Default Cities

Any way to make the cities a little more attractive then a colored block? Or does adding a 3d model make the game too graphics-intensive or too much data to load, slowing it down too much?

We need to keep most objects very, as they're loaded quite often. However, the cities could probably be a bit more intensive since they're only loaded every 12 hours or so.

However, we're going to be adding more and more of them. I'm still not too worried about the load they'd put on the server, but I'd begin to worry about the load they'd put on a local user's machine. It's certainly something to consider, though.
