      This really is a remarkably painful thread Susan..... Good luck,

      Chris

      Lately you've been tan, suspicious for the winter.

          Funny, you guys are so good at reading and understanding very complicated instructions on using software applications.

          If I could ask just one more thing, and please if you don't mind, no more kind suggestions of any other program to use, Iphoto will do for the demonstration: wouldn't the correct path end with iphoto.app as in the visual example from sketchUP way above with gimp which is gimp.app?

          Thanks much. Thanks Chris.

                Susan:

                Preview is built-in to the Mac OS and has basic editing abilities. Check it out and see if it does what you need. I discovered this when I was needing to resize and touch up some images.

                  If I can just add my two bob's worth hopefully answering your question about mac image editors - if you set your Sketchup preferences (Applications - applications for editing image files - /Applications/iPhoto.app), as mentioned; and then set your iPhoto preferences (General - edit photo - full screen) you end up in the iPhoto editor.
                  This is an image editor for photos more than anything else (and not a bad one) but at least it will show the functioning of the in-Sketchup edit texture image process.

                  Cheers

                  Nick
