The more I learn, the more I realize what a noob I am...

SimulatedDork, I use the Easytown one for downtown, rather than a residential area. I don't have any residential lots in my downtown, it's all commercial and entertainment in my game. There is plenty of room left over, even after putting in most of Wolfsim68's commercial lots in it.
I tend to use DinkORama for the main residential area of my neighbourhoods, occasionally using EasyEstates, EasyQuad or maybe DinkBlossom for a little variety. I mainly use 2x3, 3x2 or 3x3 residential lots, which fit nicely in the DinkORama terrain. There's not a great deal of wasted space. Since you have said you use smaller lots, then the Easytown one would have a lot of wasted space in it that you'd have to fill with decorations.
I'm using Easy Quad as my downtown (since I only use downtown for commercial lots...mostly entertainment) and DinkORama as university (love that name!). For my new neighborhood, I actually made a custom one. I'll attach for shares later, once I take a screenshot. IMHO, it only really looks good in lush or desert. It's a large set-up that needs GunMod's camera hack to work, but the streets are set up for smaller lots.

Another noobish question...
Is there any way to separate lots in the lot bin? Maybe by putting them into collections or by rearranging them so that all of one sort is together, all of another is together, etc?
Because between the maxis lots, the downloaded lots, the empty 1x1 and 1x2 and so on lots, my custom residential lots, my custom community lots, my custom businesses... it's really getting rediculous. And I still have ALL the custom comm lots and the businesses to make for my new neighborhood. And they're all jumbled together with no rhyme or reason whatsoever. :(

I've been wishing for this too. I would at least like to separate residential lots from commercial lots. It sucks that you can't tell what type of lot something is without clicking on it.
maxon:
I keep all the lots I want to keep in a store neighbourhood and only pick them up (and put them straight back down again) when I want them. It's a bit long-winded though. The little lots are permanently in the lot bin at the moment. I use those a lot.

Yes, the two dogs who were a couple and Cyd Roseland and his pooch.
One of the dogs was called Sarah, because mEAxis is infatuated with that name. Do you remember Sarah and Don? Or was that Sara? No, it was definatly Sarah.

How many 'hoods do you have? Once I finally clean my game up, I'll only have two. And it's only becaues I'm holding onto the second one for general purposes (to test houses, keep CAS sims, to play out the storyline etc.)

The only additional NPCs were the pet police and the pet trainers - plus the two families in the bin - and then the strays. All will be squashed by the empty P001 template.
What about people townies? Or were the strays the new townies? *notveryimpressedwithmEAxis*
