Sounds interesting I'll attempt to get my device to charge so I can. Btw was that link your way of saying you want to enter another contest soon

I have to work tomorrow, but I'd be game to do it this evening if you were interested. My big plans for the night involve sitting on my couch and watching Community on Hulu. :lol: ...or, if it goes well and you decide to do it again in the future, I'd definitely be in. It sounds like a fun idea! :mrgreen: Edit: I now see that your OP doesn't actually name any sort of time frame, I made the Friday part up. In that case: ::raises hand!::

I may have had a bit of luck in the recent contests, but I like 'em because it gets people focused on making their towns prettier and promotes a unique discussion in the otherwise suggestion/complaint/speculation department! There's really only a small fraction of members who actually check out those contests (look at the numbers :? ). Unfortunately, there are far fewer people who actually vote in those threads. Even sadder, only a fraction of our members actually make a design and submit it to said contest. The biggest crime of all are those who only frequent game discussion and never bother to participate here! Frankly, we are all guilty of neglecting this Showcase section. :D So I'm calling on all! From the most active members, to the silent masses, to the lurkers who design in the shadows: come on out and play - even if it isn't in this thread! There are pages and pages of previous designs and ideas...step into the light and show off your chops 8)

Community is an awesome program :thumbup: jae_bazz wrote:I see that your OP doesn't actually name any sort of time frame, in that case, ::raises hand!:: Yep, no timetable set yet. Even *when* we get an update, we can still "work" on something. I figured we could kick around some ideas for a few days and then see what happens!

No worries sandwedgeking Ik but I may run another contest end of the month idk yet jae_bazz wrote:I have to work tomorrow, but I'd be game to do it this evening if you were interested.

You boys are neighborinos?...I want in. Sending forth requests. If you're full, you're full. Accept or decline, I won't be offended either way :-o

Does anyone want to design something together...err, but individually...together?

I am so in!

I'm at a stand still really. Trying to move stuff around for when new buildings are released. Put houses in storage, took them back out for FP's, need some inspiration!

Although I don't quite understand it I'll be happy to take part! :D
WHAT? My incoherent first post here and the subsequent ramblings/gifs/pics/videos have confused you? :mrgreen:

To summarize, we are planning to pick a building or concept for design and put something together in our own towns on that same subject. It's just for fun, in the spirit of TSTO comradery!

Suggestions so far include:
Calmwood Mental Hospital
Krustylu Studios
Power plant
Hospital
Restaurant district
Waterfront area
Knowledgeum
Aspirational Buildings
and this gem

I just had an idea we should create a word or message using shrubs fences cobblestone walls etc. We all take a pick a part create it then take a pic and maybe have someone stich them together so they all look like one. For example let's say we had 4 people and we chose TSTO each person would have one letter.

We can continue to kick around additional ideas for a bit, then pick one, and have some fun! Does anything on this list tickle your fancy?

Nascar, anything jump out at you or anything additional we can add to the list?

Yep, you got it! Though with the new update, we shall see if everyone still wants to participate :wink:
No timetable/no pressure - just for fun!

Oh, I like the Knowledgeum suggestion! Mine is just kind of plopped right now. :)

Could also be game for an aspirational- but I don't have the magnifying glass or cubic zirconia yet.

What if we got really crazy, and used dro's message idea, but all included the same building in our letter/letters?? Too much? :mrgreen:

Also, would just like to add the 1-2 new buildings that we all acquired today to the list...

A lovely thought, but maybe a little too optimistic for our first go around! It certainly is possible, so I won't say "no" :D And I do have a trial version of Photoshop for a couple more weeks; if we go that route, I can probably stitch the screenshots together...

Still need to design..
Costington's
Cracker Factory
Duff Brewery
Fat Tonys Compound
Film Set
First Church of Lard Lad
Fort Sensible
Freak Show tent
Knowledgum
Mapple Store
I would say we should probably avoid premium/limited time items because some aren't so fortunate to have the Mapple Store, Fort Sensible, etc.

Btw, your redesign is coming along great, sir!

Right on, man! As dro said, we're still deciding what to work with. Once we have that, I figured we could take a week or so to do the designs and share them all on the same day. Still working out all the details, but it's something different to do with our silly game!

Do any of the suggestions speak to you?
