Nice job Oz. First shot after an hour or so?
There was a few boogie lines in there, so I had a play. Its an awesome tool, and I cant believe its free.

The main thing you need to do, is learn how to draw using components. That means for example, if you're drawing a coffee table, you draw up each part as if you were making it, leg, rail, top etc then you just join it all up.

If you want to post a pic, you need to do this.
Export 2D graphic, and it will save it as a JPEG, then you resize it as normal.

But, could you play with it, add to it and then repost the altered file?
(not as a Jpeg)

Yep, thats what I did. Can you see my pic? Its your drawing that I played with.

You have saved it as an .skp file which is a SketchUp file, so only people with SketchUp loaded can look at it. Everyone should be able to see the pic I posted as its a JPEG.

Below is you're original drawing saved as a JPEG.

I know that

But can you edit the original file and repost as a SKP file?

Add some walls or lines or something, then repost

Tee Hee!

**Barry_White** · 5th March 2007, 10:53 PM

Tells me it will only load as a read only file and then I go to load it it tells me I've got an old version and go to sketchup and download the latest version.

Couldn't be bothered at this stage just had a look at Matrix's picture.

**ozwinner** · 6th March 2007, 09:03 AM
