I was revulsion to when I tried Blender a couple of months ago; I was
horrified that the direction they went in interface revamp was to choose
inspiration from 3Ds Max. Lots of icon tab deck and drilling down through
menus...Max has one of the worst interfaces that I can think of shudder.

GUI is not that bad, just a few hints helps going through like setting
input preferences to maya mode so you go back to select using lmb rather
than rmb. GUI is very smart and you can very easlily split and merge views
which makes layout customization very fast. The major issue remains a
I don't think Blenders GUI is the big problem either.
The big problem would seem to be the somewhat rigid thinking behind it,

From what I saw Blender's one of biggest problem is UI and inconsistency
through out tools.
One thing do something in one tool, and completely different in another
tool and window.. making HUGE hit on workflow and learning curve.
That is for me it feels like a bunch of good ideas duck-taped
It's strange, I heard that also but I've not really found that to be the
