Hey guys thaks for the help!! This is what I got at the begining.....
Hello Sketchers, I’m about to kill myself trying to figure out how to do this.
For my work I needed to make sketches over a 2D picture, for that I used the match photo tool, but now I have the problem that my sketch is in a "transparent" way, so I can just see the lines over the picture... is there a tutorial for this that I can download? Or, am I doing something wrong? I tried to do a lot of things but none of them work! Hope somebody can understand this and hopefully help me!
Thanks!!!
Hey Sketchers, this is my first post so I just want to say hello to everyone and also try to solve my problem.
I normally have to work with real pictures on SketchUp and draw on top of them. My question now is if I can scale the picture on the size I need or if there is some other way to do that on SketchUp, normally I do it by eye with the Match Photo tool but, it doesn't work the way it should be for me, I need to have the right measure.
Any idea how to do it???
Great!! Thanks my friend, this info is really improving my sketches!
I appreciate your help 
I hope you guys can Help me, I cant find the way to do it... I need to put some models on real pictures and it is being a very tuff time to find an answer.
Please Help!
Hey, you have no idea the way you are helping me my friend!!! Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!
