Hi orangemittens, I've decided to start over since I was at a dead end, but I'm afraid I didn't go far on my second try. When I started the mapping process, I couldn't select my mesh to create seams. Only the EA shadow can be selected now, for some obscure reason. My experience with Photoshop tells me there's a locked layer somewhere. Here's a pic to show you what I mean. Perhaps you can spot an anomaly somewhere. Oh and there's a small vertice in the middle of my box mesh, I don't think it belongs there, but I cannot select it alone.

I followed what you said and I'm really starting to wonder if maybe my Blender is not corrupted It worked on your side, but when I do it, when I select all the vertices, some won't highlight, and stay unmovable. Also, when I select only the front face of the mesh, which takes a hundred clicks to grasp, the same vertices are displayed incorrectly (only showing red). So I think the vertices on the left side of my mesh are not connected. But I don't understand why it worked on your side.

It does look as if I missed a few Seams, but all of the vertices turned red. And I tried a few times, I always get the same map. I also tried to delete the map to start over but selecting and pressing delete doesn't seem to work. The blend is HERE. A million thanks

Thanks for helping like this, orangemittens. I hope it's okay if I ask for help every step of the way. I'm sure that once I get one done the following meshes will be a lot easier to complete.
I have another question... I'm at step 61... If you look at the image you posted above, you'll notice I don't have an orange square on the upper left corner when I click l. There's only a bunch of lines and pressing l will select 1 of 2 independent lines. I think it's because I panicked on the previous step and I might have created a bunch of weird maps. So I wonder if I can select all the vertices in the UV/Image editor box and delete them, and then repeat the previous steps up to step 61.
Also, I realized that my mesh is way too big, I miscalculated. When is it too late to change the size? I'm guessing when the mapping process begins?

It's on mediafire. I've never used that service before, so bear with me lol. I think if you click here...

Good evening orangemittens,
I seem to be stuck at step 57. I followed the previous steps without any problems ; selected all vertices of the Cube mesh, turned them red using Mark Seam, then followed up with selecting all the vertices and clicked Unwrap. But nothing happens. There should be a new window popping up with the mesh map, only mine already had a window on the left side, and it's another User Persp. Is there a way to make the proper window appear?
