i see this said a lot, but i have no idea what it means because i've only used Blender for UV mapping.  that is, i have nothing to compare it to.  and maybe i don't know certain features exist at all.  could you say what about the UV mapping tool makes it better than other, average mappers?

Lol I'm not exactly qualified to answer you b/c I haven't used blender, but the standard standalone UVmapper round these parts seems to be UVmapperPro which is really great but doesn't do seam making and the kind of flattening that other programs do. Does blender flatten out maps very well or do you still need to pin and scoot?
