Hey all,

I've been using good ol' pencil and paper to sketch up possible deck designs, but I would like a better idea of how my ideas and actual wood colours would work. Other than switching to pencil crayons LOL, any ideas for good software to use for deck design ideas? Preferably something that I could import actual photos of wood texture and colour and also get into fairly quickly, I would rather not face a 3D modelling program learning curve :)

Thanks!
