Does anyone know of an online landscape design tool that’s free?

I would like to plan out my backyard so I am less likely to mess things up! Does anyone know of an online landscape design tool that’s free? (Not the BHG garden design tool, it lets you design a small garden but I’m looking for something that would let me design my whole backyard.) If I could upload a photo of my own yard to use for the planning that would be a plus!
Thanks!

how to get on hgtv to redesign your home?

ok, my mom and i really want to redo our backyard because it really just needs an overhaul, anyways we’ve heard that you can submit your photos of your house or yards to hgtv and they can pick you and design your home, and some shows do it so you don’t have to pay for it, but i was wondering if anyone knew how to submit your photos because i’ve looked over their website, but i cant find where you would do that, if anyone can give me a link or tell me how that would be absolutely great

Popular guy, creative girl… just read!?

Ok, I’ll give you a “real-life example”…
Once upon a time there happened to be a very handsome, popular guy who got along with everyone (meaning, he was not a jerk. He also was nice to the “unpopluar kids” on the block.). He loved to laugh and joke around with his friends, he wasn’t toooo concerned about dressing perfectly, but he had cool clothes. He was good at every sport he played, and he helped around at home by mowing and helping with the family buisiness. Let’s just say he was an all around cool guy!
BUT! No one knew who he liked.
You see, he was friendly to girls (he was the only boy in his family!) and everything, but he usually hung with his guys. Not that he totally ignored girls, but… well… even his best friend didn’t know who he liked! Of course, that didn’t mean girls didn’t like HIM. They complimented him, gave him their school photos, gave him nicknames….yeah, girls liked him. So here he is.
Well, there also happened to be a girl. She was his older sister’s good friend. Their families were also good friends, so he saw this girl quite a bit. In fact, he’d known her since she first came to his church… 8 years ago! She was a friendly person. She always made his family laugh. Sometimes she’d mess up a joke, or she’d come up with something witty, or she’d simply slip and fall! His sisters laughed, his mom and dad laughed, he laughed. She was also creative. She played guitar at church alot, and wrote some of her own songs even. She liked to try out the latest fashion styles! She wasn’t a prep, but sometimes she’d come up with some new outfit custom designed. Like that pair of jeans she’d bleached herself. She was good at sports (not the best, but good). She was also into film, and loved making movies and putting on plays. Yes, she was different.
But she wasn’t weird. She fit right in. She was content. She carried herself well. She wasn’t a crazy rebel girl. Infact, she was quite shy at times. Not usually too much, but there were times she’d be silent and take it all in. She was different.

Now, I’m sure you’ve used your clever little minds, and guessed that I’M THE GIRL. Yes yes, it’s all true. And you know what? I totally adore this guy. More than anyone else I’ve ever EVER liked. I mean… I… really… adore him.
Anyways, so, his sister told me this once: “Amy, if I ever thought he liked anyone, it would definetly be you.” Whoa… really? Well, I guess I’ve seen the signs. We make fun of each other. I suck at video games, and one day me and him were over at or friends house, and we were all playing a 4 person game, and I kept dying (he kept killing me!) and he was like “you’re like, the funnest person to play with!” (yeah… cuz i rarely WIN!) We play backyard basketball with friends. Once we were in an elevator alone at this really ritzy place. Sometimes, he just ask me “So how was your day today?”
But then, DANGIT! there are times when I want to… ARGHH! Like, this one time, I went to camp where, at the end of camp, there’s this party. ANd so the guys ask the girls to the party, like, as dates you know? Long and short of it… he never asked me. One our friends (a guy) was like “why aren’t you going to ask Amy??” and He was like “Well, she’s like, OLDER than me!” and I dunno, I wish my guy friend wouldn’t have said anything, cuz that whole week was awkward. Except for the second to last day, after the party. Once time, we had a church cookout, and afterwards, in the evening, all me and his friends we just sitting on the sand volleyball court talking. He plopped down between me and his sister. Some little girl had a crush on him an was trying to steal his shoes, so I was hiding them under my legs. Everyone else was talking, and me and him were just laughing about the shoes. Then one of my friends ws like, “Man! You’re sure sitting close to Amy aren’t you!” So then he like, got up real quick and plopped by one of his guy friends! Silly.
Sometimes we ignore eachother (I do it cuz he’s so dang handsome, it hurts to look!) but then sometimes its a laugh fest. He’s totally computer incompetent, so no email, IM or facebook . I actually bought him a phonecard for his phone for his birthday, but I didn’t sign my name, so he does’nt know i gave it to him. Actually, his sister says he suspects I gave it to him. His phone is activated, but he’s not even really the phone type, so yeah. I didn’t really expect him to call, but… maybe a text? Pleeaase! Nope.
I can be patient for him. But sometimes I worry he likes other people. I catch myself thinking, whenever I see him laughing or having a conversation with another girl, “Oh… man, what was I thinking? He probably likes her.” And I’m sad, because this is my last year of school. Next year is college, and I really want to keep in touch.
I tried to stop liking him when I first felt this way, but the next day he was all talking to me and everything and I just felt this great joy like “Yes! He likes me!”. I just want to be his friend for now, but he’s always with his guy friend it seems like, and yeah, he is a bit younger. I know later it won’t matter, but it still kinda does now.

OK! Anyways, sorry this was so long, but… what should I do? I want to build him up and get him to realize I’ll always be his friend, but I don’t was him to feel weirded out. Patience… that’s what I need. But it’s killing me. Oh gosh, he’s so beautiful. Sometimes I feel like I’m not good enough. I think I’m pretty… but I struggle with a little acne, and I see these flawless girls and I’m like “that’s the girl he would like.”

Anyways, sorry it was so long. What do you think of this situation?
-A.
Again, I love to write, and I’m sorry it’s soooo long!
