hey everyone. I am new to this forum so please be gentle.
i just built my first maker-bot and it is working great printing all my 3d models.

i have installed google sketchup, free version, v8
i installed the plugin, and everything is fine so far. i have the image trimmer menu item under the tools dropdown.

so i want to create a 3d model of a 2d image.
i import a greyscale .png file with transparencies, then i run the IMAGE TRIMMER plugin.
when i do this, i get the notifications on the bottom saying 'making edges files'
the dots scroll as it processes ...............

then that's it, the process finishes and nothing happens.
i am running on a win7 machine 64bit.

does anyone have any ideas that can point me in the right direction?

thanks again
bill
