My pleasure Trevor... Yeah I'll make a window version soon.

Very interesting. I can see the potential in business.

That's kool Seasdes, it does sketchup thumbnails and you can drag in drop into sketchup? Looks like it's free or €10 donationware http://www.irfanview.com/ Good news pbacot... @unknownuser said: Q: Can I use IrfanView on Mac? A: Yes, probably. There is no native-Mac version of IrfanView. However, you can use IrfanView in conjunction with Mac program like WineBottler/DARWINE. Take the ZIP version of IrfanView and unzip it or copy your existing Windows IrfanView folder to Mac. This is easier because the installer may need additional Windows DLLs to run.

How 'bout that top of the list folding proteins number crunch thing? Haven't you been just dying for that? Seems like if it was tied into a render farm somehow, that would be useful. But, I clearly don't know much about that area.

Excellent idea mate!!

Thanks Daniel, but no... I have the old software and all the textures from it converted. I was just hoping for upgraded stuff and more interested in any models they were providing. The jpgs are pretty easy to convert with the material importer.

Antique method!

@Alex Thx for the infos! Indeed 111 megas is not a little file! It's a little town! So it will a cool thing if the file size was shown somewhere before the loading! Like this users with light config will be advertised!

Around here it's called a "boosted tile" and is supposed to mimic an old, mudded tile roof. Roofers charge extra for it, and even Boral has created a concrete tile to look like it too (see here)!

Hmmm....I can see why they are free. [image: RZff_huh.jpg]

Yes Sketchucation already ranks very well, but you can never rank well enough. as for the current links, not to worry the actual link which is the current one, will still work. The SEO url is just set as a new url. to combat duplicate content that can be seen by having the two working urls. a rel=canonical tag should be used to declare one of the urls as the one Serps should use. This would not affect a lot of the great ranks it already has. however, it could increase page views for less searched for terms that may fill the forum from individual forum posts. noob questions etc.

Thanks guys... I'll let you know how it turns out.

SVG has been very useful for me sometimes in the past and talking about SVG and inkscape, the fastest way to export a Layout/Sketchup file to inkscape is by exporting to pdf and importing the pdf in inkscape. Inkscape's format is svg but it can save in many svg versions. The best part is that it can mix vector and raster formats, expanding on the presentation possibilities of both sketchup and Layout. This way you can turn any of your presentations in rich 2d content using a lot of features in inkscape and be able to present that content in multiple supports, including rich web content.

Ok I understand, but if you open the file, rather than stick it in your component library and bring it in as a component, it is an open component.

Rather a very old topic, but I just signed in and it is not still free, maybe it is free for premium members.

This reminds me of Michelle Morelan's work: http://schematiclife.blogspot.com/ She uses hand sketches with pencil and marker, and sometimes a Sketchup model as an underlay. 23 min tutorial: http://vimeo.com/groups/2Danimation/videos/13479536
