I regard the Poser-lighting tools as very powerful. Unfortunately I am not powerful enough to deal with them ;-) I don't need realistic light-shadows effects in my pictures. But even when I turn off the shadows, I always have problems with the lights. Depending from the view-ancle, the colors look different because of the lighting. I would like to have a neutral way of lighting, which lights up everywhere the same, makes it look a bit like people where in a room with normal lights. Can somebody help me setting the lights? Or is there some freebie-lighting like this? The light-setting within posers did not make me happy, and I am not skilled to do it myself :-( Thank you for your help :-) Totoro

have a look at the tutorial for global lighting on REMC's site (link supplied) or do a search for global lighting in freestuff, that's your best bet for realistic lighting within poser. Rob

Blackhearted's Pro-Luma lightset is a godsend for beautiful portrait-type pictures--and it's ridiculously cheap. The Poser lights boggled me too, until I learned to back way up in at least one camera view, until I could actually see the location of the individual lights and easily select one to reposition it.
