I had an earlier version and purchased this to see if more colors are available.

You can use it for more than houses, but bear in mind you are limited to colors and textures in the program.

This one is slightly different than the older version I used before, but it still works well. Better to take a photo of your house and see what the new color will look like than buy the paint (especially at today's prices) and find out it doesn't look good!

I purchased this software to help in the renovation of our new home. So far, I have only used it for the outside landscaping and love it!! I will try and put the pictures on here so you can see how it works. I can't wait to use it on the inside next!! Oh, and VERY user friendly...I didn't even go through the user instructions first and I had no problem learning how to use it. Very easy! I would highly recommend this product to everyone!!

I purchased this to play with different ideas for a master bath that I'll be remodeling soon. Although it had a lot more pictures for kitchens, it was still helpful with tile and vanity ideas. I also used it to try different paint colors in various rooms. If you take and upload your own photos...it's a lot of fun!
