Yes, that's exactly what I was planning on doing. The problem is just that I will end up with several thousand files, and it would take me weeks to plow through them all. I'm just wondering if there's any way of batch processing them, either through a ruby script or some other method? Maybe something like photoshop's record actions capability?...

Well, yeah... good point.
I'm replacing a page that was done entirely in PHP, and I consciously decided to use javascript to avoid the browser refresh issues that were slowing the page down so much. The link I posted is just a very roughed-out barebones of the page - I just got enough done to where I can start posting my models.
I'm pretty sure that overriding the browser's 'back' and 'forward' navigation can be done in javascript, although I don't know that I would want to. I will be adding a permalink feature that creates a querystring so that someone can go back to a certain point (something like what google maps does when you email a map to someone).
Does what I'm trying to do in Sketchup sound even possible to you?

Need some help with scripting - batch apply materialsposted in Newbie Forum
Hi... I've been reading on here for a while and beginning to try and teach myself a bit of ruby (but it'll be a while before I'm at all proficient!)
I've been using sketchup to model products for my company for about a year or so, am able at this point to do what I need to do on a small scale. Now I'm working on a web page where I want to be able to show all of our products with each of the available trim options. The problem is, I've got about 500 models for all of our dimension options. I need to figure out how to easily apply each of 8 materials to each of these models, go to a saved camera scene, and save them as 2-dimensional jpgs, following specified rules for naming them.
Is there anything like this already out there? If not, does anyone have any recommendations as to where I can start?
The page I'm working on, in case anyone wants to see it, is http://metalloarts.com/rangehood-builder/newrhb - all the model drawings were done in skp and exported as jpgs.
Than
