Thanks Michael, I hope my examples serve to add even more enjoyment to the MoI user's modeling experience.
I couldn't really find too many (if any) examples out there of what could be done with the lighting, so I took it upon myself to 'grope' around the settings.
The option values can be so fickle with a lot of interplay.
Future modes and UI settings, now I'm really excited! :-) We may yet get Zebras!

A simple solid shading with no specular or shadows. Used for applications where a (high pixel size) screen capture of the Moi view port can be Color Ranged in Photoshop or vector auto-traced in a layout program like CorelDRAW or Illustrator.
I will often create 3-D type or basic objects to be used in my graphic design, assigning unique color values to the sides and faces.
(Moi screen capture, auto-traced in vector layout program and assigned fills and outline strokes.)
For more complex graphics requiring edge detail I prefer to use Moi's PDF export feature, but PDF export does not (cannot) produce clean solid representative closed vector (EPS) faces that are view-dependent. This method has been a quick solution, and all that's required is to us Moi's screen capture script set for higher pixel dimensions.
