If you want higher quality than this, you're probably going to have to pay for it, in which case, you can try Turbosquid or FormFonts.

My name's Jon and I have over 800 Kerkythea files and over 1000 sketchup files.
Also, I never name groups or components and I never use layers, styles, or scenes.

...I'm speechless.

Wow, awesome work!

I'm not sure how hard this would be to do, but it would be great if models upon import into sketchup would preserve their UV information, so a texture can be applied properly with one click.

Here are some pics to explain better:

The model gets properly UV mapped in another program, then exported:

The texture is painted according to the position of the polygons on the map:

When the texture is imported into Sketchup, it preserves it's UV coordinates allowing for proper painting of the texture:

As oppose to Sketchup automatically resetting the UV information to be cubic:

Of course, because cubic textures are so important in Sketchup (for walls, buildings, ect) it would be great if this could be an option to be turned off or on before applying.
Like I said, I have no idea how hard this would be to do, so I might be way over my head with this wish.

I've always enjoyed those shops. Especially when you start seeing exotic cars like a Lamborghini.

Are you trying to say something about PC's with that blue screen of death, Frederik?

Thanks guys. You're welcome.

Very useful. Thanks a lot!

Thanks, Remus.
Here's one more...

I did this as a test, so it's perfectly seamless.
Here it is for anyone who wants a rusty metal rope.

Try using an unbiased render method.
I suggest Metropolis Light Transport for interior and product renders.

No.
Plan ahead.

But the merge function might help you...
You can export a second chair model with proper materials from SU and merge it into KT (File > Merge). You can do the same with lights, cameras, whatever you like.
Try making a search for more info.

Thanks for the link, Remus.
It's true so few people were hurt. My sister is staying with a friend right now whose door got blown open from the shockwave.

That's weird...

Sound good.
I guess I'll get things started...
Here's the IKEA Markor side table and the IKEA Arstid table lamp with some IKEA Vaken glasses and IKEA Sirga coasters.
But if you get tired of all this Ikea stuff, there's always a magazine to read.

It just happened this morning. (I guess I slept through the whole thing )

A series of massive explosions at a propane distribution plant in the Wilson Ave. and Keele St. area early today led to the shutdown of a chunk of the city’s northwest corner and the evacuation of thousands of residents, many of them elderly.

Firefighters reported that there were only a handful of people with minor injuries and one unaccounted for.

The neighbourhood “got off very lucky,” said Division Commander Bob O’Hallarn. “The situation has improved. It’s going in the right direction. It’s still a risk but not as much of a risk as it was before.”

Officials said it was possible residents would be allowed to return to their homes later today.

60 downloads and 3 thank-you's.
Thanks a lot.

Thanks.
Kwisten, that looks great!
(If only Sketchup's animation was a bit smoother )

Awesome job, Kwisten.
Here's my take on the clips (since everyone else is doing it ).
