright , and if the hair is lit right then the body is to dark . 

any hints please

Well, I can think of two things.  One is you render them seperately and then shop the hair onto the body in postwork.

The other idea and this is just a guess because I've never used that feature is gather (check the stickies on the top of the forum for links to it).  If you could use a dark enough color or a negitive one, that might work.  Or you could use a lot of tiny, dark point based lights with a very close max distance, but that could be a ton of work depending on the hair you chose.

I'd suggest doing it in post work.  To make it easier, do it against a green or blue background and delete the links to the texture on facial regions and make them the same color as your background.

thanks winterclaw

I already do them in Photoshop now after doing 2 renders, 1 lighting setup for the body and  the second for the hair

I was hoping that i just had a setting wrong some where , seems if you put lights behind the figure all the hair glows , the light doesn't know there is a head blocking it , backlighting is not very good in poser .
