I am trying to submit a proposal for a local business and they wanted to know how much it cost to do one of these virtual room (design your own room) via online.

Here's the perfect example I am looking for:

Virtual Design Center (http://www.mohawk-flooring.com/planning-decorating/dreamvision.asp)

If you can do this or know of anyone that can, please let me know.

Thanks.

I could do it, and this would be how:

Learn some ActionScript 3. Get the cookbook if you can.(bitmap & textures)

Have a picture of every texture somewhere on server(hardwood, tiles, etc...)

Set up a movie with all the different layers like they did(you can see their layers).

Make the basic form for each layer(floor, cabinets, etc..) and when a user clicks to retexture, actionscript the form to be textured by the "texture pics" you have on server.

When the movie starts, texture it however you like initially.

Research "loading a bitmap into an image".


Good luck~

WORD! I didn't try the "use your own image" to see if Web's idea works but that's definitely the way I'd do it to the images supplied by the site.
