What's shown in the preview is affected by your current lighting set-up, and your image above looks like the default 3 tone Poser lighting. Looking at the first couple of images in the tutorial (and the comment about rendering taking a long time with a lot of lights and shadows on the last page) it looks like mobius was using a global illumination light set, which produces a much more even effect (hence the slight gradient in the texture preview). However, this shouldn't stop reflections from working. Both PoserPros.com and Runtimedna.com have Poser 5 specific forums. You can also find some useful info on the ShaderMaker forum at Pixels3D [link above], because that is the underlying technology behind P5 materials. Hope this helps. Mark
