Yeah, second that post on texturing and UVs, and if there is now a possibility of control of scaling textures would be a bonus.

Thanks for the suggestions, I have a few small projects to get through, then I will see about getting some quick mini-tutorials up on HDRI first, then clipmaps, and then some of the other topics you have suggested.
Hang in there folks. Help is on the way!

There is an "auto-focus" and "focus to" feature built into Studio to help with blurring.
I need to see your file to determine the illumination problem.

Thanks very much Tyrone!!
One more VERY important thing:
--> "Handling" Normals... I have major problems with some models.
Black, black and black Polygons. Spend hours trying to resolve the issue.
Not allways with succes.
So, maybe give some tips and tricks. What Plug ins to use to clean up normals etc.
I guess most of those polygon normal problems come from bad modelling, but still. My stuff renders on other renderers just fine.
