Hi, This is my first CJ so go easy on me. DJAPO ISLAND REGION HISTORY: In 1842 when the region of Bladger was colonized The native Djapo (Ja-Poe) indians were kicked out by the colonists, of course they didn't like this so thy fought back and the bloody war of 1843 took place. It lasted about a month but in the end the colonists won and tried to enslave the Djapos. In a desperate attempt to escape slavery the Djapo Indians fled across the Blue River and to an uninhabbited island. Because the settlers came across from france by land they did not have boats to chase them and the Djapos lived peacefully on the island, but everyday they would look over and curse the french settlers for taking there native homeland. Eventually due to lack of resources the Djapos died out. DJAPO ISLAND SETTLERS: The first white men to walk on the shores of the island were recorded to have done so in 1902. The island was left deserted till about 1925 when it was used for hunting. In 1937 it was bought by a private mining company who thought that they could find mineral deposits. It turned out that there were no minerals on the island and the company (James Hertelade INC. ) was forced to sit on the land for 10 years because of the states release clause. On the first day of the first month of 1947. Over all the country lost about 237 thousand dollars on the Djapo Island project. The state used it as a park till 1971 when themade it into a town. A picture from 1973 The Power lines came from a wind farm on the NE corner of the island which in 1975 was turned into a small coast gaurd base Over time the island evolved into a tourist attraction in 1979 a luxury hotel was built Thats All for Now!

you say "go easy on me" but why do that so you don't learn anything??

criticism is to learn and more people need to do that "criticism"

need better layout put some dead end streets\ roads more diagonals make it look complicated

also get downloading some more custom stuff like houses/ buildings schools etc makes your city look awesome

aaand im pretty sure someone will tell you how to do your pictures.

just do those things and it will look great.
