Here's an animation that demonstrates the difference between built-in lighting (without using an FX file), the Lightened.fx effect file and the PhongShader.fx effect file.

You can see which FX file a layer is using by pressing F9.

I think the phong version looks best, but of course, that's a matter of taste.

The animation is based on the title sequence of Epic Movie.
