      It is possible to set up a donation system. Fredo now has one. Smustard is also an alternative. You can host there and choose to release for free or sell it at a price. I have a few free ones there now, and I plan on putting more there in the future. I feel that they get a lot of eyes from across the internet on their site, not just the users on this board.

      So really there are options to sell our scripts, or be compensated. Maybe in time I'll go that route,

      PS. Anyone who keeps reading these new posts hoping one will be an update on shape bender....

      Shape bender is coming along pretty well. I've got a lot the big bugs worked out. I've got a great User Interface in place now (much thanks to Fredo for a couple of hints on that front). There is really only a couple of things left to work out now - at least for the first round of user testing. But it will still take time. I've got a busy school week ahead of me. It's getting close to time to graduate in 1 month....!

            Thank You very much Chris! Looks very interesting! ๐Ÿ˜Ž

            i'm on Sketchup 6 Extended! ๐Ÿ˜† ๐Ÿ˜

            WOW! All these great Plugins are so much bigger than the tiny update to v7 - google should concentrate on 64bit and high poly support, that seems to be the only part that all these great programmers on this forum can't do...

              Frenchy,

              Don't you think it would be nice to get a little cash on the side for 'doing crosswords'?

                  I tihnk you sort of pick and choose your battles. I have no clue how to implement observers yet. or inferencing for that matter. Thats tricky still.

                      Chris, how much different will be your bend plugin be from the one released by Fredo with his Freescale 2?

                        Fredo's works by selecting your shape and then bending using a protractor like tool. It only does one bend at a time. Mine will take a shape and bend it to match an existing curve, even if it requires multiple bends in the shape. It is sort of like morphing a a straight line into a curved line.

                                      ok, I'vebeen toying with this for a while and I finally have a working version. Barely. Its called shape bender.

                                      [flash=696,601:1i8yntw3]http://www.chrisfullmer.com/chrisfullmer/forums/shape_bender_preview.swf[/flash:1i8yntw3]

                                      It really truly has bugs galore, so I can't post it. It behaved surprisingly well in the video, but only after I found examples that it liked. 3d text for example freaks it out - a lot. Which is too bad because that was what I wanted to use in the last example in the video.
