just when you thought it was safe to come out of the warehouse 

is it modelled in SU? It's very impressive
EDIT - I just checked out your site and see it's a bit more than playing around. That's an inspiring site. I could pick your brains for hours
Here's the result on my Desktop
Dell Dimension 9150
Intel Pentium D 3.40Ghz
2GB RAM
Nvidia GeForce 7900GS


Bit of an improvement over my Laptop but not as impressive as Gaeius' new machine 
Have fun with it
Here's my result on an old laptop that's slowly dying 
Dell Latitude D400
Intel Pentium M 1700Mhz
1GB RAM
Intel 82855 GME Graphics Controller


hi taylan,
welcome aboard and don't forget to post your model 
Hi,
Did you read the instructions on installing on this manual?
http://www.scribd.com/doc/1845643/VRay-for-SketchUp-Manual
Also on the website forum http://forum.asgvis.com/index.php?Itemid=90&topic=3555.0
there' is this statement:
"We now install our render spawner and other stuff to Common Application data folder which is...
c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\ASGvis on XP (note that Application Data is a hidden folder )"
Both very interesting articles and exciting developments. But implementing this new energy source would take time and people want things now these days.
If taken in baby steps, such as new mobiles, laptops, GPS systems etc all been fitted with the technology. Your house fitted with a wireless docking station to charge the current necessities to allow slow transition from wired to wireless. Eventually as you acquire newer TVs, Fridges etc, your wireless station is upgraded to cater for heavier electrical loading.
On a more greener note here something that's just around the corner and will have big impact to both households and environment
Nice, looking forward to finished article.....where's the terrain located?
Hi,
I work for an aircraft maintenance company and the most damage come from the rare breed called 'ground crew baggage handlers'. The amount of damage these guys cause is inbelievable. It is not going to affect flight but make my job a pain!
Few years ago though I saw a plane which flew through a severe hailstorm. I think it was an easyjet and there's pics somewhere on the web
There's one for the 'Duh' Thread.
Thanks BTM
Hi Marc,
I see your problem is with MS Office and not SU7, and i'm not too familiar with Word. But i'm sure someone will know the trick you need to get the right result.
I agree with Gaieus with the GIMP solution. It'd be the easiest option and offer alot more flexibility than Word.
I know that Word allows you to 'bring to front' or 'send to back' an image when you right click. Also when you double click an image more options for layout are displayed but my understanding of that is a little fuzzy.
Is there nothing better for people to do?

hi,
Your welcome to SCF and hope u enjoy learning how to use SU7. As for you request, I'm a little confused as whatvyour attempting.
You can EXPORT your model in many different image formats that Word will accept.
You're adding pictures from Xcel to a Word document containing an exported image from SU7 after editing them in GIMP. Is that correct?
Have you looked on the 3d warehouse for anything that might help so all your work is on one platform.
Try posting an image of what you're doing so members can advise on the best steps to take.
Sorry I wasn't more helpful but you'll find lots of good advice here. You're current method of workflow seems a little muddled without more info or image to better explain.
Great concept, tasty renders and looks like a lovely place to live.
Hi,
That 2mm Aluminium would do the job. As for designing the box, that would be the easy part, it's the fabrication that'll cause the real hear scratching!
But if you go with the "make you own" method, give me a shout if your stuck. Bending metal is part of my working day and I even have formulas for flat patterns.
I think I'm what you call old school 
Hi,
If you need to have a very precise size or would like it to be a precise size. And you're good with your hands. Where I work there lots of sheet metal discarded daily. All you need is shipping costs. Or it's probably cheaper to fly ryanair!
Anyway it's an option if you're really stuck for particular size.
Hi,
Have you purged the model for unused materials? And did you make components and groups? That's where I find the biggest size reduction lies but if the textures you used are high res you might find that they might need some altering on Gimp or Photoshop
why don't you upload the model and members can look to see the problem?
Hi Justry,
That's very impressive modeling. I wouldn't know where to start with such complex shape.
But they do say women are difficult to understand 
I apologise to all female (and male) members for such a lame joke but i couldn't resist
