You know, you could just enter Steve Smith, or John Doe or Maximus Prime or any other fake name you choose. Internet forums are completely anonymous and there is no way for the registration form to know if you're being truthful about your name or not. I still don't understand why you're nervous about people knowing your name though? Forums are a great way to network and build up a collection of friends who share your same interests. If you insist on keeping your identity a secret, you're only hurting yourself. But, it's up to you.

Decided to finish my jail atm, working on the jail mattress. Had to delete the earlier mattress, create a new one, only now I'm trying to make my mattress look like this: http://www.google.com/imgres?num=10&hl=en&newwindow=1&tbo=d&tbm=isch&tbnid=TIkrHGcnYMRhdM:&imgrefurl=http://www.unitedprison.com/products.php%3Fcatid%3D15%26ItemID%3D43%26page%3D&docid=yHLajfybZruJ3M&imgurl=http://www.unitedprison.com/images/shopcart/thumb_32.jpg&w=805&h=805&ei=HMv6UIAF8b3RAZPrgegG&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=655&vpy=139&dur=1463&hovh=225&hovw=225&tx=86&ty=156&sig=104331682390145153940&page=1&tbnh=154&tbnw=154&start=0&ndsp=25&ved=1t:429,r:4,s:0,i:97&biw=1280&bih=579

 

so I did this to my mattress (selected these faces) shown here:

 

but I forgot how to move these (selected areas are in red) down to make it look like that jail mattress I linked to - help, please?

 

Thanks in advance.

Why do you have an "Edit Patch" modifier on your editable poly?

 

Sorry, but I stopped using Studio Max a few months ago so I can't give you a step by step on how to do this. You will need to consult your books, or read back through some of your threads here in the forum. I have given you a lot of good advice and pointed you to countless tutorials. You should be able to figure this out on your own.
