From dreams using 3D DYOS

To reality using Smartpack


Welcome to Design Your Own Smartpack!

You can choose between using the "applet version" and "application version" of our software. Here are the advantages and disadvantages of each:
Applet:
This is a java applet which means that our program will not have access to resources in your machine such as your hard drive. So it's completely secure. But as a result, you won't be able to save your kitchen designs or email. Help is still available through the link on this page which can be opened in a separatewindow. You can always switch to using the application once you're comfortable with this program. 
Application:
This does have the ability to save files on your hard drive. This means that we will put files on your machine, so you can save your plans and print. A box will pop up asking you if you want to run the application. Of course we won't do anything malicious, but if you feel uncomfortable about this, we suggest you use the applet version instead.

Please note our applet version is undergoing an upgrade and not available at the moment
