First off, a HUGE thanks to everyone that downloaded my first batch of freebies. They've been up only 2 days and have already hit over 2800 downloads! Way more than I ever expected, but quite an ego boost to say the least. That said, I'd like to try my hand creating some textures for the next set I will be releasing, but am having a bugger of a time figuring out this whole UV mapping deal. Anyone know of a link to some really basic UV Mapper tutorials to get me started? Please assume I know absolutely nothing about how it works (you won't be far wrong!), so the more basic the better. Thanks in advance. :)

Quoll on the TOTAL UV forum at RDNA did a good series a while back and Sharen of SAMS3D did a tut which you can view at their site. There is also a uvmapping forum here at Renderosity which frankly I haven't kept up with (shame on me.)

thanks BM, I'll check 'em out.

Yeah, I especially recommend the easy to follow tut that Sharen did. I am a neophyte at UV mapping too, but she had me up and running mapping my models in no time.

Sorry, the tut is off the site, but if you still want it I can set you up with a download, just let me know. Sharen

Zhann - My links? Seem ok to me and the wife. :) Sharen - If I could take a peek at your tut, I'd be mighty happy.

Oh I could so use a basic tut, I haven't even tried UV mapper yet. Thanks too.

I saved the tut and associated materials for further reference just in case Sharen can't find her original copy of her tut,lol.
