We encourage you to share your renderings, it's easy to upload them to our Gallery

Rendering Lingo

Indirect Lighting - not directly caused by a light source (lamp), but resulting from light reflecting or bouncing from illuminated surfaces.
See an Example: Cove Lighting

Bump Map - A rendering technique that creates the illusion of depth on the surface using lighting and governed by the selected pattern.
See: Bump Maps
