I will keep all of this information in mind while building. :) Fair Warning - Juhhmi the Slumlord Homes: I was just going to surprise everyone, but the shock might do you all in...so in order to prevent any heart attacks here's a little warning about an upcoming group of houses I'm putting together. First a little background... I entered a FABULOUS building challenge on the forums by the lovely Gamelia. In her particular challenge we had to build a home specified by another player. It was great fun, but MY challenge involved the building of a slum home. Yup. Slum home. The nastiest, dirtiest slum home you could make too. LOL! Well, since you can't have just one slum home, I am currently creating another couple of houses to go with it for a grand total of 3. These WILL have some CC. Sorry folks, but Maxis just can't make the items I need to build these homes. However, if...for some UNHOLY reason...you are interested in them, Cyclonesue makes some fabulous grimy bits and pieces that would decorate these homes in proper disgusting style. Here's a little picture of exactly how bad it's going to be. ;) Well, you can't say you weren't warned! LOL! Not to worry, I'll have some pretty contemporary homes started right after these are uploaded. Promise! --Illiana

Just so we're clear you two...I had absolutely NO problems building these homes. $\;\)$ I just wanted to give the downloaders the full scoop on why I suddenly built something so different. LOL! I love how these homes turned out, and it was so much fun building out of my usual comfort zone. I thank you BOTH! Gamelia for the wonderful challenge, and Juhmmi for being imaginative enough not to make his sims live in a "perfect" little sim world, and for being bold enough (and honest enough) to ask for what he wanted and NOT for something he thought someone else would "rather" build.

Thanks for accepting my challenge! I'm still going to download them, by the way!
And sorry if I caused you some trauma.

It was very gracious of you to accept Juhhmi's challenge. Not too many builders want to make slum houses, so I was happy to see you step up. I plan on playing them!
