ABSTRACT:
The present invention concerns a user-friendly software or internet platform that allows potential buyers and sellers visiting the virtual tour website to manipulate the digital images for virtual decorating purposes. The present invention allows the user to take a pre-existing photo image of a building exterior or an interior and ready it for manipulation. The present invention allows a user to conduct in-depth, pre-purchase planning and designing of a home to virtually configure the home to his or her exact desires.
