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

Im Back!

Hey everyone, I don't know if any of you care, but for those that remember me, hello!

The reason I was gone was because I was getting into the partying crowd and friends that were really into the whole drug scene... I dabbled... ended up doing pretty much everything. I realized that I was going down a bad road, so now I'm back here because it's a safe outlet for my time.

Thanks for caring user added image, and I hope that I can start submitting my 3d works here again soon!

cheers,
Matt

it's always good to get out and party now and then, have a good time, do some drinking, and all that fun stuff... but as long as you don't make it your life you'll be ok. You can't let drinking and drugs take over your life. Glad to see you back.

I don't find it unusual at all in any way. It's becoming more popular among younger people these days, it's all around them, school, parks, hanging out at a friends house, older brothers or sisters, the internet (evil internet when not monitored by an adult when a kids using it). Everyones getting into things at a much younger age than they used to. I know I'm only 24 but even when I was his age it wasn't as bad as it is now. Maybe it has something to do with a lot of 15 and 16 year old moms these days with their bad parenting skills, or should I say, no parenting skills. Hell high schools around here are putting in nurseries so the kids can go to school and not leave their babies at a daycare all day and can stop in and see the kid between classes. But thats going off track of the subject. It's possible, maybe it's less noticeable around where you live but everywhere in NY I've been I see it all over the place. Oh and I know you're saying somethings wrong with that and just so you know I'm not completely disagreeing with you on that at all, just felt like ranting.
