selections in a shopping list palette from the comfort of your home.
-- Design a 3D Room -- Automatically transform your shopping lists into a
3D design that is completely customizable using a powerful wizard. Designs
may also be created from scratch, offering complete flexibility. Drag and
drop paint colors, flooring, countertops and other finishes to find the
perfect mix of product selections and finalize your purchasing decisions.
"We are excited to have MyDesignIn back to our Demo Conference to launch a
groundbreaking shopping and 3D home design portal," says Chris Shipley. "In
keeping with the DEMOfall 08 theme, MyDesignIn offers an open studio, where
consumers can leverage the work of the community to plan their home design and
