oh ok, sorry
im not that big on the installation of GI Joe, i had a few problems with it when i installed it, try the link NitroLiq posted earlier

three point lighting:
basially, this is a very simple but important lighting technique, i cant remember the xact names, but you have a main light which casts shadows (using the technique above) then you have a back light which would light the scene from the back (low intensity) and a fill light coming in from the side (low intensity again) it just fills the scene up with light like its natural lighting (but of course GI Joe does this anyway but sometimes you can achieve the same effect using 3point)
if you give fill light a slight pale orange colour, and the back light a violet colour it wud look pretty good, like the sun and mmm user added image
its hard to explain, try doing a search for it on the web, im sure you'll find something
