(...) Looks like you hit that one on the head. I kinda like the space in the center of the bottom two plates on the first two rows (ie the left, bottom corner). You could get a kind of five sided buliding there. (25 years ago, 26-Feb-00, to lugnet.town)

(...) In a word: too many roads, not enough space for buildings. No wonder your buildings don't look good if you have to squeeze them into teh space between roads like that! Try adding a non-road plate between every pair of parallel roads so you (...) (25 years ago, 26-Feb-00, to lugnet.town)

Legoville has a lot of custom made signs, but they don't stick very well because all I use is typing paper and rubber cement. I want to get sticker paper, but where the @$%*! do I get that? (25 years ago, 26-Feb-00, to lugnet.town)

I've toyed around with the idea of making a hybrid city, but it just doesn't stick. I'm a Town fanatic, and I doubt that will ever change. Besides, how do you intergrate Space Port and Space? The two themes are generations apart! (25 years ago, 26-Feb-00, to lugnet.town)

One way to get rid of boxiness and conformity might be to make your buildings a bit bigger, and model them after real-world buildings or pictures of buildings that have some character. These could be town halls, churches, strip malls, or whatever (...) (25 years ago, 26-Feb-00, to lugnet.town)
