Northborough, MA, September 9, 2002 - ei software, Inc. is proud to announce the launch of the Lowes.com Paint Visualizer. This tool allows visitors to Lowes.com to view the Valspar American Tradition paint color palette on a wide range of interior photographs.

ei software, a leading developer of paint-color and building-product visualization software, has implemented an online solution that is not limited by the number of paint palette colors or the number of photographs viewed. This technology frees paint manufacturers from otherwise having to limit their online presentations due to lack of server space or the inability to image each image in each palette color.

The Valspar American Traditions palette used in the Lowes.com Paint Visualizer has over 650 colors. The Visualizer has twenty-four images; each with two or three layers. The total number of possible color combinations reaches into the billions. ei software's technology allows the Visualizer to operate with minimum server space and bandwidth requirements, while allowing every possible picture and color combination.

Links to the Visualizer can be found and Lowes.com on the Home page, on the main Paint page and on the New@Lowes page. Banner links ask visitors, "What colors would look best in your bedroom?"
