-->stephaniebt: are the seams as much of a nightmare as i've heard?  i've seen some texture artists express dismay over the high increase in seams, and i'm wondering how problematic you found that compared to working on unimesh textures?<--

It really threw me for a loop at at first, it's so very different. It takes some getting used to because the arm and leg seams aren't straight, they wind around the limbs, and then you've got the the difficulty of joining the legs to the torso at the top of the thighs. The eyes are way different, it was tricky for me to figure out where eyeliner went and to get it looking good when the eyes were closed. So yeah, pretty much a nightmare, LOL! I'm sure others will pick it up quickly though. I'm kind of a plodder. ;-)
