That only prevents shadows on the object.

If you want also to prevent shadows from the wallpaper onto the other
objects, use no_shadow (it is not a finish thing like diffuse and ambient,
but an object modifier).


(BTW, does anybody know of a way to use this kind of setting in a radiosity
scene but to have no lighting from the image on the rest of the scene, as
ambient 1 is bond to produce ?)
