beautiful Downtown Craig 2.gif I really like it with the snow.


I'll take a quiet life... A handshake of carbon monoxide.

Craig:  Great planning and layout.  Where did you find "Canalside Mills"?  My only suggestion would be to use a few (toned-down) traffic generators.

Hahaha: Amazing transport work, but the squad of identical 1x1s mars the picture and distracts from the highway setup.  My suggestion: Make the whole area around the junctions a city park.

ILHAL: I just wish I could save that on my hard drive without breaking it up.

Pamplona, Florida:

Downtown Pamplona runs along Council Avenue, ending at the seashore.  It overlooks the plush early 20th century villas of Upper San Mateo to the south, and to the north sits Vicki Park, a freshly and rebuilt ghetto, to the north.

We heartily recommend a stay at the four-star Morgan Plaza Hotel, where you can watch the sun rise over the Atlantic Ocean as the smell of salt water mixes with the brisk morning air.

BTW:  I know Florida can't have underground garages.  Suspend your disbelief.

Richmond. It looks way better now. Wide shot because it contrasts majorly with the 'medium density' residential areas surrounding it.

Here's the financial district (crowded blueish part in the center) of Amsterdam. It's one of the oldest parts of the city.

Nice pics everyone!...

Lampala, I'm pretty sure planes do have headlights, for takeoffs and landings. I grew up about 15-20 miles from a large airport, A flight path went over the house and I noticed many planes flying from that direction that turned them off at the same time, right as they got a certain distance from the airport I always assumed. Nice pic, porter!

I'd say that the plane does have headlights, as it's on approach, at night. reason you can see them would be the cloud. Very nice editing allround, though the lack of development around the far edges is a little jarring, i'm sure it'll look even better when that's filled up.
