Tips

When to use SurfaceGuis and Textures

You should use SurfaceGuis on all rectangular screens (screens that use Parts). They do not wrap properly around curves, so they're only good for flat screens.

You should use Textures on all other screens (spheres, cylinders, meshes, unions, etc.)

tip

You might be able to use SurfaceGuis on circular screens by using CanvasGroups and UICorners, but that might require a bit of playing around.

How to make screens glow in the dark

If you're using SurfaceGuis, you can set the LightInfluence property in the Properties window to 0. This will make the GUI always visible in the dark.

If you're using Textures, you can set the Color3 property to something really high (like 2000, 2000, 2000). This will make the texture glow in the dark. Note that the value you set it to will change how bright the texture is and you might need to set it to something else depending on how bright your game is.
