From what I have seen Google will do anything "legal" to make money...in this case they are soliciting illegal activity (at arms length) to make more money...another nice "legal" way to make money. Shame on them...many I know are disturbed with this approach.....there will be no loss for google...this is the world we live in. The pimp gets paid everyday.
ps: I guess no one at Google has children.
WOW!! If you really knew, you'd be ashamed of what you've said here.

Excellent work ToDamGood!! Glad SketchUp is helping you do the work you want to do in life! ...now for that "life" part! I hope you get to enjoy your time off!
Here's a great big pat on the back from the SketchUp team.... ATTA BOY!!!
Cheers,
P.S. I know quite a few people on the Photoshop team as well. They'd also be proud to know that they help enable you to do what you love!
Way cool Coen! Clean and mean!
Nice work, I look forward to seeing more!
Cheers,

Really neat. Thanks.
However I cannot help but think the sky would be much lighter with it snowing and all.
Hmmm...how much snow do you get down there Eric?! 
Kidding aside, I've seen many snowy days with grey skies just like those Ivica depicts. I like it!

Mainly, I was surprised that I was surprised there were no surprises....
....Didn't think I could get more impressed with this software!Best, Tom.
Warms my heart Tom! Knowing that people are doing what the WANT to do in life, and that SketchUp helps that become a reality (in more ways than one) really makes us proud and happy!
Thanks for sharing!!

Great work as always Justin!! Really looks like a powerful yet fast moving creature! The running image has me thinking that the hunter has more of an ape/gorilla/baboon stride than a canine/cheetah based stride? What's your inspiration on its movement?
LOL!! That one got me!!
Ok, it's not my FIRST model...but.
P.S. Bryce is a good friend and I've made a bunch of "Bryces" (or is it a bunch of "Bryce" as plural??) that I occasionally post around the office...
You guys are very talented indeed! Here's my first model...
(I don't really have the time to create the models I want, although I have a lot of ideas and a few that are half-complete currently...)
Cheers,
WoW! That's great! I'm always impressed when talented folks use SketchUp in ways never dreamed of!
Cheers!
P.S. Plus the way you illustrate/composite your work over the SketchUp UI is just great! I love it!
Hi Sally, nice work and welcome! Very interesting design! Reminds me a little bit of the tower at the Bahrain Formula 1 race track.
Keep up the good work with SketchUp and please post more pictures of your work.
Cheers,
Pretty cool! So it's got the Buell swingarm, rear wheel and under exhaust plus the two rifle exhausts...that's a lot of exhausts!
Nice looking model!
Very nice Guite! One of my coworkers thought it was a photo, when he looked from one desk away!
Nice work!
A really nice collaboration guys! The original model...wow! I love that kind of home and the details are great! Then the Photoshop work really ended up nice. The intermediate pics were muddy, but you really brought the depth and the detail back, giving it a stylized 3D look! Beautiful!
Nice job recounting the steps too! That's one of the skills that is a necessity in my line of work too!
Great to see this kind of online collaboration! Really cool!
Cheers,
Incredible work! Really outstanding detail and the city/street perspective really gave me the feeling of scale! Can't wait to see it textured!
Cheers,
P.S. I hope Lewis' friend's new discovery doesn't cost you too much re-work time!
Hi Tom, I'm sorry for not responding with any new info...I've been extremely task saturated and honestly didn't do enough follow up.
I will recheck my notes and get some information to you tomorrow.
One question: have you tried unplugging from all online sources and networks (including wireless), then un-licensing and re-licensing SketchUp? This is worth a try.
I'll let you know what else to do after rechecking my notes.
Thanks for your patience,

Hi Phil, I posted this to the two other threads on the closing of the SketchUp forum...who knew there was three!
Hi guys, the final migration is planned for 12 MST (U.S. Mountain Time) today, July 9th, and the old forums will be decommissioned then. I know, sadly this time has come.
I hope you'll stop by the Groups now and again to see the updates we're planning, and I sure do appreciate all of your contributions to the old forum. That's where I first met you all!
In the meantime, there will be a redirect from the old forum link to the new Groups link when the migration is complete, and I'm sure I'll see you all here.
Cheers,
Happy belate birthday from me as well!
I hope looking back on the year makes you proud of who you are, who you've helped and what you've done. I also hope that the coming year brings you happiness, fulfillment, and good health!
Cheers!

Hi guys. We care. We care about our community. We care about SketchUp and we work very hard to make it the best it can be and to make you guys as happy as we can.
For some of you, I believe that SketchUp has helped you to live a dream with your dream job. Creating things that your clients get excited about, and allow you to be creative artists doing something that you'd do for free, but get paid too! This is one of the coolest things about working on SketchUp. We know that we're enabling people to have the best job they can imagine, in part because of a tool called SketchUp.
We're proud of that, and in a way for us, that makes creating SketchUp our dream jobs too. I don't get to create incredible models, but I know that my creative abilities enable you all to do just that. So I live vicariously through your work and enjoy seeing your projects and hearing of your triumphs. I also take great pride in knowing that I can help people who really need it, and can take your feedback and make SketchUp that much better, and allow you to thrive and enjoy healthy careers.
To that end, the migration to groups has been difficult on all. I know how important the sense of community is, and I am very appreciative of Coen's efforts. He has done a great job bridging the gap.
My hope is that we can also improve Google Groups so that it is also a place that you'll want to visit, can post incredible works, get problems solved or solve someone else's, get a gig/share a gig, or just share a sense of the good fortune that I see in all of you who are living a dream with your dream career.
I'll be there, and I'll be here. ...because I'm part of the community and will go anywhere and everywhere that community exists.
I'll see you all online my friends.
Sincerely,
