Mapple Store: Good example of why I want skins for buildings

Been coveting the Mapple store since I began playing lo these many years ago. Got it. But new "Mapple" stores are white with lots of glass. Would be really nice to fit an updated skin on the store. It looks a little too much like part of the nuclear plant on steroids.

Think how much more variety we could have if we had skins for buildings. The purple houses could be, well, not purple. Or maybe just not SO purple. Lavender? More than one choice would really be nice. Not asking to select my own hex triplet codes (00FF00 e.g.), would just like a bit of variety.

Anybody else want skins for buildings? We know they can do it. Thank xmas lights.


Wow, I did not realize that "NEW" Mapple Stores were any different than the original Mapple Stores. I am trying to visit your town now, neighbor, to check it out :)

But I also agree with the skins for buildings or more skins for buildings I guess. I do like the Church's skins.

    Yeah, I just went and visited her town and realized that. I now assume I read the post wrong, and nicole was talking about the new stores in real life. And how those stores could be applied with skins in the game, I guess.

    Sorry neighbor, yes, I was referring to wanting the Mapple to look like Apple. Standalone Apple stores are heavy on glass and white (the 5th Ave NYC store e.g.). I'd just like to update the Mapple store.

    (and I'm a he. Nicol is a male Scottish/English name. Sometimes spelled Nichol. No worries though. After a lifetime of this I'm used to it. :) )
  • Some buildings could definitely do with a skin changer (Springfield Heights) but others I'm not sure about, you have to try and balance out the size of the game with us having to keep downloading it for major updates and people on restricted data plans.

    Even in the episode of The Simpson's with the Mapple Store it is the same colour as it is in Tapped Out so there should be no way a seperate skin just to change the colour.


    very valid point. haven't seen the episode, but I should have realized....
