Hi Guys,
Has anyone tried the app available for the iPhone or iPod Touch that acts as a keyboard for SketchUp?
http://www.dopplerthepom.com/keypad/dopplerthepom/KeyPad_Home.html
There's only one review one the App Store in my neck of the woods so more feedback would be appreciated if possible? I know its only a gimmick but i'm interested to see how it works, if it works at all?
It's looking very impressive so far, you should do a tutorial on it for novice Render Users.
Which Render program are you using anyway?
Hi,
What a wheel! Get it?
Check out the tutorials on the homepage for some nifty tips on improving your modeling.
Not to say it's bad but that's where I learnt first and i just keep my eye out for peoples different approach to the same workflow.
I'm still a novice though!!!
there's no shadows on the second image?
Other than that it's a creative post that would look even better with some styles applied
Looks good so far, but where's the escape tunnel?
What's the purpose of your project? Is the final render gonna be gritty and grimy with some nice textured tiles etc?
I'm interested to see final render so keep posting

Hi BTM,
I installed this plugin but i've no 'Found' option in the Window Menu?
I downloaded the file 'SCF_Search.rb' to my desktop and then copied it to
'C:\Program Files\Google\Google SketchUp 7\Plugins'
Have i done something wrong?
Hi Jay,
Do you upload your models on 3d Warehouse? Or are the components already designed on the 3d Warehouse by other users?
The reason i ask is because i'd like to see the robot models more closely. I didn't see any links on your site to view the models?
Other than that it's very impressive

Nice render, except for the lady smoking outside the medical centre!
Who does she think she is? She might as well be blowing smoke in the kids faces!
What's the problem with it been a SU 7 file? Do users prefer to save as SU 6 format? I'll provide more pics at some stage, but thanks for looking
Scratch that post and sorry for wasting your time 
thanks Pilou
Hi Guys,
Is there any suggestion from members on which Plugins are a must for all SU Beginners or Internediate users? I spend most evenings ( and working day 
) trawling this brilliant site to gather as much info as possible on any aspect of using SU more productively.
The tutorials are great and I realise for each user there is probably a plugin they couldn't live without.
But if you could spare 2 minutes to think of a plugin for noobs and list a link if you can i'd be forever grateful!
Hi Guys,
I don't submit models here too often as i find it intimidating amongst the modeling prowess that surrounds me 
I've spent the last year designing and constructing every facet of it with SU6/7, and as well as learning the ropes with SU, I've also learnt bricklaying, roofing, electrics, plumbing etc.
It's still a work in progress and hopefully it will be finished by Xmas.
I think i've the only shed in the village with broadband and a killer sound system
Great model, reminds me of a RPG on PS3 that came out last year. Can't think of the name but it was cell shaded in much the same way as your model. I know it had 'Chronicles' in the title but as this aluminium dust has played havok with my brain 
thanks for the advice thom and nick. I'll stick with xp.
Does anyone have experience with so black edition I see floating about on the web?
Is it legit? It's getting positive comments on other forums
Hi,
I've got a Dell Latitude D400 ( it's like an old friend ) but recently it has become more sluggish. It's running XP SP3 with Office 2003 and very little else installed except for SU7.
Now lately I've been considering replacing 60gb HDD with 180gb HDD and changing OS to Ubuntu 8. My concern is compatibility issues with SU7 as i'm not particularly adept at fiddling about with scripting to get things to work.
How do users feel about SU7 operating under Ubuntu? Should i stick with XP and just do a new install?

Hi,
I had look at your plans but i found it hard to understand as it is difficult view it with excel. But i made a very simplistic version so you can play around with it yourself to get the final product that you need.
I'm sure there's is someone beavering away on it at the moment and will upload a better version soon enough. But to help out a little hope you view this and play around with it
rgds,

I've got it but use firefox, but i'll give it a go for a day or 2 to see
you might have opened pandora's box!!!
but best of luck with your endeavour
If u really wanna learn more about clouds and how to identify them you should read 'Cloud Spotters Guide' by Gavin Pretor Pinney (ISBN 978-0-340-89590). It's the most upliftingbook you'll ever read!
After you read it, I recommend you join http://www.cloudappreciationsociety.org, for about €10 you get a cool certificate and of course the honour of now been officially known as a cloudspotter
