This is some serious nonsense, am I right ladies and gentlemen?

Yes, it was down for a little while on Sunday because the database server backing the warehouse filled up. A monitoring system was supposed to alert us before it caused a problem so we could address it proactively, but the alarms were configured to the wrong threshold and didn't fire. That meant we didn't know about the impending problem until it was an actual problem. We've resized and reindexed the database and fixed the alarm threshold, so all is well again. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thank you very much to everyone who responded - you have resolved my issue.

Here's what I was doing wrong:

I would go into finder, click on "Applications," and find "Sketchup 7." Then I would open up that folder, find the Sketchup icon, and right click to review "Show package contents." I would then put my items in the plugins directory. And POOF! Nothing would happen.

As several of you suggested, I should have instead browsed to Users-blahblah-library-application support, ect.

Putting the plugins here fixed the problem! Again, thank you to all who helped me resolve this issue.

I also have put together some YouTube videos on script writing. The first one is similar to the first tutorial in the Link that Honolulu posted. It shows what software I recommend, and what my workflow is. It can be found here:

And then check out all the other videos in the "Writing SketchUp Ruby" series. I think there are 6 total at this point. I add more little by little as I think of something interesting to show in a video.

Hello and welcome!
I couldn˙t help noticing that Roman Aqueduct model, largely due to the fact that the city of Split, that I was born in, still uses one of them, Diokletian´s aqueduct, AFAIK.
Anyway, pardon me for being off topic - looking forward to seeing more of your work
Cheers!
