I put 3 slots there because you may not want the TV on it so then you can place other items instead. <img src="http://isc.thesimsresource.com/images/misc/blogImages_7311.jpg" />

http://www.thesimsresource.com/artists/Shakeshaft/comments/?blogID=6717 2008-02-29T20:39:08Z Due to the fact that my original composter didn't allow for the use of the accumulated compost to be used on a garden plot because Maxis have linked the Plot to the Composter Guid, I have had to change my guid so it now overwrites the Maxis Composter. To get the Maxis one back just delete my Mesh. I'm sorry for any inconvenience caused... You can find the Updated sets here <a href=http://www.thesimsresource.com/downloads/sims2/sets/objects/663327/ target=_blank>Mesh Set</a> , <a href=http://www.thesimsresource.com/downloads/sims2/sets/objects/671349/ target=_blank>Recolour Set</a> Andrea

The sets also include decorative plants and workbenches etc.Also 2 decorative roofs 3x4 and 4x5, you don't have to use these, you can use Maxis roofs too. <img src="http://isc.thesimsresource.com/images/misc/blogImages_6257.jpg" />

http://www.thesimsresource.com/artists/Shakeshaft/comments/?blogID=5408 2007-10-18T09:12:01Z I have changed the glass panel in the Maxis Hotel Single Door, now it is a flat panel instead of the bevelled glass I originally gave it, so it doesn't look out of place with the Maxis Double Door. I will make the Single Door and Diagonal free for one week from tomorrow 19/10/07 for all of those who downloaded the set for Free. They can be found here <a href=http://www.thesimsresource.com/downloads/sims2/meshes/objects/570917/ target=_blank>Hotel Single Door</a>, and here <a href=http://www.thesimsresource.com/downloads/sims2/meshes/objects/570918/ target=_blank>Hotel Single Diagonal Door</a>.
