I tried your advice but the axis is already set on Y. My problem can be fixed if I rotate the avatar -90 degrees then I have no problem mdelling around using Alt and my mouse button, but if I use the default secen brought in and try those commands, it only allows me to rotate up and down not around the avatar model in Maya. Rotating -90 degrees I was wondering if that was ok to do or if it well mess up my import into SL.

Thanks for your help will try your advice.

I am wondering if someone could help me out, I have brought in the files I downloaded into Maya and when I go to rotate around for modelling purposes in Maya I am not able to. I believe it has to do with the pivot point. I am able to model an rotate just fine when I change the pivot point but I am not sure this is the right thing to do. Should I change the pivot point on my avatar so I can model easier or is there another easier way to rotate around the avatar on that axis that the files already come with? Thanks
