Is it possible to make this neck work
I am new to rigging and do not understand much.
side rotations would be somewhere at the bottom, I might change model of that.. but anyway. would it be possible? Or I should recreate more simple neck?
Oh yes another smart question - how?

I have one little problem now. I don't know what I did, but I can no longer rotate local joint axes in maya 2013. In any project, scene, they are "frozen" from movement.
Joint local axes was not rotating due "soft selection" being turned on. Resetting Rotation tool does not turn soft selection off by default, so I wasn't checking tool itself.

Also this symbol appears on the top of that joint, I don't know what it is. I just want leg to stay in straight position, how to do it ? "set preferred angles" is set from leg joint to bottom.
I solved it by recreating "ik handle". It must do something with editing rotations after it was created.
Anyway, if I have more questions about this I'll ask here

Is it possible to make head follow object but at the same time rotate neck hierarchy accordingly ?
Neck limited information and correct rotations are already set, I am not sure how to connect everything.

By using ik spline it creates from the bottom of skeleton.
By using ik handle id adds only one rotation point, which is not enough, since my neck consists of 6 joints.
