Hi
your is approach is clever and your original image is well suited for such a task.
What exactly is the intention of your work?
I compare the two pictures and I see almost no difference, which at least is an evidence
that you have worked very precisely within Photomatch 
Anyway, well done!
hmm, strange - I can not reproduce or even simulte this behavior...
Box is right, please post this shown tree model here (skp8)
My daydreams are similar - they are characterized by my good frontface side.
However, I am afraid of the nights - since my backface then appears...
What should I do ?!?!?
thanks for your comments!
@ Bob: in this supermarket there are no plastic bags available at all 
@ pbacot: I'm not doing a Gehry design - out of respect
"How is the logo section added to the rest? Point by point?"
I have selected this small area manually and then converted the selection into a group.
With rectangular(?) selection that worked very quickly.
Texturing just this group made it possible that the logo will not appear on the entire bag.
Since this logo area is a group, the group could remain in it´s original position. I have
moved forward this group, only in order to illustrate how I did it...
"And why is that even necessary?
Your question is justified! Somehow it did not succeed to project the texture onto the
triangulated faces - don´t know why. So I tried to use the quad-face method, which worked immediately.
Tig's plugin had only to convert a small piece of geometry, which accelerated the whole thing.
(please see the screenshots below)
As always Dave - A great choice of furniture! And I really like your scetchy style!!
(sometime I have to try that)
Cotty, thanks for that link!
Hi All, here is a little model I want to share.
To create it I've used Julia Christina Eneroths "Fractal Terrain Eroder"-plugin and Tigs
"Quadrilateralizer"-plugin. Only the region where the logo texture is added, is edited by
Tig's "Quadrilateralizer"-plugin, which worked fine! This plugin changed the selected triangulated
faces into quads - so the logo texture could be applied. Thanks to both authors for sharing these
great tools! In the final render the area of the baguette is replaced by a matching photo of a
real baguette within Photoshop.
if you're interested, here is the model:

PS: the baguette in the bag I have borrowed from the 3D Warehouse.
Hi Richard
Also Artlantis Render is able to create "VR objects", if you want to orbit, rotate or zoom an exterior rendered view from your model just like creating "VR panoramas" for any interior view. These files can be "played" by any other viewers later such as browsers or QuickTime Player.
Also the cooperation between Sketchup and Artlantis works perfectly. Artlantis is a standalone renderer which works very quickly. SketchUp does not have to be opened...
... such a high level of detailing, so accurately - really brilliant!! I'm happy to see this work.
hmm - "Maximize" and "full screen" of this particular "open" or "save as" window should be the same.
Perhaps the temporary change of your screen resolution solves this "fixed-sice-bug" and will give you
back access to this window resizing?
If you want to test this, don´t forget to save your SkUp-toolbars previously...
Hi
I´m useing Win7 with Skup 2013 and I know this behavior as well.
This is a Windows behavior I think and appears sometimes also with
other applications...
did you try double-clicking the title bar(?) ?
does this work? (in my case it does)

There is no magic button. You have to light a scene the way you would in real life. Fixtures with IES lights, windows letting in sunlight, maybe you even setup a few rectangular lights behind your camera as additional lighting, the same way a photographer would.

I like the clear and simple way how you have expressed this.
Your three sentences should be the introduction for each lighting chapter of any Render Tool.
However, I would like such a "magic button"
Hi John,
Although this is not a plugin solution, but it might work...
If you make a temporary point reflection (it must be a point reflection necessarily or a rotation by 180°) of your geometry along your align point and resize both mirrored geometries together through their common center point, then this common center point is the same as your align point. This method works along all possible axes.
After scaling, you can delete the mirroring of course or preserve it as hidden geometry for further scalings if necessary.
I hope that's what you're looking for?
Wow!
besides everything else - the precise glass-detailing of the water bottle is impressive - how did you do that?
great work

since there is no sushi supplier here at this time of the day, I ordered a pizza!
Hi All
This is not such a big thing, but I also have often asked myself the question, why do I need to login separately into the Plugin Store, although I am already logged in with the same data in the Forum.
@ Laura: Yes, thankfully the plugin "Make Fur" by Tak2hata is free and I recommend the plugin
"Stretch By Area" from the same author which is free as well...
Dave - a great "walk in the park"!
Thanks Cotty for this Explanation link.
Thanks Tig, again for this very useful tool.
(I did not recognize this great "Image Trimmer" feature so far)
Spectacular work again!
I have no idea how to beat this shown quality or how to
improve this amount of detailing.
please let me know immediately if you ever make a tutorial
about your work process...
Not just a study but a wonderful (real) piece of furniture - I'm impressed.
I particularly like that the table top is made of 2 boards, which are tapered(?) like wings outwards.
And I agree with your statement about the role of SketchUp in dealing with such complex geometry...
Considering the fact that we all have been more or less "angry" about non grouped models, this a great idea !!!
Perhaps SketchUp should actually start automatically with the mode that you have recommended.
The one, who does not want to draw geometry in group mode can deactivate this mode consciously - somehow as sketched below or as a setting in the preferences (of course in a better English)?
Your Layer suggestion is good as well! - Even after many years of SkUp usage I've learned this year at last, that I should better use the default layer 0 
For this reason I even gave me a template for reminding me to work this way...
So it makes sense to lead all these errors in a automatically corrected workflow.
