Ive been keeping an eye on this post (mod) I'm glad to hear you wont be putting any of our videos on you tube. Jeez imagine the power I could unleash in a single keystroke LOL

Okay well I think you have enough info here on how to get started in maya. Books, maya help and asking around the site.

What I suggest you do is now just take the plunge no matter how frustrating things get and just build something, even if you consider it crappy. At the end of the day its how you go about finding things out for yourself as well...so come on dude, stop the complaining your eyes hurt if you read a manual and get some polys together and into the WiP section of the site!
