Unwanted shadow

[Juesed]

Hello all.
I have started working with 3D stuff only for a week or so and I enjoy it very much but there is one thing that is bugging me. Ever since I installed 3d max i noticed a shadow or whatever it is that just doesn't look right and after many unsuccessful attempts of removing it I gave up cause honestly I don't even know exactly where to look to fix this. I'm sure you will find this to be very noobish but then again I am a noob, here is the shadow that i want removed:




I don't have any lights so I don't understand why does it show a shadow. i only want to see the object with it's normal colour

When your scene has no lights, it provides automatic lighting otherwise you wouldn't see anything.

but even when I have shadows (I use skylight atm) it still shows like that

What do you expect it to look like?

[Severus]

you could make it self illuminated. Is it actually a sphere you want or just a disk maybe?

i want it to look like this. My friend told me he had the same problem at the start but he doesn't remember what exactly did he do to get rid of the shadow, that's why I'm asking you.

The best you can do is set the default lighting to 1 light instead of 2 from the viewport configuration settings. You will still have a shadow, but it will be static based on camera angle. Your screenshot suggests you have it set to 2 at the moment which means that the lights are static in relation to the scene and not the camera
