Can you paste graphics onto flat panels in google sketchup? Or any other suggestions for doing a 3-D mockup with graphics? Simpler the better, and free. |

Sure, just create a new material based on an image, apply it with the paint bucket tool, and then align it. You can even project materials on curved surfaces, too (although that's a bit trickier). |

you can also inport a jpeg and then scale accordingly. I've used sketchup and its a nice feature. You can apply maquee art, monitor screenshots and sideart. Once you apply the jpeg, group it together to lock glue it in place. |

Thanks for that, I've not had cause to use sketchup before, but now I do. If anyone has a sketchup model to get me started please let me know. My starting plan is for my cabinet to be a copy of the Spike. |

Looks like DrChek already made a sketchup of The Spike downloadable here. Woodshop Flunky also made one of the Vigolix and attached it to this thread. Scott |
