    This is utterly magnificent.

    The 3D illusion makes it look like the town is on the side of a mountain or cliff face that slowly goes down to ultimately the ocean (that's currently not in play). I love it.

    But this design comes at a high price. It appears all the land is used. If this upcoming update is as big as is hinted, there will be major rearrangements to this town. If the builder loves it - then great. But it's such a masterpiece, it seems a shame to tear it down.

    This brings me to the second point - to create this town, a major redesign had to have been done recently. I know many people have done this. I have no desire though. I prefer to work within my town, doing mini-redesigns.

    But each to his own. At least this major redesign was worth it - even if it is short-lived.

    And imagine how hard whacking snakes will be!

    I love it as well but think it may need wind up being a head ache for the owner of the town once all the new content is released.

    You have got to check out this person's town.
    I think the user ID is sk3ly.
    My kind of creativity. :D
    It looks like something from Super Mario Land.

    Haven't you got this image in bigger resolution? It's really nice but this way I can't see so much of it. :)

    im afraid not - i do everything on my ipad using PStouch and it is far more limiting in terms of the size of images you can stitch together. ive still got all of the screen shots and may redo the job on a proper computer - but then again ill probably never get round to it :)

    That is absolutely amazing. You are a true inspiration sk3ly. I love how the escalator looks like it goes up to that next level. I cannot even begin to fathom how long that took.
