Its like wings and so much more! ... so much more confusing! So far I've managed to create some kind of dimpled cube with some kind of crown on top of it. Does anyone know where I can find some good tutorials to help me tame this beast?

Kemal I think he is our silo disiple. It is similar to Wings but has those extra tools and you can smooth and unsmooth. Great program I did the Tut on the bird thing on Silo home page. There are a few Wings tools I like better the extrude edge is better in Wings.

Hey, I'm here, I'm here, damn it , I actually have a job, lol ! Hey MG, I'm glad you are trying it, great little app !!! :D Anyways, what happend there ??? :P Usualy that happens when you have the same edge shared by more then 2 polygons (faces). Subdividing algorithm does not like them ! It happens to noobs a lot, as it hapend to me too, not long ago, now I hardly ever get them... To get rid of them, just select those faces and delete the ("crown" thingies) and re-build your geometry. You can also undo everything or start from the scratch, just play with it and you will be making things in no time :D Search the Silo forum for tutorials, and there is couple of them on their website, good luck, buddy !!!! :D

What might help is the fact that you can customise the UI. There's a thread on the SILO site about it and some already customized by other users for you to d/load. One thing you should know is that you may need to 'REFINE CONTROL MESH' before you export your finished work.
