Have not done this forever. How do I upload the file.

No, I am using a prospective full overview camera that I have used thousands of times.

Hello everyone, I am designing a contemporary looking house plan for a client and they want siding like what you see in the picture. It is kind of a commercial look. I think it is hardie siding panels 3' x 6' or so. Do we have anything in chief architect that I can use for this or do I need to get one of you talented gurus to make it for me. I use X3, I know, I know, I need to update, will soon.

Thanks folks for the replys.
