Blues_Man,
Are you asking folks for sites where you can find pictures of towns, for
viewing? Or are you asking if there is a site where you can download towns full of buildings etc.?
Answer to the first question is..... perhaps you can go to a search engine such as Yahoo or Google then do search on name of town or city in some given country. Perhaps you can find pictures of towns this way.

Answer to the second option. There are probably few sites where can can somehow download already made towns full of buildings for MOHAA. If that is what you meant by your question. Most of us either decompile the stock maps then VERY CAREFULLY TRY TO SELECT SINGLE BUILDINGS AT A TIME AND SAVE THEM TO A PREFAB .... or simply bite the bullet and make them from scratch.
Either way it becomes quite involved to make nice structures and then place them in an intellegient way to form a town.

Have you played any of the stock dm missions such as dm4? It is loaded with nice buildings that form a complete town setting.

cheers

Psycho hey :D

sorry to go off topic but... in your map design front screen view where you can click between interfaces ("The Story","Screenshots","Downloads","E-mail")

you can't read it as when you click another button, (i don't know if it's just the order i clicked them in, but,) the background or previously viewed page doesn't disappear, it fades but not enough :(
hope this helps, prob not cos it's all foreign 2 me :-/
