Google Sketchup
SketchUp is a simple but powerful tool for quickly and easily creating, viewing and modifying your 3D ideas.
If they could make us an online version, now that would be nice.
Have a look at the 3D Warehouse where you can upload stuff youve created yourself.

Yay, Lara Croft in Ireland!
Feshti's back and this time he's counting down the top 10 movie opening scenes of all time.
Is American opinion and culture crowding out all others?

On the one hand:
Does Google really have to try its hand at everything?
But…
I like their stuff. Reader, Picasa, Talk - all really good stuff - and gmail is the business.
When will they slip up? There’s better stuff out there, but not all at a one stop shop.

This is a great program … I downloaded it a few weeks ago and had great fun playing with it. The price tag was nasty though, so delighted to see them finally releasing a free version.
p.s. this is not like regular modelling/rendering programs, it’s designed more specifically for designing buildings etc, you can’t do any fancy renders.
If you want a proper free 3D modelling rengering program I recommend Googling the following to start with:
Blender
GMax
Anim8or
Wings 3D

No, not with SketchUp.

With anything?

Nothing worth showing Tim, I only do 3D as a hobby (once in a while).
These are about the best i’ve online (though still not really worth showing)
