rendering help??

Hey people, I am working on a little project:

and I need some rendering tutorials for n00bs like me, like how do you add drop shadow in 3dsmax 5 ??? thanks

Using the Material Editor you can add a pic to the sene's background. I cant remember any of the shortcuts now. 3dmax changed soo much since the last time i used it - i feel scared opening it. It might attack me with it's power :)

p.s. use this site, it has all u need to know about the 3d world: http://www.3dlinks.com

you can use shadows by adding a spotlight or something like that and then click on "add shadow". You should know, if you can moddel a car like that! (did you really make it by yourself ?)
