The "Flare" tut I mentioned I am sure I found at an indevidual's site and haven't seen it since (last fall) but there is also a tut at NerdStuff on "Censor Stars" that uses spheres to do a simular effect to make Censorship stars. By playing with the two methods and tweeking things around you can make some cool optical effects right in Poser. For the flare effect I forgot to mention it works best with the 'flare' light positioned Behind the cammera. So from the center of the scene it would be: 1- Object to be centered in flare 2- Transparent panel to generate the flare 3- Camera 4- Light aimed at 'flare panel' Then just tweek the angles and distances
