Richard,
It's practically impossible to take photos of oil paintings without some pinpoint glare problems, even for professional photographers who take photos of paintings for museums. This is especially true in the dark areas.
The answer to the problem is Adobe Photoshop. I personally go over all photos taken of my work and retouch the glare spots using that wonderful computer program. It's easy to do and very effective. I've found that printers and others are very reluctant to touch your art. You save them grief by doing it yourself.
if you don't have Photoshop, you can save a lot of money by buying an older version, or an older version of Photoshop Elements.
