Very awesome :p Very comic book like. Oh and Billy, this may sound silly, but do you have your graphics set to max in SL? I useally have them set to min, so It's always an amazing site when they are up :p

Yeah, I recently turned on Local Lighting for the first time, and it was awesome. I can't imagine what shininess and bumps would do for SL. It'll have to wait 'til I get more RAM and a better vid card.

PS--is Gravity no more now that Chinatown is up? It was such a cool build. I miss Max :(

Launa "Just photoshoppin'" is like Michaelangelo "Just poking a marble block".

Just a suggestion, but you'll find shine/bump is more important than local lighting. Without shine, you're missing at least 40-50% of the visual experience in SL. If you have to choose one or the other, go with shine and axe the local lighting. Shine is less taxing on your system anyway.
