Perhaps you have a number of lights dotted around but not doing anything, and the one you were trying to set up was number nine? Just a thought. Of course this would still not explain why the render was coming out unlit....

Glad you like it. What I did is this, pose everything the way you want it and then just take a point light and  set it in front of the subject and play with the Dist End dial.

I am actually using it in Sreed mode because Opengl  does some weird shit  making vertices shoot out of models for no apparant reason. Also  I did not have more than 6 lights in the problem one and three or four of those were turned off. In the last one I posted there were five with only two that were on. I think it was just glitched to beat hell, I tried to load the  scene again to see if it was some things suggested in this thread but Poser locked up trying to load it.

here is the scene from the side just for grins.
