How to shade the background?

How do I get the background like this: http://weblogs.java.net/blog/campbell/archive/images/photocube.large.png

Is it some kind of overlay (or “underlay”)?

Just put a textured quad in the background that’s big enough to cover it. Be sure to make it immune to camera changes.

Good idea, thanks! Thought there was any built in method for this, but the quad works perfect.

That was easy made by putting the quad before initiating the camera, then it becomes immune to camera changes. :slight_smile:
