SketchUp Community Forum Newsletter

Not to speak about the fact that Hypercosm does not only offer the "commercial" (pay) version of its teleporter but also a free one.

great pic Ross... it's awesome... not so mean

I was just amazed the web cam worked! If I could grab and hold on to any emotion I think the best would be wide-eyed amazement. Wouldn't it would be great to live life in a constant state of amazement? Might be awkward at times (like at funerals) but for the most part it would be pretty good.
Better than being bummed out

Ok. Please don't shoot me down in flames for this, but my first impressions on seeing the newsletter were "wow, what a good idea". Then I started reading it and this soon changed to "Am I just being marketed to here?...". Did anyone else here feel this? It just seems very out of place when the reason a lot of people came here in preference to G Groups was that they wanted to avoid banner ads ??
Hi Rob,
I think the main reason many people came here is because of the easy navigation and style of this forum. I'm 100% sure that if Google SketchUp had offered a similar replacement forum even with some side / banner adds very few would have moved.
I use Gmail as one of my everyday email addresses and the little bit of unobtrusive advertising does not bother me in the slightest, in fact I often find it useful. Its a fantastic free email account and I would have paid for it!
I doubt very much that this forum will survive on casual donations unless Coen decides to stop eating and take up residence in the local park! I am aware that he is presently running things on a shoe string, not easy going at all.
I would have no objection if advertising was to become part of this site in the future allowing it to grow and further develop in the training / education fields of SketchUp and other related CAD programs. Having to 'put up' with a small amount of advertising would be a small price to pay for this.
