==Street Naming==
+
==PSD Templates==
It is up to the user as to what to name their streets, but remember that the absolute maximum length is 13 characters (however ST, RD, AVE, etc. are abbreviated as one character). For urban areas, it's highly recommended to use a grid system, which will allow you to use the Short sign variants everywhere (as well as more effectively communicate locations to emergency responders, etc.)

To name the signs, click them and select "Name Upper" or "Name Lower" (or, for the Single variants, just "Name") and enter text into the textbox. For Short variants, the maximum length is 7 characters; for Long variants, the maximum length is 13 characters. Lowercase letters can look strange (particularly lowercase g, j, p, q, and y) so we recommend using all uppercase lettering - although this is up to you.

==Gallery==

Supported characters are A-Z, a-z, 0-9, abbreviation codes (see below), and the following special characters:

===Abbreviations===
+
[[Category:Vehicles]]
All street signs support abbreviations, which are 2 to 4-letter abbreviations that fit in a single character. To use abbreviations, you just put their code into the naming field, like so:
 
Main {ST}
 
Sunset {BLVD}
 
4{TH} {AVE}
 
All abbreviation codes are surrounded by curly brackets - { and } - and the code counts as a single character. Multiple abbreviations can be used in a single name, as well.<br>
 
Below is a list of all abbreviation codes:
 
* {AVE} - Avenue
 
* {AV} - Avenue (shorter version, looks better)
 
* {BLVD} - Boulevard
 
* {CT} - Court
 
* {CIR} - Circle
 
* {DR} - Drive
 
* {HWY} - Highway
 
* {LN} - Lane
 
* {ND} - "nd" suffix for 2nd, 32nd, etc.
 
* {PKWY} - Parkway
 
* {PL} - Place
 
* {RD} - Road (or "rd" suffix for 3rd, 43rd, etc.)
 
* {ST} - Street (or "st" suffix for 1st, 21st, etc.)
 
* {TH} - "th" suffix for 5th, 17th, etc.
 
* {WAY} - Way
 
 
 
==Coloring==
 
All signs can be colored one of the 4 default colors: Dark Green, Light Green, Blue, and Red. Additionally, PSDs are available for adding personalized seals, etc. to your street signs:<br>

The text color can be changed manually by selecting all faces except the two sign faces, then editing the color.
