      Hi Dan,

      Have a look at the input / Output > Import > 2D Graphic import section of the SU Guide.
      There it says about importing images as textures.

      Gai...

        Thank you Gaieus,
        It always helps to revisit the manual. Another question I have is, Can you create a fill in SU or do you need to use another program and then import it into SU? I am working on an architectural rendering and want to design and try a number of different siding designs quickly to see what they will look.

          What "fill" do you exactly mean?

            Gaieus,

            I guess I mean a repeating pattern that will fill a plane like the side of a house. Like a lap siding that has texture(3D visual depth) to it.

            Thank you,

            Dan

                    Hi all,

                    I am Botond from Hungary, I just joined the communitiy. 😍

                    Thanks for shareing links to the video tutorials, I think the best way for me to learn is to watch them first. I am going to have questions after that for sure... 👊

                        @iPangko: you should see the attachments when you are logged in. Do you have this problem when logged in as well?

                          G'day from Australia.. this is my first post so I thought i'd introduce myself. Great site you guys have here, hope we can all learn from one another.

                          If you get a chance rate my small collection of sketchup models (see signature).. i love architecture and spend most of my time modelling my small city of Adelaide, South Australia.

                          Cheers

                                        hi there.

                                        i've been using sketchup for a few years but this is the first time posting on this site. I just discovered it a few months ago and have been voraciously reading all the posts and installing scripts! i work in video games, film and television and absolutley love sketchup. just wanted to introduce myself and let the members of this board know how much i've learned in such a short time!

                                            thanks! i'm mostly a photoshop painter, but as time has progressed, i've found that doing sketchup, then a render, and then post processing/painting in photoshop gives me great results. I'd really like to get more into the photoreal rendering. I'm using vray at the moment, but am always exploring...i just downloaded kerkythea(sp?). the stuff on my site is kinda old...so when some of the stuff i've worked on comes out, i'll update! It is more sketchup-render-paint stuff. I'm really inspired by the stuff you've done solo, and others here as well...so i'm excited to start exchanging some info!

                                            thanks again!
