"Local" stadiums

KC · 04-13-2007, 11:42 PM

I'm toying around, trying to incorporate a local flavor to the game. Here's a "stadium" from Albany, NY. There's a picture of one of it's signature arched enterances built in 1930. On the lower right, is a satillite picture of the field, with dimensions. Not sure how it will look in a game, but I'm still playing around with the layout.

Let me know what you think.

I'll be sure to correct the spelling of the stadium's name on future revisions.

Nice pic...brings back memories. I played in some college and summer league games at Bleecker Stadium. I also used to go see the Albany-Colonie A's (AA-Eastern League) play there before Heritage Park was ready.

I haven't tried it in the game and I'm not sure how it would look. Nice idea though.

Nice... i think it's a good start. I'd probably turn the satellite image to home plate being on the bottom of the image being a bit larger. Take a look at some of the ones which where done for last years game to give you an idea...

Here's a revision to my idea.

I'm still trying. I'm wondering if this draft is a little too busy. Anyone want to share his or her thoughts?
