What do you mean by that, I coined the term off GE or General Electric.

Just thought it was Unilever because of the similarity in industry. Didn't mean anything by it.

very nice! good work. you have good ideas for your towers but most of them are just a little bit too plain. the encore at the bay or your stock exchange for example don't have any structure..but your textures a really nice! keep it up!

Im working on it, im thinking of getting rid of the encore and replacing it with somepthing else. It takes a lot of work to do a city, I probably put a good 5 hours into my city every day and I will keep working on increasing detail. You should have seen what I did to the Bond Nast Tower.

I said 5 hours, usually at the most on a weekend and for me it is summer vacation. On a normal school day I could probably do 3 hours and a half hours. Also sometimes I take breaks to get new ideas and rest. When school gets back into swing this fall I probably only book 2 hours a day. The reason I do it so much is because I want that to be my field one day and be good at it.

Yeah that is true, also has anybody seen that minicities thing it is really cool. every time you visit a city it adds population, please visit mine i need pop, the thread for it is in the skybar. Oh and bay city's population is 4.56 million people I thought that would be appropriate for its size.

[SP]Neo · #56 Posted **May 30, 2008, 8:00 PM**

^^ population:3 ^^
btw: look at the tower on the left corner of your last screenshot. the very sleek tower in the foreground. it has an awesome textures but it's shape is too simple. improve it and it'll look really great!
your city has lots of potential with it's dense and nice balanced skyline.

Thanks for visiting my city, you can visit and add one person per day if you visit more than once it wont do anything and are you talking about the triangle shaped tower. I added a real roof today and will probably add a base later. Also can everyone who visits this thread visit the city so it will grow, right now the link is at the bottom of my posts.

drew11 · #58 Posted **May 30, 2008, 9:14 PM**

Here is a sneak peak of a major update I am working on.

[SP]Neo · #59 Posted **Jun 1, 2008, 12:00 AM**

really nice, your city is getting better and better because you add textures!
keep it up (btw:since yesterday your population rised from 3 to 28...)

Thanks, I will post more updates in about an hour. Also my mini city is now up to 30 people, I will be needing industry soon. I have also made a hard decision to get rid of the encorre at bay city, but I will do it later right now there is a big slated for demo sign. Aswell as that I have made many changes to the trinity bay area and I will show those too.
