Making a new, free, portfolio CMS for artists, input?
Hi. A year or so ago I sat down and started making a new portfolio site for myself and accidentally made a CMS.

Make a triangle with selected edges in Maya.
Does anyone know if there is a tool or technique I could use to make a triangle from 2 selected edges. I would normally use the append to polygon tool but selecting edges is really fiddily. I've also tried extruding the edge, collapsing it and snap it to a vert to manually make a triangle but it's not always easy to do it… -
