SimPosium Lighting Tutorial

This is something that I picked up in the TSR Skinning forum. Thanks Dr. Pixel.
Everyone has seen the lighting options in SimPose, but have you ever tried to use them? No? I didn't either until now.
Using the lighting is really quite easy, and the lighting is very versatile. You can use just a touch of lighting for a slightly 3D affect, or you can use some drastic lighting affects.
1. The first step is of course to open Sim Posium.
2. Then, under the first tab, "Lights/Camera", choose "Ambient Lighting."

3. Click on the button that says "Change," and select a color, and click "OK.". This color will be used for your shading color.
(Note: if you don't see enough choices, click "Define Custom Colors," and pick a color. Then, click "Add to Custom Colors.")
|
 |
4. Now, in the pull down menu select "Light 1".
|
 |
5. Pick a color for your light.
6. Then, adjust the "Direction" and "Elevation."
|

|
7. Repeat step three for "Light 2" and "Light 3."

These are examples of the variations of lighting possible in SimPosium
