I think they have the wrong Unconference, they want the StretchUp one

@mike lucey said: That's a good idea .... turning eye sores into art This beat me for a competition, the BSA Unbuilt, that I won in 2009 to somewhat less publicity. You can see my unsuccessful 2010 entry here: http://lewiswadsworth.net/lw4/2010/06/19/design/wol/ (It's not modeled in SketchUp.) Thomas Shine overlapped me a year at YSOA. He is possibly one of the few architecture students from the school that who had a worse time there, I suspect, than I did. His final studio project's design (so the story goes) was stolen by a principal of a certain very powerful architecture firm, and used as the basis for the new World Trade Center tower. Shine was courageous enough to sue for copyright violation, despite (this is my memory of student gossip, I want to clarify) the risk that he would find himself blackballed in the profession. The case makes for interesting reading. http://www.nytimes.com/2005/08/28/arts/design/28bern.html The certain-very-powerful firm settled. Although I would have preferred to win the BSA Unbuilt again, I am happy to see that Thomas Shine and his firm are prospering after all that.

Had a go at it, since I was in the mood for duck-drawing [image: KS1x_Duck.png]

@unknownuser said: Maybe the individual authors might take a peek and offer the latest date for their creations?? I tend to check that list often now that I found it. Each author can and should edit their own posts if their plugin title needs updated. I don't run the "complete" update as frequently as the "latest" update, but any changes will get picked up within a couple of weeks at the most.

The topic fits. Mandelbox Zoom It's not SU, but I think SU fans will like it.

I agree with you all in a way or another. My aim here was essentially to share with you the funny fact that people out there have started to create entries in the Guinness World Records that relate to augmented reality and the ARplugin. As the project was really simple, I really had no idea they would make an attempt to it. On the other hand, there are at least three interesting facts emerging from the opinions of you all. It is interesting that people have started using AR on the urban scale to visualize projects in real time not only by means of mobile phones (mobile devices like iPhone are very limited with respect to 3d capabilities) they put effort on a project that has a commercial character this opens out the way to a lot of other similar applications in the fields of architectural visualization, advertising etc. @ Gaeius Yes, but people with suitable devices (AR goggles, tablets, portable computers etc) at a given distance could see it from their perspective. Actually, with this project setting they could not see it from the bottom using a single big marker. A different solution based on multi markers or even other sensors would make this possible. @ Chris Thank you for your valuable comments, but most of all thank you for your offer . I will surely give you a call when the market will be ready for you! @ Aerilius I generally tend to agree with you on this, but GPS alone is not a solution as it will not give you the precision you require to locate the 3D model. On the other hand, GPS together with other kinds of sensors will do a great job. There are different ways to approach a good solution indeed. Also an appropriate multimarker solution would give people the benefit of both advertising and visualization from almost any side and distance.

If you don't mow the lawn, someone could see it in street view... Does multiple sign in mean Google doesn't recognize (& doesn't connect those) which accounts are logged in in the same browser? The Google "world" of services gets so confusing the more services add themselves to your account. I can't wait when they allow to remove services (and delete data) that are think you won't need too soon. The only service for which that is available is gmail.

Where and when?

Good find Jim

Thanks guys for the info. I'm keep looking and see what I find...

Thanks, for uploading the information. I have to figure how to give public access to files on a private blog without compromising the blog.

Hey! We'll lose my vacation spot then!

@thinkbuild said: And to Edson - please check your link - it doesnt seem to work? Very curious what it is supposed to link to. Cheers to all and thanks again the link is fine. the forum is acting funny today.

Well if you scroll all the way to the bottom you'll find the option to switch it back to classic. [image: KlUx_Capture.JPG]

You must use 12 blocks because you see 12 in each view! It's just arranging them at maximum efficiency... If you can do it with fewer than 12 then you are truly gifted

when you cant think of any more things to post on a "You know you've had too much sketchup when. . ." thread on a forum for sketchup had to put that one in

Another S on your Foot. Stumps. . .but that's kinda gross.

Yeah I suppose there is a lot of stuff that isnt too great but people have to learn somewhere. I agree about constructive criticisms and that some people take much offense. I think its great I post on other forums just to get those type of responses. But its true a lot of people seem to post images of barely put together projects. I know im guilty of posting a lot but like somebody mentioned earlier the gallery should be too showcase work that the user wants to show off and is proud of. I wouldn't say its anywhere as bad as the 3D warehouse! that place is a mess but its not all bad at least its getting young people interested in 3D! But the whole car modding thing is a joke!!!! grrr I think its simple really, split the gallery to a work in progress section and then a finished images gallery. And if its possible have a small thumbnail section to show tiny images before you click on the post. But I dont know how difficult that would be, I hope its sorted out however! Hope you can split the gallery good luck with whatever you choose.
