Even Rattier Style

Dave R

Did you put the hand image in using the watermark thing?

Nope, I used the Paintshop pro thing

Here is another idea.

That's cool, too.

OK, I can talk you through making a style easier than I can type it. Maybe we can talk by phone in a little bit. First I have to fix an anesthesia machine.

Thanks for the offer Dave, What I'm going to do is read the tutorial and maybe watch a tutorial if one exists then give it a try, so when i do call you when I it a blank I have some basics of what I am doing thus not sounding like a complete idiot.

I got your number and will use it if I get to that point, thanks for the help.

Here is a fun one, kinda carrying on from another thread where a funny cow was used.

I call it XP style.

That's great! I like it.

It occurred to me that one of the drawbacks to SketchUp's styles as compared to what you've been doing, is that in order to see the background through your model as in your ink on hand images, you have to do an overlay which also lays over the lines sometimes that works but it usually has the effect of reducing the contrast of the lines on the background. That doesn't happen when a hidden line view is exported and the image is laid over the background as you have done.

Anyway, inspired by your chalkboard, here's one I came up with.
