JPGs are like full bright alphas (if you're using that).

Also make sure you're using PNG with an alpha channel. The darker the alpha, the less the spec.JPGs are like full bright alphas (if you're using that).

Check out the documents about specularpower.
I found that playing around with the Specular Power and the Specular Color's Alpha gave me the look and feel I was going for even when using JPGs.
Didn't know about using a PNG as Eric points out. But it makes sense if you want different areas more shiny than others on your model when using only one texture.

The higher it is the more shiny it'll be. Just check the materials docs.
