Hello Sketchup:

I am a user from Taiwan. I have worked with your wonderful program to design for a long time.I also use other program to render my model. Because I am so proficient at this workflow,and someone suggest I can teach others. So I start to teach people how Sketchup can work for them.I run Sketchup on screen in class and lead students to understand and practice by my voice.After class,I provide a live recording of class on my blog and let my student can review online.The Chinese language of vedio I made was the most different from the vedio on Sketchup website.

So,I suspect that If I want produce a teaching material like DVD and book about Sketchup Trainning in Chinese to sell in public. How can I get the authorization from your firm? Could you recomend me? I am looking to hearing from you soon.

Best regards

Maygia

Hi Ken,

That's great information. Thank you :-).

Hi Maygia,

It's great to hear that you're interested in teaching people how to

use SketchUp. "Go-2-school" at http://www.go-2-school.com/ is a

company that has created and sells SketchUp DVDs as well. Check them

out to see how others are creating training materials. They're also a

Google SketchUp Authorized Training Center (ATC). You can learn more

about being an ATC at the following page:

http://www.sketchup.com/learn/training

Please note that you don't have to be an ATC to create and sell

SketchUp training materials.

Should you choose to use the Google or Google SketchUp logo, you do

need to request permission to do so:

Gaieus,

How do you direct someone to a post?

First, how do you remember where significant ones are?

Second, I get emails, but when I looked at the web version I could not

find any serial numbers. Are there any?

Or do you just copy the text to your own filing system?

Thanks for any help,

Ken

Gaieus, thanks.

I've been there before, but I guess I should have been more curious

what the stars were for.

Also thank you Maygia for caring about this and asking.

A lot of people nowadays would not care about copyright things at all

unfortunately.

Hi Gaieus,

That is a great infomation!! Thank you:)

You said I can even use these stuff as my education materials.But, although these are free sharing on internet, is there any problem about copyright when I use in my products?

Thanks!
