    I love the tropical looking pool.

    For months I've been trying to build a swimming pool that actually looks like a natural rock pool, but I keep trashing the lots because they never look right.

    I wish I could easily do that too, I like building but I'm rather bad at it. :s Rarely, I have an interesting idea... Rarely. I really envy talented builders who make beautiful houses like this.
    This looks like a modified version of one of the resorts in Isla Paradiso, if I remember well ?

    @Oilbasedoleander made a lovely natural looking pool pictured in this post HERE but as it's being built for the world, I thought it would be impolite to ask if the lot could be uploaded, so I just look at the pictures and admire it :D

    Amazing! This makes me really miss having a lighting mod that has auroras... so pretty.

    What a beautiful world. If only I had all the required store stuff to play with it... I love all this stuff for fairies.

    You know, I have yet to see an aurora in my game. I've never had one :(
    Such beautiful pictures, and the range of sky colours from people's lighting mods is amazing !

    I don't really have much scenery pics in the form of landscapes, but I'm building a beer garden for a world ( the lot is unfinished still ) but despite EA breaking the lighting with WA, you can still have your buildings looking pretty, especially with their light strings that I've used for the first time.
    Two of my pics are the same, one in daylight and one in evening.

    I use Nilxis' Uranesia lighting mod, but the lights in the building are simply set to the colours "Flame" and "Orange" with a custom intensity.
    Inside the bar I've used a mixture of Cyan and Purple, and in the coffee shop part, alternating colours of flame and white though you can't see those in the pictures.

    You can achieve some awesome looking effects just by changing light colours and intensity.

    You can't change the lighting mod itself unless you edit the colour ramps, which requires a paint program, and some modding knowledge.

    Anyone can change the colours of their indoor and outdoor lights in game by holding Shift+Ctril clicking on your chosen light fixture, and choosing "Set Colour" . From there you can choose from a range of pre set colours, or you can choose to use a custom colour from the custom box.

    I don't like much the greenish light, tho... and the dark water. :( So when I'm gonna play on others worlds I'll change back (I'm now having fun building in Rook Island, and is a more nordic island. (I can't stay without snow!)
    Still undecided on wich mod use.
