As part of the wiki, I'd like to get a set of screenshots that show each building at each level and each VIP house at each level.

If you'd like to contribute, try and follow this guide:

Screenshot Guide
- Make sure the building is clearly centered in your view and isolated from other buildings so you can see the side of it.
- Try to get a view from the front-left corner, so as much of the building is visible as possible.
- Take the screenshot during the day, so the area is well-lit.
- Turn off your menus by opening the console and typing tm. (you can turn it back on again when you're done by bring up the console again, it will be invisible, and running the tm command again).

Posting
- Include the building name from the plaque along with it's level when you post the screenshot.
- Upload full-size to imgur or the like, and one of our wiki editors will download and use them for the wiki!

VIPs will be tougher, but if you know you have higher tier VIP, you can pick up the plot and choose Rebuild Same Model to get it to go back to level 1. For the VIPs, just make up a name for them based on what the props are and I'll help organize the names.
 
Front left above (to get an isometric) or front left eyelevel?
 
Okay, could I get editing permission for the wiki? (same username)
 
Done.

Just an FYI (to everyone), you don't have to paste them direct to the wiki, just linking them from imgur or a similar site to here is also fine. We've got a few volunteers who I'm sure would be happy to handle organizing all of these on the wiki site.
 
Ha @MrJoseCuervo - I think you're on your own there buddy. We're just getting the vanilla buildings documented.
 
Just finished uploading half 3/4 the VIP plots to the wiki. (1-16)

Did you create pages for them or just upload the images? I'll try to get someone to link them up to the main page if you haven't already.
 
Just uploaded so far, will try to get the last 5 tonight.
 
Just finished the last 5. How do you want them put into the wiki?

Edit: Just added links to the Xbox versions of all the addons.
