    Examples:

    Amazing for fishing and water lots (future ship battles) would be really nice...

    Looks Like a Great idea. Anything to make the layout differ from the current choices.

    Holy Necropost, Batman!

    Also, judging from personal experience with my town, and the reticence that most have to walking any distance whatsoever, most people would Hate this.

    No need to walk if you have a teleport system, but perhaps we are not ready for such novel ideas.

    If you're simply going to pop, pop, pop from one location to another, why does it matter what the template is? No one will see it anyway.

    Not everyone needs to "pop, pop, pop from one location to another" leave it up to the Avatars if they wish to look around or not. You can be in a hurry and need to teleport home real quick, or you can stroll through town and enjoy the deco. Options are always great!

    How about a new item in the Governors tool bag called the ditch digger which comes in various sizes like the grass and tree removers, but allows one to remove land to create an island by digging out around a piece of land, or a river or canal, possibly a fishing pond. Maybe sell as an addon to the POT kit or just include them with the original POT package as a improvement to them? Next we could explore creating a volcano or mountain of some type to really give us a custom landscape.
    Throw in the ability to place different types of bridges, cobblestone or wooden docks like the ones we have with certain templates.

    It would need a lot of player support to get approved whenever they get back around to adding more templates. The best visuals should always include decent elevations to be built. It's one of the reasons the PaxLair got built first.

    @Sea Bear, they currently do not have the tech to be able to do that, and may never will. The templates are "baked" and not subject to change. This came up quite a while ago when we first started talking about governor tools.

    Now I wonder if it would be possible for PoT owners to buy "premade" (for lack of a better word) that be placed like a lot, with the built-in gardens or ponds, whatever. Perhaps an outdoors system kinda like the dungeon system?
    Just rambling thoughts on my part.
