    I have no idea how to accomplish this, or if it is even possible.

    But on the model I attached, i need the computer screen to have a soft blue glow, and the CPU on light to also glow, but a darker blue. If someone could do that for me, or can tell me how to. That'd be awesome.
    Oh and would it be possible to light up the 3 LED's on the keyboard (or 1, the Num lock).

      It sure is possible with KT to accomplish what you're looking after... πŸ˜‰

      And it's only a few adjustments you need to make to do it... πŸ˜„

      Sorry for being lazy here, but instead of giving you a long written description, I've attached the new 'skippy' as well as the KT-file, enabling you to see what it takes... πŸ˜‰

        Can't see any lights added, so yu must've made the surface emit light?

          Precisely. Make sure to use simple surfaces however because they are all triangulated and if there are many triangulated faces emitting light, it can slow down your render.

                Are you trying to say something about PC's with that blue screen of death, Frederik? πŸ˜†

                  Actually not... πŸ˜†
                  It was just an idea that came to my mind...
                  While I rendered the scene I was actually thinking about replacing it with your KT wallpaper... πŸ˜‰

                    Great render. The lighting works really well, but the wood texture on the desk could be better, apart from that though. Great stuff! πŸ˜‰
