Freeland City Globe News Updates

The Grand Openings of Two New Freeland's Department Stores, a Freeland Super Saver and another Co-Op Drug Store, has Freelanders rushing in to get the great savings on the products they love!

The construction of the Largest Miniature Golf Course in the SimWorld is making great progress - the first 19 holes are now on the official FMG site and ready to be tested - so grab a club, a wacky colored ball and putt putt away. More details about the project as well as some new props are also available at the site.

Portland is popular this week. The big WW has just added 7 sets of windows from the downtown area of the city as well the Warehouse District - just in time for all of those grungy industrial projects you've been meaning to build.

A sampling of signs from the always sunny city of Portland Oregon, has arrived at the Eye Candy - including one that seems right at home here in Freeland.

After taking a month-long vacation, OTTO has returned to the not so distant future and brought back three virtual landmarks from DB666 and one from Moonicoot. Guest voyagers, berserk666 and mimita, were at the controls this time out.

The first two Freeland Express Fuel Stops are now up as well as Freeland's Plaza Shopping Center containing the first Freeland's Discount Merchandise Store and Freeland Super Saver - two more stores have also been announced and are under construction throughout the city: Freeland Buckland and Freeland Warehouse. Thanks to C&J, Freeland's commercial zones are filled with satisfied shoppers.

The Freeland Forum is now free of ads of all kinds, including the annoying pop-up ads, so if these nuisances were keeping you away before, please stop by and enjoy the friendly conversation in the new clutter-free atmosphere.

Go Old SChool by taking the Llama to our newest destinations on the www: it's time to revisit SimCity 2000 and nine of the sites that are still out there exhibiting the skill and creativity of the many scurkers and city-builders that came before us. One of the sites is the sc2k section within Gothia - while you're there, be sure to take a tour of the masterful Livin 2002 Exposition SAC has created for our current unlimited simworld.

Another Co-Op Drug Store is on site, along with two more Markets from Carlbone and the Beezer Street Co-Op contributed by Co-Op Member, bzrburns. Drop in for some freshness today - the Co-Op is obsessed with it. [that's what we're told anyway]

Vanderaap has set up a table now and has some curious brand new items to offer for members of the Flealand e-Group. A long lost donation of paints by bikerguy - over 230 - has also been added to his already large paint sales table. So are you a Member yet? Joining Flealand not only allows you access to some quality oldies but goodies and many brand new items, but gives you the opportunity to upload your own customs creations yourself and even announce their arrival on the Flealand Message Board for valuable feedback much like the Maxis Exchange and BBS - no middlemen involved. Hope to see you there, but if you have any problems trying to sign-up, please visit the freeland forum or write fredfree for assistance.

The first four Freeland Co-Op Drug Stores have opened their doors to fill all of your prescription needs. Almost all health insurance plans honored. And while you're there, why not sign up to make your own: Join the Co-Op Collaborative Project Today - Aside from the Drug Stores, there are details and props available for creating the original Co-Op Markets and Co-Op Express Convenience Stores - more information at C&J.

Nine holes have been completed so far by several members of the SimWorld Community - check them out in the Freeland Forum. In case you missed it - we are attempting to create the largest mini-golf course in the SimWorld and you are invited to join in and make a hole or three - or 18 - this is a summer-long project so you have plenty of time to work up some wild designs. Go here for a sample package of greens - or make your own - it's an anything goes project.

It's time for the Summer Smackdown at WW with Big Sky vs Big Hair the top draw. Everything from the post office to the courthouse of Missoula, Montana weigh in against the stores and businesses of the Black Horse Pike in South Jersey. Translation: there are now over 120 NEW architectural details, windows, doors, storefronts and signs now available. Included in this update are also a bunch of new details added to the Spokane Series.

The all NEW Flealand e-Group is now open. Bring your own customs to offer to the public, because now you can not only download a ton of fine addons, but also set up your own table and show people what you can do - it's all FREE and ready to go - just sign-up and you're in! To get you going there are over 100 paints and almost as many props to be discovered in the files and photos sections of the site - many from last year's season, but also a bunch of "never seen before rare finds" just waiting to be haggled over - what are you waiting for? Join Today!

Two new programs air today: The Random Stuff Show and The Audrey Taylor Collection. The first one has a few items to spice up your BAP plans including musicians, a halfpipe, pharoah and the marquee that fell off the old Freeland Cinema; the second one is a fine collection of classic art reproductions as presented by the infamous Audrey Taylor - who once performed at the old Freeland Cinema. A Big Thanks to MGMstar for bringing Ms. Taylor to our attention!

The latest project from the Dutch Master is the Munt Tower. As always you can visit his shop and see the history of the project and download the customs that went into recreating it [over 40 details, a clock tower, gates and chimneys]. Also available are additional items from previous works, including awnings and gable pieces.

Couchpotato has come out of her garden and added about 60 classic new and revised details to the eye candy store. Look for more stuff from Mrs C coming very soon.

The latest Grocery Co-Op designed by fredfree has now been built in Southwest Freeland. Along with the Co-Op, the property includes a Freeland Nurseries Store and the first Taco Loco in the Freeland Area. [you can find the multi-tile in the new Members Listing in the Co-Op section of the site]

Starbryte's Domain has been totally transformed into a menagerie of bears and other wild critters in the form of props and other custom addons. Take a llama there today...if you dare.

Today is the Grand Opening of the new business by berserk666 which offers his increasing number of SC3urks of all kinds. From roller coasters to a sewage treamant plan, "devilboy" is developing quite a range with his collection - stop in today and check out the first ten projects.

Have you ever wanted to dabble in SC3urk, but don't think you can go berserk - well take a look at this small tutorial for taking your BAPs and adding some simple shading and contrast - it's located in fred's head - currently atop of fred who lives in the macadam section of Freeland.

The construction of the SimWorld's Largest Miniature Golf Course has begun. The project's sponsors - the Freeland Forum Association - are looking to get as many people involved as possible, and for each to build as little as one hole or as many as...? A basic set of greens paints is available now at the FMG page, along with a customs request booth and other information about the project in a Special Section within the Freeland Forum - join in on the fun now!

A custom fleet of trucks by phantom - along with the newest Freeland Co-Op Grocery Store - also by phantom - are now on site. Also be sure to visit carlbone's latest venture over at SKYLINE: C&J Enterprises.

The newest SimWorld destination to open is called SKYLINE and is a collaboration put together by Gemika and a growing group of talented bappers and custom makers. They have five businesses offering customs and buildings to start with, but have several others opening soon. A Hall of Fame type of building exchange is planned as is community-wide City Project now being discussed in their Forum.
