I did a UV layout of my sea creature and went to attempt painting and realized just how SLOPPY my layout was. So after weeks of contemplating I finally decided I should redo the UV's and spend some actual time on laying them out.

My question is, can I remove the previous UV's that I have sitting in my UV editor? Or am I pretty much stuck with these UV's? I hope I can redo them.

nevermind, didn't notice that under Polygons in the UV interface that there was a "Delete UV's" option

you could also just planar/etc map them again, you don't have to delete them.

thanks for that info, I'm just going with a fresh start though. I'll keep that in mind when I lay out uv's on another project and rush through them the first time and have to go back and redo them, haha.
