Hey guys! I was just wondering something... If you could choose some new free tutorials, what would you choose, or what's your weakest thing in Maya? :bgreen: :bgreen:

Oh, btw: that's called the bend-wagon effect.... If one thing about many options sticks out... the majority would choose that option sooner then all other... If I would say 'what's your favourite number, 93 or 97, and if 2 people voted 93 and 0 97, you would have a much bigger chance that the next person is prejuced by that and chooses 93 as well user added image

. And it's the fact that I wanted dynamics to win :p.

dynamic easy... only requires thinking
texturing hard... i'm more of a technician than artist, so i need a texturing tut badly.

yeah, except you can't see results of the poll until after you've voted, unless you go look, so I don't think your theory applies, Dirack. user added image

oh, and we have a basic texturing tutorial at SimplyPhotoshop. We have UV layout tutorials here.

You might want to check out the Dynamic Constraints tutorial if you're looking for dynamics.
