Question on a particular tutorial...
https://www.highend3d.com/maya/tutorials/harley1/
I got through most of it okay, but I had a couple questions where I got stuck.
Question: Right underneath the poloygons part it says
"now select all the polygon letters and Center pivot, translate to abs(0,0,0), then freezetransform. Then hide all of them."
I selected them, Pivot, and how do I translate to abs(0,0,0)? I dont understand what they mean, and tried searching help files and stuff. nothing. Anyways, thanks!

(1) Select all the polygon letters
(2) Center the pivot (modify->center pivot)
(3) In the channel box set the each of the X, Y, and Z axis translations to 0.
(4) Freeze the transform (modify->Freeze Transform)
Hope that helps.
That'll do donkey... that'll do...
