Hi, I want to share this with you guys. A little tool I made for myself, but I decided that someone could also enjoy this.

A SimCity 4 Launcher


You can select between 9 backgrounds or let it randomly choose one every time.

Hi vitimus

The idea and pictures look good, but your link to the download doesn't work and my anti-virus program came up with a warning message, so can you PM me with a valid link and I will update your post and unlock this topic ... RL means it will be a couple of hours before I can check my PM's
