That's very impressive, excellent job.

wow! i'm so flattered... i go away for a few days and suddenly all this feedback! thanks everyone! and special thanks to garva for the selection! ... to answer a few questions...

1) regarding people wanting to see a few more screenies... below are a couple of them... i'll try to find some time to clean up some more of them...

for your viewing pleasure screenies of the first 2 buildings:
Community Center -> -3168 3204 Dantooine Sunrunner
Wedding Chapel -> -3127 3250 Dantooine Sunrunner

2) these buildings are part of an attempt to build an entire city that is fully interior decorated... read the details if you like in the roleplayers forum...

3) the couches comment... yes i'm trying to get ap to master architect... at which point the white couches will replace the orange...

3) there seems to be interest in knowing how to do the chandeliers... i adapted a principle i read online...

get a small chair.. like the chair version of the orange couches i have there...

to make each ring (and it obviously has to be adapted to do it right but this is the premise)... use this macro (all my objects were called "wedding chandelier" so /target wedding; targeted the closest item labeled "wedding"... and the final result reads as one object)

a) drop the chair in the center location of the chandelier and drop all similar items for one ring (ie. bestine candles)
b) initial cycle
(note1: rotatefurniture by zero should be omitted I include it to make the idea easier to read)
(note2: macro must account for half the circle to work then repeat it for the other side)
/target chair;
/rotatefurniture left 0;
/sit;
/target wedding;
/movefurniture forward 60;
/rotatefurniture right 0;
/movefurniture up 300;
/stand;
c) second cycle
/target chair;
/rotatefurniture left 45;
/sit;
/target wedding;
/movefurniture forward 60;
/rotatefurniture right 45;
/movefurniture up 300;
/stand;
c) third cycle
/target chair;
/rotatefurniture left 45;
/sit;
/target wedding;
/movefurniture forward 60;
/rotatefurniture right 90;
/movefurniture up 300;
/stand;
d) fourth cycle
/target chair;
/rotatefurniture left 45;
/sit;
/target wedding;
/movefurniture forward 60;
/rotatefurniture left 135;
/movefurniture up 300;
/stand;
e) close it off
/target chair;
/rotatefurniture left 45;
/sit;

*** repeat b -> e for the other half of the chandelier, then drop another group of items... and adjust the macro distances slightly and repeat... requires a little math... ***

My version used a lot of variance of this... and optimized the code where possible... but that should explain the principle well enough... this could also be adapted for any other exact circle measurements... for example faction data terminals in an outwardly facing ring...
