Used it for my fish in the tournament thing we are currently doing and it made life much easier. I finally had a UV layout that was useable to paint with in PS and it went back on the model with only a little tweaking needed. Combined with the SM tut on UV wrapping (with the rabbit) and I finally have a little more understanding of this UV mapping lark. Thanks!

Danny gave a link above to a GREAT explanation for the reason why we are having these problems, (THANKS DANNY!!!)
...anyway, the guys' friend wrote a plugin for Maya 4.0 that cures the issue, however I believe both of us are on Maya 4.5....
Though the theory can be implemented by hand quite easily, my fear is that I might be wasting my time because I cannot believe we are the only two with this issue.
So for poops & giggles, I'm going to try posting at CGTalk to see what others have done.
..yeah, yeah, I know, it's dangerous to post there, but hopefully, my kung-fu will prevail
hehe...Wish me luck, and I'll post any help I get in the proper sectionfrom now on...

have you e.g. tried SmoothUV... it should work with 4.5 -->
https://perso.wanadoo.fr/coyhot/Code_SmoothUV.htm
it is in french, but you can get some of it translated throu this site... -->
https://babelfish.altavista.com/
(otherwise english is included in the downlabled file)
I believe it is on Highend also, but I can't remenber were...
there is also some goodies on this site "Creating High Res Polygonal Models"... where Ben Bathen comes with some good things regarding UV...
https://www.benbathen.com/Tutorial.html
the tutorial and melscripts can be downloaded on this site...
https://www.benbathen.com/MelScripts.html
I don't know if it will solve your problem... otherwise we could hope that Imre Tüske will update the plugin which is used on Oliver's site...
