over here in the Midwest of the USA there are no Spanish da-blumes or such buried, but there is treasure... I can't find a photo right now... but this guy over here, takes some lawn mower wheels, and some PVC and makes a large magnet, which he pulls with a small 3 wheeler... he pulls it around farm fields, and when it finds something large it clamps down on the ground. he's found multi million dollar meteors with it all over the Midwest...

Yeah, happy birthday, Ron!

The Google Blog has an announcement. There are 54 videos (so far!) on YouTube for the book. http://sketchupdate.blogspot.com/ http://www.youtube.com/profile_videos?user=aidanchopra&p=r zʇ1oɟ ɯıظ sketchy blog

That's true Jon. I wonder why it is that they've never really jumped in fully to the 3D market. Considering the current possibilities with CS3 and 3d painting, it would be so exciting to have a shared connection with programs like Cinema & Photoshop. Beyond that there is the Maxon link into ArchiCad where you can freeform model in cinema or... eh hem.. Maxon and send it back non-descructively to ArchiCad. Just some interesting alliances there.

Brilliant! "If you don't know where you're going, you'll never get there"

susan, thanks for the tip. i probably did not think of it because the idea was to get a very basic, intuitive app that i could learn to use in minutes. layout demands some time to get its basic functions. like stu, the previews had scared me off. i'll have a closer look at it. cheers.

Real name, realy good helpful people. Fairly new to SU but progessing well thanks to these forums and all of you great guys and gals who share your knowledge to the benifit of us 'noobs'. I consider you all to be my personal friends, which is great for me as I live alone pretty much like a hermit. Thank you for having me aboard.

Hi Mike, Glad you are going to read it. It has made a great difference to my quality of life, and given me the confidence to do things that I never though possible. In other threads in this forum people have mentioned for example that it was later on in life that they built up their confidence, and that they were held back because of it. I would put my hand up to that. I was 48 before I bought this book. I had bought other 'self improvement' type books before this one, but Calm at work did it for me. Dealing with a massive work load prior to retirement became a breeze, doing stuff like standing in front of large group of people giving a talk was something I would run a mile from. I actually put something on that required me to do this. I'm not saying I was good, but I was inwardly calm, enjoyed it, and the event went down very well, and I had a smile on my face because I knew that I have cracked it. And the story goes on and on. I was chatting to our hairdresser the other day and mentioned the book to her. She said that she would love to read it, so I gave here my dog eared copy. I wonder someties if the best time to read a book like this is when you feel you really need it. I did and it worked and so is the story from other friends. I'm happy to gab on this subject either on this open forum or via pm. Cheers Alan PS When I returned to work after reading the book, I put at the bottom of the report that I had to complete at the end of each day. 'Aiming to deliver a quality of service second to none' It was my clear statement of my goal at work. Clear as a whistle. Bring it on. It took me to a completely different level and one that I am always aiming to aspire to.
