A Welcome Message to New SketchUcation Members
-
Hi
My name is Rod and i started using sketchup yesterday, 25.06.2010 after finding it by accident. So far I am just browsing the tutorials and looking at plugins and rubies to add extra dynamics to the software. I have started modelling and found it a little easier than Blender and Truespace to create basic models. I hope to do something a little more daring later when i have mastered the basics fully.Thanks gang.

Hello guys,
My name is Andre, and i'm a tattoo artist from Jakarta, Indonesia.
I just taught myself SketchUp about a month ago and I was really impressed at how simple, easy to learn, and practical this program is.
I have never been too interested in using digital imaging programs such as photoshop, 3d max, and autoCAD, but after trying out SketchUp, I have found a whole new different world to dive in to.
I have just started working in a furniture company, designing furniture, and I have found that SketchUp is so useful in sketching out ideas in 3d.
Do you have a forum especially for furniture/product designing?I'm looking forward from learning from you guys.
Cheers!
Andre

Hi Andre,
Welcome to SCF!
If your click your 'User Control Panel'(look under the site logo) and select the 'User Groups' tabs, you'll see other hidden forums to join! I recommend the Woodworking forum as it packed with info.
Also don't be afraid to post and issue in the newbie forum as members are quick to offer numerous solutions!

Hi Dam and welcome to SCF.
The "Foreign Language" forums are sub subscription based, please, read the info kindly translated by "malaise":

A tous
Après la mise à jour des 16,17 voire 18 Août,(cf le courriel de Coen), les forums en langues étrangères ne seront plus directement accessibles à partir de l'Index Board lors de la connexion (Log). Pour cette raison, nous allons créer des "User Group" spécifiques.
J'ai déjà rajouté tous ceux qui avaient une extension fr dans leur adresse e-mail ainsi que ceux qui ont déjà posté des courriers dans ce sous-forum.
Pour tous les autres qui ont une adresse e-mail différente (de type gmail.com par exemple, ou bien les futurs inscrits ), ou bien ceux qui n'ont jamais posté de courrier dans la section française, il sera nécessaire de se réinscrire dans chacun des sous-forums en utilisant le UCP ou User Control Panel.
I have added you to the French usergroup now however so you should be able to see (and post in) that forum.

Hi Gaieus,
Thank you for the add in the French forum.
Because my English is not very good, It will be more practical for meAll the best

Hi everyone!!!
I joined today and I already had some great help from Gaieus!I design and make furniture for a living and after using a bit of Rhino I'm getting closer and closer to SU.
I found it quicker and easier in general terms but also, I'm discovering, there are very interesting plug ins which come very handy for my projects.
I started using Slicer and (after Gaieus help... ) Shape Bender and, I have to admit, they made me realized that I underestimated SU by a long shot!
I'm looking forward to discover more 3d design plug ins and you never know, one day I mighty be the one give some advice to a beginner!!!

So then I guess you do not mind that I added you to the Woodworkers Usergroup (even if maybe you do not work with wood, there are a lot of nice things there).

Hello everyone,
I am Terry and just joined the forum a few days ago.
Here's my 1st project.
Everything was going along fine, adding a few things to the ship everyday.......then I found this site and read about "Rendering".....
Now I spend way too much time with Kerkythea
Thanks for all the useful on your site.
My photo gallery.....so far.

Hi Terry and welcome!
Well, looking at these images I was thinking "where the hell have you been so far"???
Beautiful work indeed! I once visited HMS Victory and could immediately see how much work must have been put into your model!

Hi everybody,
I registered a few months ago but I didn't introduce myself. I'm interior designer and have my shop in germany. I've been using Corel Draw and Photoshop for my designs for almost 20 years but I was always dreaming about the third dimension. So I was always looking for those expensive programs but that was impossible for me. So 3 years ago I started with second life to make simple 3D scenes but SL wasn't the right thing so I was looking further. This year I installed sketchup 7 and I'm learning everyday. First I bought IDX render but that wasn't the right choice. I've fond Kerkythea and was happy but it was to complicated for me at that time. Then I've found Sketchucation. Sketchucation ist the most usefull teacher for me and I'm very thankful for that. This board inspires me to buy the license of twilight and I'm very happy with it. So my notbook never sleeps and always has something to render. I like this comunity and would like to thank the administrator, moderators and developpers for their help and all the kind members at this board. Keep on going.
Jochen

Hi Jochen and welcome!
(I won1t add anything else here as we have already "met")

Is it really necessary to require new posts be checked by a mod? Sure you keep out spam but now I not only have to wait on people to reply to my topic, but i also have to wait on the admin, who im sure is not online all day everyday.. It would have been nice to have my answer tonight..
-
As within just half a year I had to report 2,300+ spammers at the "Stop Forum Spam" database from this forum only, I would say yes, this is necessary.
Sorry for the inconvenience but we rather have this than hunting the forums for spammers (with more than 250 posts/day as an average since it was founded - and it was not founded with 46,000+ members...)
