      Ye, most of the cases it is. We often realign the axes to be able to work easier but by right clicking the any of the axes, you can "reset" them There is a different way of georeferencing in SU: go to your modl info window and set Location there

      Thank you both for the replies. My thinking was to getting into maybe somekind of interior design firm or something that does renderings often. i know learning will be a long proccess but what better learning is there than on the job. I learned more about Autocad through work than I ever did in school. In my line of work i deal with water and sewer stuff (i.e. Lift stations, well site, booster pump stations and so on) i guess I can take an existing project of ours and do it in SU and present it to the boss and maybe he will fit it into the budget for future projects. I never thought of it that way, this whole time I was taking SU and modeling house when I could actually model something that I use on a daily basis. Hmm....see thats why I love forums, so many inputs that you see things you missed in the beginning. I got the perfect project for this too. will post my progress Thank you, any and all advice is appreciated.

      When you push/pull a face you make a solid, when you go "inside" the solid you should see the faces are blue. White is the colour of the "outside" of the solid, blue is the "inside" of the solid. Within SU it does not matter, you can put a texture on the inside face with no problems. When you use a program external to SU is when the inside/outside faces issue becomes a problem. What's the point of rendering the "inside" right? You will end up with strange results and holes in the model where there should not be any. Have a look at the following model, they look identical right? Now go "View -> Face style -> Monochrome" The left block will render fine, the right will not because it's "inside out". inside-out-tut.skp

      I am farily new to 3d modeling, dabbled with it in school. My main platform is Autocad, in which my 3D exerience has been with. I kinda have a grasp on the modeling but still alot of learning to do. I am currently modeling a house that I just decided to trace after not finding a cad file. I will post in gallery as it becomes recognizable, too see what everyone thinks.
