Yes, just use a texture and make it an "emitter" material:

Hi Ramy,

The other day we had a similar topic over SCF (I know you are member there, too). Here is what I came up in Twilight with:
http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtop ... 84#p310184

It is a single image (I just grabbed it from the net) and set to emit light. It works pretty well. The black part will not emit anything of course (unless there is black light)
:shock:

In Kerkythea, there's even negative light. :shock: I haven't seen that in nature.

the name "black light" normally refers to UV lights used to illuminate fluorescent pigments.
