It blurred the original picture a bit, but it is still helpful to see the effect of different colors. It would also be very helpful for it's intended purpose - to see the effect of different colors on your home's interior or exterior. Nice that you can use your own photo to play with (not just a stock template photo like the free version on the website). How can you go wrong for $10.00 (the price of about 2 1/2 gallons of gas) seems like a bargain to me, to have the ability to preview a color before going to the expense and work of painting (or upholstering). I'll have to pick up a copy - I see it's available in CD or download form. I still wonder though if there is something out there/ available to show/ mock up pictures or scans of fabrics with patterns or buttoning, etc. woodwright Thanks Rare for the reply and the sample color mock up.
