      Well,

      I have just come home from having an awesome musical night with another family and really appreciate all the helpful responses to my first post. I will certainly investigate further.

      Thankyou very much.

      Must be my Scottish ancestry.

    • Just to say "HI"

      Hi everyone,

      Just thought i would introduce myself.

      Upholsterer by trade.
      Been in the furniture industry 30 odd years.

      Love design - artistic design - including architecture - textiles sculpture and form.

      Amazingly we can get caught up in our own little world without realising the innovation & technology that is at our fingertips if we are prepared to take the plunge.

      I had only recently come across Sketchup and am amazed at its capability from what i have seen so far. Have tried various other products thinking that they were going to be the
      answer. However, i have spent two years in the wilderness not being able to find a software that would not be too technical for me, provide plenty of options for plugins - add ons.

      Started to view the Help Videos on line and will post from time to time asking some pretty basic questions.

      I would like to start of with one question.

      I took a photo of a furniture model i did some time ago.
      Its in jpeg format.
      Can i upload it into Sketchup and then manipulate both its shape and form in a 3D format?

      Cheers markcoinoz
