Being a perfectionist and based on complaints in the other forums, I decided after all to do what I could about the graphics not looking sufficiently "isometric". They should now be more 3D, and fit in the game better.
I've added two new ones (Corn and Potatoes) and completely overhauled some others to make them more 3D, or cos I wasn't happy with them (Tea and Rice). I'm still working on the shadows, but here's what I have so far:
(see below for latest version)
By the way Dark Knight, the main point of these was that I thought the standard ones were too small. I have trouble finding them sometimes, esp. something like Coal. But to each his or her own.

DD,
"Its use had already dwindled down considerably before people found out you could smoke it and it became illegal. (As an aside, I'd still like to see at least industrial hemp legalized though).)
Big problem with a statement like this. Hemp cannot be smoked at all. I am an expert on the subject true hemp especially american hemp contains less than .50-1.0% THC. You need at least 3-4% THC in order to get that feeling that some need or want. Otherwise you are greeted with a god aweful headache. If Industrial Hemp was made legal it would dominate the market place. This is why and only why it is still illegal today. The goverment has no clue how to control it and capitalize on it.
If it were included in Civ3 it would make since it would dominate the market place too. (Ala The Balancer Mod) Because It can be used for food, clothes, paper (that last 2500 years opposed to 250 made from trees) rope, paint products, a substance for contruction that is strong as steel but workable as wood, a totally non-polluting fuel made from the seeds, nutritional product that gives us a nutrient our body craves, I could go on and on here, over 50,000 different uses. To go further, the other side is the medical uses of the other type besides hemp. We won't go there.
My whole point is that it is a bigger thing then everyone knows or realizes because that is how the goverment wants you to think. Before making statements on a subject please do some research. Read Emperor Wears No Clothes by Jack Herer that one book will open your eyes. Everything in book can be found as a fact if you look as he did. Ok babbled enough on subject I think my point is well made. If you have no interest after my post in doing the resource I give up. Kael I think is his handle did the resources already posted on Apolyton. I just would have liked a more detailed picture. Thanks.

DD,
I know all about industrial hemp and the difference between smokeable and non-smokeable, THC content, etc... The fact is, they threw the baby out with the bathwater and made all kinds of hemp illegal, not just smokeable pot. I think that was silly. I also think the claims for hemp tend to be overstated, although it is a great resource with lots of different uses.
But I don't want to argue with you about that. As I said before, give me the right kind of picture quickly, and I'll add it in.
