      I am new to using the soap skin plugin, and most of the video tutorials skip too quickly through the instructions.
      My first question is what is the significance of the X/Y ratio, and how do I know what I should try.
      The other frustrating experience I'm having is that "undo" or "ctrl z" doesn't seem to work with this plugin, so I have to start from scratch every time I don't get it right.

          Hi Dave,

          Yes, I did look at that, but I didn't find it especially helpful. I guess I just need to play with it more, but I was hoping that a few pointers might speed up my learning curve. I'm still having trouble using "undo", which makes playing around with it even harder.
