  1. My, how we've changed

    I don't think many people are under the impression that the average "old folk" was wasteful in their day. Just the opposite, in my opinion. Just looking at all the stuff my grandparents save before throwing them away (They will reuse dirty paper towels for days1) is enough to see that people were a whole lot less wasteful back then. I don't think people today blame the average "old folk" for any of the environmental problems we are having today. The issue is really our industrial practices that we've been using for the best century or so. It's really not average people that are the problem, but the general industrial and economic system we've been using. For example, growing food in Brazil, then flying it to the UK to be washed and disinfected, then shipping it to India for packaging, then shipping it to the U.S. for consumption is a lot more wasteful then not reusing shopping bags, in my opinion.
  2. Downtown

    Great work! Out of curiosity, are you plopping most of these buildings?
  3. Overview- Districts and Descriptions

    Love the detail! The map provided me a lot of inspiration, too.
  4. Thira - Greek island style bay

    Beautiful flora along the cliffs.
  5. ~ Montpellier ~

    Wonderful! I love the colors in the pictures, as well as the varied landscapes.
  6. Nemea - the cultural capital

    Great use of Parisian buildings.
  7. Update 27 - 7/20/11 - Downtown Martin - West Town

    Beautiful! I love the park along the river.
  8. Bigger & Better

    I haven't visited in a while, but I can see that not much has changed...still quality!
  9. My, how we've changed

    It's good to be back, honestly. Maybe I'll stick around for a while this time.
  10. My, how we've changed

    Simtropolis is a much different site from years' past. I haven't really visited in years (Other than just looking at the homepage), but now that I've spent some time stalking - er, browsing - the forums, I realize that this is a much different community than the one I had last seen, both in terms of layout/design but, more importantly, attitude. It seems less like a place for old, established, "grandfather" members to have fireside chats, and more of a hip romping ground filled with diversity, but perhaps lacking a bit of class. I'm not sure which I like more, but do others see this change?
  11. On the Heli

     Interesting turn of events...I look forward to see what's coming next!
  12. City Overviews

     Outstanding! This is the best work in CXL I've ever seen. I usually find CXL pictures cartoonish. This, however, is very classy, stylistic, and aesthetically pleasing. I especially love the gentle but noticeable photo effects you add on each picture.

    Congratulations to both!
  14. Part IV: Millenium Dome

     Great!

    Anyone know where to find that Salt Lake City region? It's just perfect.
