    It could be your internet browser. I can see the pictures so maybe it is a thing against Internet Explorer. (Safari and Firefox works just fine)

    Anyway I like how you did the canals. I could never have enough patience to do that and by hand to. This Cj holds great promise.

    Seawalls quickly, because that small canal system looks stupid, if you leave it like that.

    Looks good so far, can't wait for the next update. Krio, if you do not like something, say so, but do not insult it or the author.

    Way to go gshmails and archangel9! Krio I haven't seen a Cj created at all. Offer constructive critiscm and maybe some people may find this stupid but here you go:

    Click Link Below: Simon Cowell American Idol Judge; Offers CONSTRUCTIVE Critism and occasinaly rude

    Link

    When placing links, try not to place raw ones that stretch the page beyond belief!  Thanks, choco.

    Look at Krio avatar: Does NOT offer Constructive critism and usually rude!

    Interesting approach. I am curious to see what there is to support the canals. Do you have any ideas for how to incorporate the canals as a transportation device?

    I suggest 3 things.

    1. Stick to w2w, will look much more amsterdamish.

    2. Lower the level of the land your building on to just above the water. Or better yet, use Oppies canals.

    3. If you stick to SC4 water use seawalls!

    Regarding the Sewalls and Oppie's Kanals I agree with Yoman. Those Windmills look better in more rural area IMHO.

    Also I would use more kind of bridges - nothing against Jeroni's bridge but so often used it becomes a bit boring, too.

    If I was you I would build a ring of highways and/or railways around the "historic" center. put some newer quarters ?n there and place industry outside the ring.
