Hi! 
I don't know if this was already suggested for the Models site, but do think that a embedded OBJ viewer could be implemented?

Something like http://www.solidsmack.com/design/a-free-...-required/

Thanks!

It's a great idea, but I think it might be more effort than what you get out of it...

Pretty much this. I do appreciate you providing a link to a possible solution though! This has come up before but it's usually just "you should make it so we can view the models on the site" and no suggestion on how to do so. That said, models are submitted as zip files so, to make this work, they'd need to be uncompressed on the server side (since you still need the textures and such - it's not just one file that goes into displaying a model) which isn't a resource or space-efficient process unfortunately.

Thanks for the answer... 
I've forgot that all models are compressed on a Zip file... 
I do believe that there is a way to actually have a plugin to read the obj and materials inside a ZIP file (like https://sketchfab.com/) but I'm still researching how to do it.

If I find anything, I'll let you guys know...

I've been visiting the site for some time now so I want to try and be part of the active community now
