I have never tried to copy an Animal Crossing save file, Luigison, but it doesn't surprise me that it can't be done. If it could be, then we would have the ability to copy our towns and send them to other people. That would make it possible to duplicate rare items and could negate the purpose of trading with other people (either with passwords or by visiting their towns).
Heh, I filled out that survey twice. The first time was when I had just discovered it. But I filled it out again to tell Nintendo that I find it annoying to be told that animal-crossing.com has passwords for NES games (Clu Clu Land D, Donkey Kong 3, etc.) when there are no such passwords to be found.
I agree with (most of) your ideas for an improved Animal Crossing, Luigison. In addition to those, I think it'd be neat to have either a porch or just the ability to drop furniture outside. Lawn furniture is fun to have inside a house in its own weird way, but it'd be great to put it outside where it belongs.
Some of these things may become a reality, for Animal Crossing 2 has been officially announced by Nintendo Power. It will probably be awhile until that game is complete and available in the U.S., which I think is a good thing.
jjf8420, is the snow set the same as the Snowman set? Of the sets you listed, the space theme is my favorite.

If Animal Crossing has a place in your heart,
Then remember this on your way to Nook’s mart:
To Cahquene should your passwords go,
So there may Errol find what your generosity does bestow.
