I have been working on this texture for a long time, I have around 200meg of different variations. When I apply different lights I see different things wrong and go back and fix them. What I want to know is there a standard on the light setup when I make a texture. I hope this made sence.

Thanks for any information

I'm not an expert or an authority on this subject, but in general

a product should look good with the default Poser light setup.

(The factory original.)  If you need a special lighting setup to

get a really fine effect, you should include that lighting setup

in the package.

White lights, no shadows.

Karen1573 has a light set used for checking seams, available in Freestuff, I believe.

Actually my freebie is seam-checking cameras, Paul :-)

In the Marketplace we test under global white lights. I personally use SnowSultans "Globall" lights, which are also in Freestuff.

I thank everyone for their answers, I do have the glowball lights. I'll use that from now on
Thank you
