Thank you all ....I downloaded some last night, and they are awesome. i am really taking to this program. I generally work in full scale,
so this program is perfect. I am still trying to see how we can use it for signage (monuments, and cabinets).
One of the biggest problems i can see right now, is the inability to open EPS files like customers logo's, special fonts. Is there any plugins for this?

thank you....these look awesome. cant wait to try'em

Mike,

you miss understood me. First off, thank you to all. especially the Ruby authors for your work. I was stating that it would be great to have free plugins at this point, because the company i work for basically thinks this program is useless, and too difficult to learn. I took on the responsibility myself, of learning the
program on my own time, and trying to see if we can use it in this industry. They basically are giving me no support, so i am trying to learn it and put together some nice "skills" to show them . I already used this program in redesigning my home to show my wife. thanks again. i will start to download some of the plugins tonight......thank you all for your input and support

Thanks everyone

...Hello everyone. I am new to this forum, and new to SketchUp. so far I love it.
It is very easy for me to pick up, i am a graphic designer in the sign industry. I am very use to photoshop, and
love all the plug-ins for it. I was happy to see that SU has plug-ins
What are the best FREE plug-ins for SU. I am trying this program out for the company i work for, and they dont want to spend alot
on it. so free would be great, thanks
