Jeeze, thanks guys! I'm afraid I posted waaaayyy too fast before I read the most recent posts! I've been struggling with an upgrade to win 8 and will dive into the permissions issue (and reinstalling) to hopefully correct the issue. Thanks for the quick response and great plugins...

Hey Fredo- can't get any of your plugins running on win 8 64 with SU 2013 - here's the error message...
"Cannot load plugin LibFredo6 because the script cannot create DEFPARAM_Dir folder in:
c:/Program Files (x86)/Sketchup/Sketchup 2013/Plugins

Please create it manually, respecting the case

Then this error continues for the rest of my Fredo6 plugins and it ends with this:

Error Loading File LibFredo6.rb
undefined method `average_load_time' for Traductor::Plugin:Class

thoughts?

Same thing is happening to me. I installed Podium to try it - and after install, I don't see any toolbars. The folders are in the plugins directory and everything else seems to work, but no Podium.

I'm excited about this plugin- but I'm having trouble with exporting to images. It gets hung up on random shots. Any ideas? Ahhh... figured it out...if you click off of the sketchup window, to work somewhere else, the update count in the bottom left freezes, but the program keeps outputting to the background.
