Complex UV Layout in Maya
Over the last couple of years UV layout in Maya has changed for the better. In this course we're going to be taking a look at some of those changes as we UV map an entire character

I prefer more the first mate.
Has a lot of white space (if you get me).

Second one feels constrained, and not as complex nor eyecatching as the first. I´d go with the first.

Heh, hey ultragames, its lookin awesome.. sorry i missed this thread. Anyways, the armitrex.. sounds cool user added image. But yea, white space is used in advertisements in adds and stuff.. it just makes things stand out.. other than that though, the second one you made was really nice.. just the first one was nicer just because of the white space.. the second is a good composition though. Anyways.. as for the last flash one you made.. that is cool user added image.. i like the glow. Anyways keep it up and i cant wait to see what you do with this site.

People always think my work is flash. They never investigate for 3 secs. (Not that its bad) It is not flash. It is 3 animated GIF's, and a Javascript for the mouse-over/out. Glad you like it. Im not sure what im goign to do for this site, but its goign to be bigger and better that DD3 is. I had to start a new site, because Digital Designs is to widly used. Armitrex is a one of a kind. Right out of my head. (Than again, I thought Digital Designs was too.)

Not flash hey? Your right.. cool stuff user added image. Just one thing, you may want to make it flash as you would lower loading time by like 80%. I am not a big fan of flash.. but for a small thing like that it would probably be your best bet. To load those gifs is longer than for flash to generate those images.
