    Click on the Show/Hide Lighting (Ctrl+Tab), start your animation, then move the lighting arrows around until you minimize the glare burst. Some trial and error is necessary because of the various shapes, bevels, extrusion depth, color schemes, etc. used in the animations. Since you've gotten this far, I'm sure you'll get the hang of it pretty quickly. Oh, and BTW, sometimes changing the color of the lights is more effective in reducing the glare than the position of the lights, alone.

    Check it out,

    You've solved the glare problem, but I think you need to use a lighter colour on one or two or even all three of your lights. It's very dark in there.

    Hi Alex,

    Post #6 and #14 both now have broken image links.
    It is for this reason that we ask you attach your images to posts at TalkGraphics.

    Thanks
    Steve
