Yup the Digg effect is at work. It's going to probably hit the top 10 later on.

I made a Prior, we should have a bunch of these chanting poo poo around the Stargate. I haven't got Photoshop on my laptop, so I can't make the background invisible, so you need to remove it unless you want it to look really dumb.

Something's wrong with Ikea. I'm not quite sure what it is. I think it's skewed a bit, but something else is wrong as well. Anyways, I redownloaded your large template, and put it on a layer underneath Ikea just to check the fit inside --> Seems like I got the dimensions right. Weird stuff: There's something going on here, should look like the the one to the right. This is why I thought it was skewed in the first place, something is wrong at least. Also, can it have a large plot instead of four small plots put together? It's like the image on the left now, wtb roadless plot. (It looks a bit stupid like it is now.) Anyways, here's the image again (reuploaded, 2 rogue grey pixels on the last version): http://xs231.xs.to/xs231/08383/ikea533.png

I just wanted to thank everyone who has participated, this project turned out way better than I thought it would and it has been a lot of fun. As submissions are trickling off now I just wanted to let everyone know that I'll keep updating the city and I'll keep hosting up for it. If later on you finish something and you don't want to bump this thread or it is no longer around you can contact me via pm, email or on my website and I'll add your work.

I just got off the phone with mediatemples billing department and they told me I either have to buy a $750 / month server or take the site down How sad. I guess for the last two days it has continuously been running at 15mbs, which is just awesome. So I'll take goon city down for the next couple weeks to let interest die out and then I'll look at putting it back up.

They won't accept a one-off payment to keep them sweet? It's only for a month and then the traffic will be back to normal. You could ask for donations here, I'm sure you'll get enough to cover that sort of money, or someone offering a host.

That sucks! Looks like we need sponsorship, plead on the website for a large donation or something (maybe theres an eccentric millionaire out there)

I'm not going to accept donations so don't send me money. Their might be other hosting options but if anyone is willing gooncity pulled almost 1tb in bandwidth in under 48 hours. WHICH IS AWESOME!

Well I know off http://www.ovh.co.uk/individual/ that provides unlimited bandwidth on a 100 mbps up and down dedicated server with 250 GB harddrive and 1 GB RAM for about 33 USD. Though they also have website hosting deals, but I have no experience with those. I use them, I had 7 terabytes of traffic last month and had no issues with speed nor did the company complain at me. The only thing that could hold you back would be that as far as I know they sell to limited countries(Could be that they opened up) and they are very careful cos they have issues with fraud(e.g they buy the server, recall the payment and keep using it until OVH finds out about it) so you have to go through some procedures. You also have to set up the website software by yourself, you can pick your Operating System. Tell me if this sounds like anything you could use.

Okay, Lefty's from Leisure Suit Larry 1 is pretty much finished. Roof is boring and there's free space in the right corner (for car? mugger?) but otherwise I'm satisfied. If someone has time to add game characters, feel free to do so.

Alright it's up with the new hosting. The tiles are still uploading and will be completely done in about 15 minutes, so if there are missing tiles for the next little bit that is why.
