Everytime I creat a primitive, or anything for that matter, the icons for any sort of manipulation are either 19239084029384023 miles from the center or not there. I have to drag for 10 minutes to reach the scale handle, and the rotate icons are non existent. Any help? Any help would be greatly appreciated

hmm, odd. I dont know if i completely understand. Please forgive me if this sounds basic.. Have you tried Modify > Center Pivot
or Modify > Reset Transformations. You can also increase your manipulator size with the + and - keys. I cant think of anything else. Hope one of those help.

Modify center Pivot didn't work, but the + - did. Man, thank you, on top of struggling to learn this program in the short time I need to the manipulator things got crazy and it was slowing my workflow to a crawl and my patience was wearing out. THank you a million times over.

It sounds like you fell asleep with your thumb on the '+' key.
Try getting some sleep.

Whenever I want to play a joke on the new guy, + is what I hit repeatedly. Humourous to see them scramble.

Another funny thing is to replace the opening Maya BMP in the .dll file with another more shocking BMP...so he gets to look at it every time he restarts Maya...funny to see them hide the screen from others' views.

I think I just kept accidentally hitting the + key when trying to hit backspace when splitting polygons hahaha, damned fingers. :D
