Thanks, that is a nice collection of color.

Thanks Burkhard and Holger K! You are appreciated.

What I like about this collection is it has lots of browns. Over the years I've spent many frustrating hours trying to mix just the right browns I needed using SU colour mixer. It seems to me browns are the most difficult colours to mix. This collection will make my life easier. I'm a happy camper now.

Regards, Ross

This is great Burkhead, thanks.
I use the RAL colours at work.

Burkhard, WOW! Thanks a bunch! (the green, the blues, and the tans...the tans, not a pink hue in the litter :`)
Best, Tom.

Oh, I like all those browns too.

can I use this for SUp 5??

I unpack it, and go to @Last Software>Sketchup 5>Materials, and just stick that .skm in there? I only see jpg files in there now.

tomsdesk · 15 Nov 2007, 00:47

Joe, my thought at first too...but it goes in the Library folder and then shows up in the materials browser just like all the standard SU5 skm's. Neat, huh? Best, Tom.

Joe Wood · 15 Nov 2007, 00:47

Got it, they show up now.

Thanks for those nice browns Burkhard!

Ah ha. Thanks Tom. I had forgotten this. I found this thread while searching for a way to put RAL, SW and Pantone colors into SU5.

Edit: Tom, I can't get this to work for me. I've done this a hundred times before. I know I'm goofing up somewhere, but don't know where. I'll keep trying. I'm unzipping the files in the Library folder of SU5. Argggg.

Id be hesitant to do a pantone collection: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pantone#Intellectual_property

utiler · 27 Aug 2008, 10:17

Sorry; did I say pantone...?

remus · 27 Aug 2008, 11:38

lol, you never know. If you send them an email you might be ok, especialy if its not for profit.

utiler · 27 Aug 2008, 19:46

no, not for profit...
