Stand up.

Raise your arms out to your sides (make a cross shape).
That is your X axis.

Point an arm directly up into the air in as straight a line as possible.
That is your Y axis.

Point your arm directly out infront of you in as straight a line as possible.
That is your Z axis.

Sit down and code

Cheers,

Rich

I like to think of it as a hotdog on a stick when rotating

Point the stick up and spin the hotdog, thats Y Rotate, point the hotdog forward and spin, thats 2 Rotating, position the dog in the middle of the stick, hold the stick horizontal and rotate the dog, thats x rotating!
