Just found and read through your entire journal, nice work.
All the pictures seemed to be working, and you could also try to use Imageshack.us for pictures, i dont think they have a bandwith ceiling ^^

Oh, and good luck on your studies ^^

Cheers

    WOW! great, lot's of comments, and no real update. Heh, Well tomorrow I have my Physics test, so no update today. But fo'sho tomorrow! 19.gif

    Now to the comments:

    xiziz: Wow, thanks. Yeah, I use Imageshack now. But I used photobucket cause you could save all your pics there and view them there. But I guess it's not very important so I'll stick to imageshack from now on i think. 1.gif

    Sloppet: Wow, welcome back! And WOW, Page 3!!
    About that picture, I used Photoshop CS 8, probably the best image editor out there. It was really easy really, those colours are just a special brush, but you can do that with other programs too, and just set the layer to colour burn...

    PhatHead: Howdy! heh, well thank you. Yeah, I will try to keep the updates coming. Has been hard this week, and i'm sorry for that but school has been hell. Well keep coming back!

    SC4 meister: hehe, yeah. I will..
    And congrats about your 300'th post!!! wohoo!! 39.gif
    39.gif , and in MY CJ! Great!

    To all: Thank you for your comments, great to hear from you! keep them coming!

    Sloppet: ohh, heh ok. That is just the map, the Grayscale one that you get when you download the map from Simtropolis. I just edited it a bit so that it looked more like a map, than just a region picture.
    -Keep coming back!

    Take care!

    Nice region - I like your traffic layout!!! 44.gif

    btw what's this nice railway station in 10.5 (I guess I'll never have enough nice railway stations at all ... 3.gif) and these walls in 11.2 ??

    @ sloppet: I think these walls are the River Tool Kit RTK 3 from pegasus. Just make a search on the stex with pegasus and you should find this an other nice stuff2.gif

    Sloppet: No problem. Yeah, Nardo69 is right. That is the RTK from Pegasus. Nice stuff... Here is a link:
    RTK from pegasus

    Nardo69: Thanks! Yeah I put a lot of time into my traffic layout. I think that the layout is maby the most important part of your city.

    Oh man, the railstation in pic. 10.5 is from a Japanese BAT'er. You should check out the Japanese BAT thread, really good stuff there. Sorry for not having a link. 15.gif

    The walls in pic. 11.2 are the Decorative Walls That i cannot find anymore on the STEX. I'll try and upload them later, in this Thread.

    -Thank you for your comments! Love it, keep them coming!

    AND I will update later today.. So stay tuned! 47.gif

                                                                                   I'M BACK!

                  Now I thought there was time to update again, so here is update 13 !!!
     
     
     
     
    Well, has been some time since I made any progress on my Maybury map, but I allowed my self to sit down and play a bit today. I always though the area south of Maybury looked a bit strange whithout any houses there, so my main objective today was to start some construction there. I didn't finish it though, but I still think the pictures came out pretty good! So, this update will be about South Maybury city.
     
    Picture 13.1
     
    <ahttp://img202.echo.cx/img202/1425/regionmap8bp.jpg align=baseline>
     
    -The arrow indicates where I have started to build, and the location of the update. nice eh?
     
     
    Picture 13.2
     
     
    <ahttp://img34.echo.cx/img34/550/southmaybury19kr.jpg align=baseline>
     
    -A bit closer picture of the area.
     
     
    Picture 13.3
     
     
    <ahttp://img34.echo.cx/img34/7477/southmaybury24to.jpg align=baseline>
     
    -A close-up of the the northern area in south Maybury city...
     
    Picture 13.4
     
     
    <ahttp://img54.echo.cx/img54/3324/southmaybury30mk.jpg align=baseline>
     
    -More zoning and stuff here...
     
    Picture 13.5
     
     
    <ahttp://img54.echo.cx/img54/2479/southmaybury48oz.jpg align=baseline>
     
    - To your right is Sloppet street wich is one of the biggest streets in Maybury.
     
     
    Picture 13.6
     
     
    <ahttp://img133.echo.cx/img133/507/southmaybury56yz.jpg align=baseline>
     
    -The Sloppet street ends at the Dhoppeii Canal. This Canal is often stuffed with boats and people who enjoy the nice recreation area. The canal also works as a shortcut for smaller boats and ferrys who want to exit or enter the Maybury lake.
     
    -I'd like to personally thank Dhoppeii and Sloppet for being my most frequent posters, and showing their interest in my CJ. Thank you!
     
    Picture 13.7
     
     
    <ahttp://img193.echo.cx/img193/8985/southmaybury66ek.jpg align=baseline>
     
    -This is the Canal street. Nice and quiet area only for recreation purposes.
     
    Picture 13.8
     
     
    <ahttp://img193.echo.cx/img193/8164/southmaybury72tm.jpg align=baseline>
     
    - More pictures of the Canal street
     
    Picture 13.9
     
     
    <ahttp://img139.echo.cx/img139/9536/southmaybury88to.jpg align=baseline>
     
     
    So, that was all for today, hope you enjoyed it as much as i did, and keep coming back!
     
    See you, take care!

    WOW, I have a canal named after me.43.gif  I am honored....thanks Exil3...29.gif

     
    I absolutely love pic 13.2...That whole stretch is going to look fantastic when it is finished....In 13.5, is that a hospital?  It looks like one, but I haven't seen it before...I also see that fencing again along Sloppet Street....Nice touch...
     
    13.6 looks incredible...especially becuase is has a shot of dhoppeii canal in it....Did that bustop in the pic come from the STEX?
     
    Great Update...44.gif

    doggyman: Wow, thanks. Yeah, since those embankments came out I always wanted to make a area like that. Though it wasn'e planned for South Maybury city, but I think it blends pretty good with the enviroment. Thanks for the comment, please return for more updates!

    Dhoppeii: hehe, knew you would like that one. yeah, I hope I can make that thin strech of land look beautiful, and I will do my best to assure it.
    About that hospital in 13.5; you can find it in the Japanese Bat thread (the massive one 48.gif ). I love that hospital, looks great.
    Those busstops are from the STEX. And it is because of you that I have downloaded them. Think it was you atleast who asked me if I got those black ones to work, and since i did not get them to work I downloaded some other busstops..
    Here is the link: Simple bus stop by morifari

    Sorry no updates today, cause there are some partys going on, hehe. But there will be one tomorrow, so stay tuned! 44.gif

    Now, here comes: *tataa*
     
                                                                            UPDATE 14!
     
     
    Well, as I said in the last update, this update will be about the construction and terraforming of south maybury city. I didn't play very long yesterday, but i think it came out pretty good. Please comment or maby help so that South Maybury city will look as beautiful as possible...
     
    NOW, TO THE PICTURES!
        -as usual i will only comment the picture no story...
     
     
     
    Picture 14.1                                                                   -The progress-
     
    96dl.jpg
     
    -Well, on this picture you can see the development of this city. Though there is more to the left on the map that you can't see here on this picture (such as a underwater tunnel), so you'll just have to wait until next update to see that area.
     
    Picture 14.2                                                              -waterside-
     
     
    105ad.jpg
     
    -This picture is of the other side of the Dhoppeii Canal  Tell me what you think...
     
    Picture 14.3                                               -Dhoppeii's canal street-
     
     
    118re.jpg
     
    -another picture of this important city canal. Not much to say really...
     
    Picture 14.4                                                            -waterside 2-
     
     
    124xe.jpg
     
    -This area will serve as a important recreation area for the sims in Maybury. Since drinking is allowed on the street in Maybury (as long as it doesn't become a problem for anyone), this area is a great place to drink some good wine with the one you love. Or it's just a great place to party, heheh 11.gif
     
    Picture 14.5                                                        -The new area-
     
     
    <ahttp://img69.echo.cx/img69/8287/135no.jpg align=baseline>
     
    -I think this could be a great area for $$$C buisnesses, what do you think? Any Ideas?
     
    Picture 14.6                                                    -The central park 1-
     
     
    <ahttp://img202.echo.cx/img202/4448/144lf.jpg align=baseline>
     
    -A park area in central parts of South Maybury city.
     
    Picture 14. 7                                               -The central park 2-
     
    <ahttp://img202.echo.cx/img202/8955/157bi.jpg align=baseline>
     
    -Up close, and another angle of the same area...
     
    Picture 14.8                                                            -The tower-
     
     
    <ahttp://img27.echo.cx/img27/445/169sj.jpg align=baseline>
     
    -I am not sure if I want to have that tower exactly like that, but i thought it looked kinda cool so i thought i should post the picture, what do you think?
     
     
    Well that was all for today! Hope you enjoyed it, and I'll probably have a new update tomorrow, but no promises...
     
    so, take care!

    Wow, thank you guys so much. I have been really busy with exams lateley so I haven't played Maybury in some time. Though I have tried to get Cycledogs Terrain mod to work, but it wont. I checked with jeronij if i was missing some files, but i wasn't. Going to start a thread, so that I can find out what my problems are.

    Take care!

    Hehe, chill out. What I am showing here is the in the same city, but the thing is that this will be developed later. The update later today contains 7 pictures only about the city. This CJ is not only about my cities though, it's also about landscaping and planning, so i don't think this small update was any different then my other ones. (except for the darn good looking landscape 2.gif )

    So return later today and I'll give you your city pictures! 44.gif

    i think this is also because everyone is having so much fun with Cycledogg's new modification. it's a new look, and i believe everyone is enjoying that.
