Home Plan Pro looks fairly easy to use and i know its only a trial but your not going to be doing it for long are you..

here's a another good software

http://www.smartdraw.com/specials/ab/floorplans.asp?id=42040

there's a free trial for 30 days

Well from these 3 mwe99 looks simple and good, Lj's one is kinda complicated and Joa ones seems trully good and professional...i'll try mwe99s' and joas' ones ...sorry lj

try Macromedia Flash. I know its a different program, but actually it is good for this type of thing. Consider it

Oh, and don't forget good old pencil and paper.

EDIT: I got room arranger, it looked good but its shareware. ¬¬

Ah, but not nessecarily. I think you can actually make renders in Photoshop, better then ones you can make in a program specifically for renders.

Example of what Macromedia Flash can do:



I just kinda copied the top corner of the image you gave us, and it turns out pretty good.

Btw, if you want any help with the design, feel free to PM me and ask.

Ok tasha ty but i think i'm sticking with the others

Don't you have to buy Macromedia Flash to create the flash files though?

I "bought" it

hm yeah i suppose.. i usually create my flash in trial programs. Then use flashcatcher to save them to disk

You're all amateurs I tell you, don't use macromedia flash to do architectural drawings or whatever, you should use some CAD software. ArciCAD and AutoCAD are the best around IMO .

why not just save the webpage, or if you're using Mozilla Firefox, right click on the page, go to view page info, then press the media tab, and in there, you can save the content of the site... ... How you think I got all of my flash animations .
