Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for collaborative design using a digital image. For example, a networked system includes a web server, a database accessible by the web server, and a client computer connected with the web server via the Internet for modifying a design set forth in a digital image and uploading a first modified version of the digital image. The web server hosts a web-based collaborative design application for modifying a room design depicted in a digital image, and published on a web site hosted by the web server. The database stores information published on the web site. The client computer can be used for designing, e.g., a room based on a digital image of a room scene, and uploading the digital images, under control of a first user, to the web server. The collaborative design application is accessible by the first user to post the digital images for storage in the database, and is accessible via the Internet by a second user for posting of a redesign and comment.
