	City Architecture Graphics Needed Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

I find myself in need of a set of city architecture graphics, for those out there with more artistic skill than mine (I've seen some great work out there in the Civ 2 world). What I need is a Present-Day African city set, something like the look of Modern Nairobi or Kampala, actually. It would be best with a side/frontal perspective, like most city graphics, not an aerial view, such as in Crises New World Order, 2156 Days of War, or Island Thunder, for example. The side/frontal format would just match the other five architectures best (whose authors will get credit in the Readme for the scenario). Could someone please design or find this set for me, because, as I've freely admitted myself, I have no visual artistic talent.

Gimme a couple hours. Which tile slot are you using? (to optimize flagpole position)

Flag position is determined by one of the two pairs of dots on the border. The special colours are very badly mischosen.

IMHO, it is best to switch to the units.gif palette, edit the last turquoise colour on the palette list to something distinct, and then change all the turquoise special value dots to that colour. The last task is pretty easy with PSP's Colour Replacer tool.

I'm not sure which tile slots there are.

So that's what the heck those little dots are....

oh yeah, what do the other 5 city styles look like? It'd be good to have some consistency.

Here's my cities.bmp (with the generic modern cities still included).

Actually, my mistake. I'd originally put the aerial view tropical modern city from Island Thunder, which is still there, though I want a modern one that matches the others. As well, my final version has the Moslem architecture from Microprose's World of Jules Verne instead of the generic Stone/Bronze Age architecture. That's how it currently stands.
