Where is this Phong for which you speak? I'm using Blender 2.78b ... I cannot find such a thing called Phong. Can someone post a screencap of where this Phong setting is? Is it something I have to active in User Prefs first?

Richardus Raymaker Phong, why do the call it Phong ?
It's just PNG file format. would be better if the just say PNG. -
Kallah Seems to me *they* want to be different LOL I find it rather confusing myself. Anyway, Phong is suppose to be a material setting for Blender (and the other programs listed) but I can't find any such thing in Blender atm. I'm hoping they do a screenshot to show me exactly where that is. They do use other weird terms for stuff like diffuse, specular, etc and those are wicked confusing IMHO ... I don't know why they don't just name stuff the normal names ;o/

Richardus Raymaker Noo, your right. i get always confused. I just remember that someone explained it in the past. Not sure what it's doing or what you can do with it.
It's under the materials tab. I found one under specular.

Kallah There are a few places one could pick material so I don't know which one they're talking about. Can you take a pix of that?

Richardus Raymaker Here's where i found the above one.

Madeliefste Oh Phong has nothing to do with png. Phong is about how the light breaks on your object. You can see this very well on a sphere.
I when you disable the phong shading the lights breaks on every edge in the model.
Sometimes it is useful, when an object needs a real hard edge, you can just select that edge and disble the phong shading. It's a simple thing to do, and the object wil profit from it in all light circumstances.
