Claim 30:
31. A method comprising:
providing a garment previewing tool that allows previewing on a touch screen of a garment base customized by a user with a finishing pattern, wherein the garment previewing tool includes
providing an option for the user to select the garment base via the touch screen and upon the user's selection, showing a first garment preview image on the touch screen comprising a garment base image for the selected garment base, and
providing an option for the user to select a finishing pattern via the touch screen, wherein a finishing pattern is associated with a laser input file to be used by a laser to produce that finishing pattern onto a garment, and
after the finishing pattern is selected, showing a second garment preview image on the touch screen comprising the selected finishing pattern in combination with the garment base image, wherein the second garment preview image replaces the first garment preview image;
determining a correction to the selected finishing pattern of the second garment preview image to obtain a corrected finishing pattern, wherein the correction approximates how the selected finishing pattern is to be modified to appear on a three-dimensional surface that will be wearing a garment that is associated with the selected garment base;
using an image projector, projecting the corrected finishing pattern onto the three-dimensional surface;
receiving a first captured image of the corrected finishing pattern as projected onto the three-dimensional surface; and
based on the first captured image, refining the correction.
