(lighting, odd angle…)

Shortcuts:
ctrl + alt:  camera orbit
ctrl + alt + shift: camera pan
ctrl + 0 (zero): super duper close up on face (prblm with getting back to normal view though)
holding shift while on prim and drag: clone the prim (very useful for setting up waypoints!)
ctrl+alt+D: open Client and Server Menu (useful for setting up video preferences)
fog ratio: preference / advance graf / set it to 10 (prblm with trick: system goes only til 4.0. How did Torley do it?) -very important for clear backdrop for pictures. 10.0 would really be better.
