Subdiv Uv Mapping, Again

[8i8]

hi experts,,,
so i had a subdiv model... i converted it to polyproxy and moved around some uv's: i unfolded some that i mapped before, and moved and sewed them together (basically unfolded the uv's of the ear and attached them to the ear-hole in the face). but when i returned to standard mode most of them jumped back to where they were before, as if i didn't just spend hours moving them around...
any ideas what i'm doing wrong?
thanx

it's on days like this that i think i should convert to max...

when you select the subdiv head and switch to poly mode and look into the channel box you will see under the section "shapes" : ....shape1. click on it, and then look in the section "imputs" in the channel box. There you see " poly to Subdiv1". click on that and you then will see "UV Treatment" . There is written "Keep Subd". When you click on that you will get a scroll down menu. Choose "Inherit UVs from Poly". That should fix it.

I hope this is understandable and will help.
