This course will look at the fundamentals of modeling in Maya with an emphasis on creating good topology. We'll look at what makes a good model in Maya and why objects are modeled in the way they are.

Abbreviations

Okay, I think I'm starting to figure these out but why not start a thread for others who are as clueless as me.

I've recently figured out these

KUTGW = "Keep up the good work"
BTW = "By the way"
lol = "Laugh out loud"...I think but not totally sure.

What are some other Abb. that show up from time to time?

roflmao

Roling on (the) floor laughing my arse off

In my opinion

fyi

For your information

wtf

What the (flamingo)

"PP"

Per Particle (you may find this in maya quite often when messing around with particle effects and expressions)

Tut

Not really an abbreviation, but short for "tutorial"

Sim

Another 3d term, short for "simulation"

OMGWTFBBQ!

This was previously Some Guy's (I think...) signature; while we can disect it to create "oh my god, what the (flamingo), barbeque!," you might nonetheless want to have them elaborate upon it...
