Bright outdoor setting:
Use BB"s sphere
Use One infinite true white light at 55% (and please stay away of those IBL Lights)
Render with IDL. (You have Poser 8, so no Gamma Correction)

Joe public uses an IBL ligh AND a point light.
I recomend against that.
Simple reason? There is ONLY one sun, and ONE only.
Why, oh why, use an IBL light that does not behave like the sun does, but then need a second light to correct that, but does NOT behave like sunlight either?
Indoors:
Sorry, too many variables, depends heavily on the scene.
But in Poser8 you will not have the fantastic preview of the IDL light, as you would in Poser9 or PP2012.
And sorry, but I am against using someone elses lights, as they do not care for what is in YOUR scene.. You will allways have to adapt
And with a Joke; It is not by going to Mc Donalds that you will learn how to cook. :-)
Mc Donals can be acceptable, OK, but nothing more, and you will not learn a lot.
And as I said before, and others repeated; Most light sets out there are from before IDL.
So forget them. They wil do more harm then good.
