Given that it's March and I just found out Google isn't accepting models anymore, I suppose that says I lost interest in it long ago. I could see the writing on the wall with the sale to Trimble and the mesh technology were announced. I have less than 100 models so I can only imagine how people with the really big collections feel. I too looked at making a business out of it - in fact that's what I said I always wanted to do. Making models was a rewarding experience that combined technology, geometry, and photography. I spent hours on the simplest buildings trying to perfect them. I loved the challenge and focus of the work. At the end, you were able to publish your work and share it with the world - virtual and real. I am so sorry for all of the dedicated builders and people who made a business out of modeling. It's so ironic that we couldn't keep up with technology. It was a very nice time for those few years. What am I to do with my 50ft tape measure now?
