i recently graduated and saw a modeler friend of mine, he was telling me how our professors didnt really teach us things that we should know going out into the industry (big surprise) one of the things he said was edge looping, he said it was essential. i have no idea what hes talking about, anyone have a clue?

Also search highend forums, this question has been asked many times over the years and you will probably find many other links.

You should check out MJ Polytools in the MEL script section as it has an edge loop function
