It will contain:

in creative a person can enter flying by double-tapping the space bar, even though, using SMP commands (which i did use since i make everything with MC-edit and edit it a bit ingame) isn't against the rules either.

Is it a third-party mod that includes new block into the game? no, read the rules better before firing me off, besides this doesnt influence the project, but the pictures of the project, and secondly, what is the difference of using the creative flying and SMP flying? well, none.

Yup, I was able to place the center of your main palace in a desert biome.  I have to bury a portion of it cause of max height, but it should still look cool and have an awesome underground portion built in.  I also plan on using the huge fountains somewhere but I'm not sure where yet.  I've got a lot of work to finish on my own stuff to so it might be a couple of weeks before I release it.

Yours, then momentaneously with his resort planet. Can you give me pointers on how build such awesome stuff with so much detail? Cause honestly I think I'm out of the competition unless I can make awesome detail work with such big structures.Like could you look at mine and see how I can add detail or just make it look overall better?

try to use a nice diversity of materials, and try implenting curves with depth, bitches love curves with depth. use some basic materials (i use Sandstone with slabs) or cobblestone with sandstone slabs, make easy combinations of nice materials!
