Salland's Adventure World - Planet Coaster 2
Really nice smooth transitions on the off ramps. I like the graffiti too.

Trivia Bowl
LOL! No wonder I'm not tech savvy! I'm gonna completely guess and say "A: Pup" Why? Because I'm wondering if 'pixel' and "unit" makes up part of the unit's name...maybe 'partial' as well? Of course 'Pinky' starts with a 'P' as well, but I think it's too long...

Community Chat Discussion 12: It is cold!
While it's summer here in the SH, it dropped down to 71°F today! Ski parkas, gloves and mufflers will be breaking out at any moment...🥶

The Wonderful World of OZ
Those are quarter 'domes' with patchwork textures. You place one quarter piece, rotate and add another, end up with a round 'hill'. They certainly aren't perfect. Lighting in PC sometimes requires just the right combination of placement of the models used, imported on certain axis, and I didn't always get that placement perfectly spot on, so some quarter pieces have a darker shadowing to the texture on one side, not noticeable until placed up against another one that's been rotated - then the darker texture aligns with a slightly lighter one. After monkeying around and re-making them numerous times without getting the right outcome, I decided to just claim that there were square Oznian clouds passing overhead, casting their shadows on the patchwork fields... I'm sticking with that. I 'think' those were hollyhocks, I forget what the texture was billed as...but very glad you like them...I do too! The patchwork pieces (there's more of them...) and the flowers are all in the Workshop if anyone wants them. TMTK items listed under "Oz" (as are the other nearly 700 items I made for this project. And handful actually turned out pretty good! )

The Wonderful World of OZ
Only highly edu-macated folks use the word edu-macated, so youse in an exclu excloo ekclooz er...special club! Them there flowers I think are 'pee-on-knee's' or 'pie-on-knee's' I think...usually colored red in the game. But these are OZnian 'pee-oh-nays', so theys yeller... See? Highly edu-macated peoples nose stuff like that!

WDW Pics
Whata cutie! (Chase...not you...LOL!) Although you looked like you had as much fun as he did... Missed WDW last year, went to Disneyland instead, but we'll be back in Florida in September! Thanks for sharing such a fun trip!

Love, the realism is superb...

Garden of the Gods - a PC2 park
Well, your terraforming skills are top notch, so looking forward to seeing this hill (Mt Olympus perhaps?)

I'm gonna guess "C"...only because I think I recall reading sometime ago a lower number...but that may be outdated now, but I'll stick with it. "Backrub"??? Well, I guess that makes sense to some rich genius-types... LOL!

The Wonderful World of OZ
Ahhh, thanks JB! The OZ wheel came from the Workshop - The Wheel of Oz by slowly. I first saw it back when we were just starting on this project and knew it just had to make an appearance! Strange, you're like the 4th or 5th person who stated they thought green was the color du jour at the Emerald City...I just don't get it... Chinese sounds good! We had sushi and tempura for lunch...obviously not Chinese but close! There's some Chinese restaurants here, but Japanese is everywhere, and we're just a few blocks from Liberdade neighborhood (Japantown), so we have it often.

The Wonderful World of OZ
As threatened ...er...promised, here's some random night-time screens of The Emerald City. For the full immersive effect add the sounds of snoring and drool on yourself from time-to-time...it will feel like Citytrader is right there in the room with you! And that draws our tour of the Emerald City to a close...thanks to those who stayed awake for it! But wait! There's still more of the Wonderful World of OZ to explore, but luckily it's now Citytrader's turn to lead you through the wonders of Yellow Brick Country - Home of the Scarecrow, Tin Man and Cowardly Lion... More To Come!

Community Chat Discussion 11: Happy New Year
Already retired, have plenty of time to play the games when I want, we travel a couple times a year back to the States - (last year was Seattle and Los Angeles, this year probably Orlando again)...so I guess my goal is just to make to the end of another year! LOL! Seriously, I do have a couple knee replacement surgeries coming up this year, a goal is to get through them quickly and easily while on my way to becoming a cyborg.

Community Chat Discussion 10: Holidays
In the mountains of Brazilian states south of us, they can occasionally get a little snow during winter if polar air comes up from Argentina. Mostly just a light dusting or frost. Here in São Paulo the upper class folks often head to Campos do Jordão, a town up in the mountains outside of the city, were it can dip down into the mid-30's and 40's and they can wear their furs and ski parkas. Inside the city itself people break out the mufflers, gloves and heavy coats when it's in the 50's and 60's. I get strange looks being the gringo who wears shorts and sandals at the same time. Only time I wear long pants is when we fly to the States...

A and B sound kinda silly, C sounds almost too simple, so I was going to guess D: Dabble...but I have a weird hunch it will be the simple C because they were just starting out and hadn't come up with a real name yet...

The Wonderful World of OZ
Well, we're getting near the end of our tour of The Emerald City (thunderous applause and wild cheering breaks out...), but there's still a bit more to share (widespread groaning is heard...), so let's get it over with by climbing the Grand Stairs to the upper levels of the city... (Yes, this is a tweak of the same Art Deco bridge from the Workshop I've used a couple times elsewhere!)... At the top of the stairs the path divides, with one part climbing even higher... We'll take the left branch and stroll through the lush Princess Ozma Gardens... A bronze statue of the Princess herself welcomes you (and reminds you to stay on the path and off the grass!)... Graceful structures serving no known purpose grace the park... Ahead is the entrance to The Marvelous Balloon Ride...some say there's a hidden pun in that name somewhere... And there's the MARVELous Balloons themselves...(hint-hint...)... There's another carousel under this dome...no name, just hidden away for VIPeeps I guess... Now we'll circle back around and head up to the highest part of the city open to park guests. This is above and behind the Odeon Theater... The climb is steep...luckily there's a handy elevator hidden away somewhere...(now if I can only remember where I put it...)... More gardens... Ahead is the entrance to Aerial Adventures Over OZ, a 3D ride that takes you in a Oznian Flying Ship to tour the Land of OZ...well, until the Wicked Witch sends her Flying Monkeys against you! Will you escape in time for the next showing??? The ride theater is accessed by elevator through this unmarked door...spooky ain't it? THIS is where we think we are going...but actually the elevator takes us to a hidden theater (thus why the hidden door I guess!)... Information booth on the long slog down the exit stairs to ground level (if you don't want to take an elevator...personally I've never seen this spot in person...)... The front side of the Emerald City... The back side of the Emerald City... The Emerald City Monorail Station...(a nifty Workshop find! But I had to recolor much of it...)... Numerous bridges lead to the north shore of the Great Oznian River...(a name I just now made up...).... The Emerald Flyer Monorail entering the tunnel leading to the Northern Kingdom... Bunnybury is down below, it's inhabited by civilized bunnies... Along the shore...the view from the Munckinland Tours Boat... The Haunted Forest and Wicked Witches Castle in the far left and Winkie Town on the right... Around the corner from the Monorail Station is the side entrance to the City... Just past the gate are the circus tents of Notta Bit More, the circus clown who was transported to OZ... His tents back up to the Emerald City's walls... That will end our tour for today. Next time we'll just have some random night-time screens, so if you turn off the lights no one will know you've nodded off! Unless you snore...

D...and that's a guess, I never played it but seems like the most logical need...
