I wanna create a visible Bulklight! How can I do this? When I add a spot the whole area is bright up but all I want is a little red light ... Any ideas?

Try a radial light, with the colour set to the red you want. Scale it down intil it fits the object it's supposed to be on and sink it just less than halfway into the surface. (If you go halfway (or more) the light will look odd and might not light up the surface). Alternately, if you d/loaded Akisiel's additional primitives for Poser some while back, there is a bowl in there that has two surfaces (inner and outer). Apply a red glass material to the outer surface and convert the inner surface into a light source Paul

Also, click on the E to edit the light. You can set the color, fuzziness and brightness there. Also, under A, make it "surface visible."

Also set the fall off to ranged, that way it won't spread light in a 360 degree radious.

Do atleast one thing a day that scares the hell outta ya!!
