The new guy

Bryan K

Hi there!

Yep, I'm new. I've signed up here and over at the Google forum as well.

SketchUp is by far the most interesting 3D program I've ever seen. I've used Bryce, Blender, 3DMax and some other odds-n-ends apps, and SU seems by far the most versitile and easy.

I do many things. I've worked in many fields. But one thing I've always done is design and invent, but I've only been able to self teach. Couldn't afford school. This looks like just the program I've been waiting for. I don't need high end renders or animation... yet. Just a program to get my ideas off paper and work them out.

I've already downloaded the first 2 pages of tutorials. Just want to say thanks. Those are just what I've been looking for. I've done the Google basic and I am amazed with this program.

Well, that's a lot of gabbing for an obscure corner of a board. I'll post something in a few weeks.

(in the future, please don't mind my grammar. I can't proofread my own writing for the love of money but I always fix it later)

Welcome ecofeco, if that is your real name .

I am sure you have seen these but I would be remiss if I did not point them out:

Look over the third category first (previous SU5 videos) then go to the others.

Cheers and I look forward to seeing some of your work.

Wellcome to the best forum on earth.

Thank you all. I look forward to being around for a while.

No, ecofeco is not my real name. I rarely use my real name on the Internet. Old habit. As I get to know everyone around here, I'll tell my real name.

Thanks for the links. I'm also plowing through the tuts on YouTube. The more I learn, the more my jaw drops. This is one amazing program!

O.K. see you on the main boards. Well, at least the tuts for now.
