Why do you need an image host? Just upload the screen shots using the forum's attachment facility.

@ CommanderZ -- the city will grove like s*** if not

[CommanderZ]

You can slow down city growth in Advanced settings. You can also prevent towns from building roads (thus blocking their growth).

Its because the image is bigger than a certain size. The pictures you are hotlinking are too big for the forum's tables.

[CommanderZ]

The attachments will be show if their resolution is <= 800x600.

[skummel]

ok - I will try to find out how it works
Sorry

Why do Reich Railways own a ring of land around Berlin?

Presumably, that´s for building the "circle line" in later years.

I do a mainline with 2 track each direction -- and the hubs/points are made so that I can convert them to Transrapid/Maglev later without rebuild them

Inner tracks are for passenger trafic and outer tracks are for grain, coal, livestock etc

Please make your images attachments or make them links, as they currently break the tables for many users.

[Lilman424]

They are attachments, BA. The last picture is only 789 by 507, well under the 800x600 limit.

[Badger]

Many of the earlier pics weren't though. They've since been edited.

[Born Acorn]

The first and third posts will still break the tables when combined with the user information sidebar.

[skummel]

Image has been edit -- please tell me if this is the correct way to view and do it

[Born Acorn]

Perfect! Thank you.
