Sticky is (i think) that if this is very much asked that the mods make it a sticky so it keeps at the top of the forum. (i think)
And yes it is uv texturing in photoshop but also about uv snapshot and stuff.

a model w/o a gr8 texture is a polygon. with lots of faces. Or possibly it could be a bezier surface or a B-Spline surface.

I think the question how to make a uv snapshot pops up quite often.
