MyDeco.comThings that need improvement

Certain aspects on the site tend to get overly complicated. You would think that simple things like changing your room dimensions etc. to be easy but they are more complicated. Even designing and making the changes reflect in the 3D mode can be time consuming. It takes up memory and slows your PC down!
