      Not implying anything, but it's kinda funny: You have the same name as the guy who played Silent bob in "Jay and Silent bob strike back" (funny movie. Never saw the ending though...)

      Anyways, some constructive criticism: I've noticed that your buildings have single-faced walls. When it comes to 3D models, solid objects should have ONLY the outside (white) faces showing (except glass. Don't know why).I would suggest making your walls solid, with thickness.
      Ex:
      some ruins from a model I made. notice how the walls are solid, and have a thickness.
      Model can be found here: http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=81&t=14809

                    I'm dying to know exactly what law school you are attending.

                    He's top of his class at the University of Fantasyland - LaLa. Very respected program, but very disapointing that the education is so expensive that the students have to rely on such sub-standard computers. Maybe Larry Page and Sergey Brin will be interested in sponsoring him through school?

                    uhh yeah. read his other posts.
                    heck. anyone know a good car tutorial? i hope to make cars in SU before switching to a $2000 car design program

                      Just won the 'Who is Least Competitive Championships' where trying to win will make you lose. Trying to lose makes you win which makes you lose. Not trying at all makes you lose which makes you win which makes you lose.

                          Actually i have to agree with a few of the guys above.

                          back a few pages you said:

                          I guess having 2k available to spend, maybe a new rig should get first priority... you think?

                            wow 😲 . I do ALL my stuff for FREE. Haven't spent a cent in sketchup (unless you count the cost of internet and buying a computer), and don't plan to anytime soon.

                            By the way, why would you want to spend 2000$ on a program for designing cars if you're a law student? Fun? 😄
                            ...Quite a bit for a leisure toy. I'd buy a PS3, and still have most of the money left over 😄 (maybe buy a flat-screen if I can find a deal somewheres...)

                            's far as cars go...
                            I WOULD make a tutorial, but after the painstakingly boring steps to completing my first car, I pretty much vowed not to make another car*.

                                Well imagine what it would be like if we had 5 or 6 kids, who arent taking their ADHD medication, running around here?

PLZ TAKE OFF UR RATING SHITIKA!!!"

                                  lol. Just had to quote it. My, I feel old when reading something like this.

                                  KDDESIGN, Solo's quite right. You may want to consider spending that $2000 on a new computer, rather than on software. Better yet, save a little more, and buy yourself a really decent piece of hardware. And as for software, if curvy surfaces is your thing, why don't you start out by using Moment of Inspiration? Affordable, and it doesn't have a steep learning curve. Baby steps, young man, baby steps.

                                        yeah, you have a point, but however, i used Disk Defragmenter before i made the car, so it works better, i also deleted old junk i never use, AOL (expired) i use AT&T now.
                                        also i deleted all my junk models (about uhh 20%) like the boxes i experimented with when i first started. lol 😎 again, i still want a mac. i started using it at BestBuy when i had to install F drive cuz C drive had like 2mb left. or just trade in my vista for a better one. (BTM did you have a PC before and know a program to transfer files form PC to Mac?)
