We completed the site design contest, and then ran a second contest for a new logo: [image: feQl_new-site.JPG] renderplus.com We're pretty pleased with the results and hope it will cause SketchUp users all over the world to have an improved opinion of us - at least from the first impressions of our web site.

Cool, it's always good that problems like this are brought up. Next time I won't feel too dummy!

Sure Alan

For the Darwin's Year, we just know a little about Life on Earth. We are a limited specie, but the only one, that consider itself beside. In french we say: we are sawing the branch which we are sitting on.... MALAISE

Thanks for explaining that Gaieus, it sounds like job boards and forums don't mix!

Tom, That joke works on so many levels, at first I just burst out laughing, then I got thinking about it... it actually raises some excellent theological, philosophical and moral questions! Now I don't know whether to laugh or to ponder. A bit of both I think.

Sean Have a look at my website: NVizeon contact me at prader@nvizeon.com Regards

Just trying it out Hehe... It works! (Especially handy on forums where you need to type the bbCodes in instead of just clicking on them).

Ok, thanks T & Tt. I understand so far. I have tables very similar to the examples, with the exception of the Authors_Plugins table. I wasn't sure if that was a good design choice or not, nor do I have any idea how to get the information out as a single record.

As Jon requested I have posted this in the gallery forum: http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=81&t=16903#p133985

Aha...

Daniel, You are so right. I would also add that the lunch break should be shared with friends (or friends in the making) and a good laugh should be had by all. Laughing is a fantastic medicine in itself. If anyone cares to take the time to read this well written article they will realise just how important it is to our wellbeing.

@tomot said: I didn't link webdialogs to games. It was Scott's introduction of how webdialogs and Ruby will allow us to play games within SU. Its his example not mine. Yes I first found out about them from his video almost a year ago. It was this that prompted me to look into Sketchup to provide 3d displays for my namesets project. @tomot said: However there seems to be a prevailing attitude today among programmers and large companies in the software industry that they think they can make life easier for users if they can link more and more features into their product ... I agree but there needs to be an alternative to counteract that. My idea is to link the names of physical aspects of the real world in hierarchies; each name is linked to a tiny plain text file of name/value pairs defining its own parameters. So most of the 'features' (more like know-how) are provided by those experienced in various activities. The main point is that in this way IT moves into the province of us all, with practitioners structuring their own Information and Technology providing the mechanisms for its exchange.This might also provide a platform for consensus. @tomot said: ... 1.44 diskettes (remember what they were?) Can't resist fond memories! My first PC was a dual drive Apricot, boasting DOS 1.0 and SuperCalc 1.0 which unusual for that time came on 3.5in 250k stiffies (as opposed to 5.25in floppies) Hope you find something here of interest.

You are right Edson, I should not be in the slightest bit surprised

Hi Guys, Thanks very much for you replies. I'll look into all of these options, especially improving my web page with the necessary features. With the help of modelhead if you do a google search on hand cut dovetails I come in at No 3, and Yahoo at No 1 and the content is still very sparce. Food for thought. thanks again Alan.

thanks, richcat. i did not know about that.
