Critism is always welcome. I need all the help I can get. LOL Well here's my first pix. Definetly need help with the lighting. Thanks.

 

 

Welcome!  You might not get a lot of response around here of the weekends.

To start with the image you posted is way over exposed.  This can be adjusted this on the fly in Lux.  The more info you post about your render and how it was set up will help us help you, such as type of lighting you used etc, screen captures of the setup helps.  there are some tutorials on Paolo's site, link http://www.preta3d.com .

You can also check out, http://www.facebook.com/RealityPlugIn , http://twitter.com/preta3d and https://plus.google.com/106625816153304163119.

I would also suggest reading or Goggling information on photography such as lighting setups and camera settings etc. Rendering with Lux is like using a real camera in the real world, forget about all the Poser and Studio tricks you won't need them here.

I kind of thru this together in hopes that it would point you in the right direction and give you an idea of what to study.   Hope it helps... 

Keep it simple to start with, use mesh lights and stay away from spots and distant lights.
