Time Flies!
Wow how time has flew by! It's been a long time since I have visited. I am finally getting RL issues under control and look forward to creating again soon. I need to brush up on my skills first and find all the programs again and get all the new expansions...man, I'm gonna be busy....better get started. Hope to see you all again soon.Temporarily Disabled
On November 28th I had an accident while traveling to work. I am currently unable to use my computer and will be unable to create new content for awhile. I have lots of new projects in the works and am itching to get back to TSR. I'll be back as soon as I can.Cute Christmas Boots
This is a festive re-colour of my Cute Boots set for little girls: six outfits, each comprising short sleeved cable knit sweater, short flared skirt, cosy ribbed woollen tights and (of course) cute boots.
This set uses a standard Maxis mesh and is base game compatible so you don't need to have any expansion packs installed or download any new meshes.
Christmas is rapidly (too rapidly!) approaching now and this will be the last set I'll submit before Christmas. I hope you've enjoyed my festive sets during December and I send my best wishes to you all for a very happy Festive Season.
Merry Christmas!
Christmas at TSR
It is very rewarding to see that so many people are enjoying the things I made for this season. But I still have a couple of more things to share before this season ends!The Yummy Village, which is basically a compilation of all the yummy lots. You only need Open for business and Happy Holidays pack to play it:
And on Christmas day, the Circus Royale (Requires Uni, NL, OFB, Seasons and BV):
And that's basically it, I hope you like it!

Chez Moi Teenrooms
I worked on three versions of Phoenix-Phairie's ChezMoi Teen room several days. Today I launched my game and the results were so frustrating... TC70 - not only I forgot the dresser
TC69, that's where I forgot the mirror
TC38 - where I forgot the dresser, too
Yikes! I already have 12 beddings, 9 rugs, 11 paintings... but I definetely have to do much more work...matching walls and floors, curtain, a better TC70 rug, a solution for the TC38 cushion (head over on the single bed!)
Finals and Christmas !
Hello again...As you know, Christmas is coming up which means high schools are on the verge of finals. The semester testing for my school started this afternoon and goes until 2:30 PM on Friday afternoon. I'm a senior in high school and can't wait for these last few months to fly by so i can get the heck outta high school! I can't wait for freedom!!
This being said, and with Christmas coming up, I will absent from both submissions, my blog and the forums for a good week or week and a half. I am always in the chat room and my own chat called #thebenniest. Click here for more information on the chat room. On a daily basis, you will find me in both #sims and #thebenniest. Come chat with us!!
If I do happen to get a chance to sit down at my computer over X-Mas break, I will attempt to start back on a recolor set I'm doing of the hotel furniture seen in Bon Voyage. I am doing a 'Cape Cod' theme with aqua and white wood colors. Pictures coming soon!!
As always .. thanks for your support,
Benny Boy
ITS FIXED NOW!!! Computer Problems...UPDATED!
My graphics card bit the dust and I had to get a new laptop. It won't let me online...I am using the old one right now as it still is good for all but the game and meshes...I had red water no walls and bright pink flashing grass....lol It may a few till I am up and running again...hang in there... I HATE windows vista.... it is fighting me at every turn and will not let me go to TSR>>>>>> Vista thinks it will harm my puter....good example of how bad vista is to use....I have to re-install everything and the game packs, too. Let alone fight the operating system at every turn! arrrgggghhhh!!!!UPDATE!!!
Well I am pretty well up and running again. I have a few minor things to do yet, but I should be able to continue work on my next set. (A grocery store). Hope to have it done within the week. Hope you all like it. Later........
FINALLY!!!!! I have everything working now and the new set should be done within days...thanks for understanding and have a merry christmas all!!!!!!
My Wishes for You All
Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year!Snowflakes Pyjamas
My third Christmas set comprises eight pairs of festive pyjamas for little girls. Tantra's very clever mesh allowed me to create snowflake lace trim at the cuffs and at the hem of the jacket and trousers.
This seems to be a popular mesh at the moment - check out Confide's cute re-colours, obviously created at the same time as I was creating mine (great minds think alike!) We've both used the mesh very differently and this shows what a versatile mesh this is. Thank you Tantra for creating it.
Poll results
Thanks so much for everyone, who voted in my poll! So, as poll shows you wish me to create more casual clothes for adult female SIms :) Lets your dreams came true! I'm starting making more casual stuff, but the next set will be the remake of Casual stripes set (with new meshes) and the new one - Set with shirts for adult males! I'll try to upload it ASAP! And, MARRY CHRISTMAS to you all!~KateK
Becoming an FA!
...I am still speechless as of the moment...
I never even imagined, when I first started submitting, that I would be part of one of the most talented groups of creators in SimLand in just a year of submitting....
Thanks you so much first of all, to TSR! To everyone who has downloaded and/or commented on my creations, to those who has always left inspiring words in my Guestbook and in their comments, to those who have inspired me to keep on doing what I am doing and to do what makes me happy (estatica, thanks especially for all the support), and of course, to Thomas, Anita (Atwa) and the whole of TSR staff! I am soooo honored to be part of such a talented group of creators that I myself look up to!
What a wonderful Christmas Present, TSR!
Thanks once again,
Alyosha ;)
PeggySims has a new site.
Some of you may already be aware of Peggysims new site. I've updated all the links for my peggysims hair colors, so if you've been having problems with getting the mesh, they should work now. You'll have to look for the mesh on the page since peggy has four meshes per page.Also you may be required to either login in if your have a username or sign up for a username, even if you're downloading the free meshes.
Just wanted to let you all know...(smile)

Dec. 22nd Vanity Fair Collection Part II
The Vanity Fair Collection Part II is scheduled for publication on Dec. 22nd. Part II features the bathroom; the set includes a vanity sink, oval vintage mirror, dark wood cabinets, clothes hamper, bathtub with canopy, high tank toilet and several more new meshes and recolors. So, light the candles pour the bath salts and enjoy a relaxing bath!In addition, the cabinets have 2-3 slots for placement of decorative objects. A recommended download for the set is JSF Designs Acanthus Leaf Ribbed Wall covering, it is the finishing touch for the set!
Modernish Kitchen Bookcase
I have noticed when using the base game starter that the Modernish Kitchen Bookcase is crashing the only OFB and up to OFB. I know that the bookcase works with just Seasons, but I will be fixing the bookcase so that it works with all the games. Sorry for any problems, and I hope to have this fixed soon. Other than that, all the other objects do work with the game.~simmyfan2852~
Merry Christmas!
Thank you all so much for your kind wishes of the season. This is the first year that my partner David and I will not be spending it with either of our extended families. So this year it is just us and our little fluffy girl :) So I'm planning a day of feasting and overindulgence to make up for it! Have a safe festive season guys - and I'll see you again in the new year :) hugs Nancy xx |  |
Minisite!!
Woohoo! Finally enough kudos for a minisite!Still looks pretty empty though.. *lol*
currently I'm working my ass off with school, but nex week I'll have the time to make this minisite look cool ^^ It will all be pretty, and some new downloads! ;)
Still breathing!
Yes, I know, I�m probably the last person you expected to hear from, since it�s been so long from my last blog entry. But guess what! Yea, you�re right - I�m baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack! A lot has happened in these past few months - My sister god married, I celebrated my 23rd birthday and found out that I�m going to be an uncle! Yea! Then I also realized I�m finished with studying (but I still have 18 exams left till graduation. 18! 18! AAAH!), and my faculty moved to another location which basically means total chaos and mayhem for a couple of months, which also means - no internet connection! The hardest part, definitely, since that was my so to say base where I could take the time to download and upload content. Now I�m forced to cough out serious amounts of money in cyber cafes with slow connection and practically no time to surf in search for some new stuff. And yes, I know, there always is and option of installing ADSL internet connection at home, but here it costs. A lot! Thanks to leading German Telecom and the monopoly it has on the market.I�m not going to bother you with details. Let�s get back to the magical Sim world. As for the future uploads, I don�t know in which order they�ll appear, but there�s a lot of hairstyles waiting for you, accompanied by clothing sets. You know, I do make skins for the Sims as well. Actually, that was the first thing I started creating. But somehow everyone�s complimenting my hairstyles and requesting more. Weird...Oh well, feel free to comment my clothing sets as well, ok? I won�t mind ;)
Okay. I don�t know when I�ll post another entry (I�m going to surprise both you and me), so till then - Sim away! And stay away from hot tubs during thunder storms!
Feeling Better
I am feeling much better and ready to get back to work. I already uploaded an undies set for teens and working on some clothings and a residential lot. I hope they will be ready within this week. In the meantime take care all. Filiz :)Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays!
I would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays with your loved ones!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
I'm not much for the big, flashing Christmas displays that seem to have landed in my guestbook, although I do appreciate the good wishes. I'm also not going to hunt up everyone who ever downloaded anything of mine and wish them happy holidays. But please know that I really care about my TSR family and I wish you good fortune and good friends and family and good times this season. I hope you enjoy your Christmas or whatever you celebrate and come to the new year refreshed and revitalized. Thank you for being a part of my life.Winter/Holiday Vacation lots
Happy Holidays!!I have just submitted a pair of snowy Vacation lots. Lot 40 is Winter Wonderland, a place where your Sims can enjoy a variety of winter activities. Lot 41 is Santa's Village. This will require the Santa's Lap download from the free section at SimSlice: http://www.simslice.com/freebies/samples-pg1.htm
It also requires the Unnamed Gravel floor tile from the Double Deluxe bonus sets at the official site.
Lot 40 -- Winter Wonderland
Lot 41 -- Santa's Village
I am slack!
First off, let me say that all the well wishes about grandmother and my poll are appreciated and it made this much easier for me. Thank you all for taking the poll and sharing your experiences with me. It means a lot that you did that. Thank you.Second, WOW! I get back and look at my guestbook and there are tons of Holliday stuff. How cool! I am trying to reply to it all, but if I miss you, that doesn't mean I didn't see your post or that it didn't touch my heart. Because...
I am slack right now. I have not sent out cards or anything this year. I am having a hard time getting into the spirit of the season, but my nephews came in from CA and that has helped. I have spent the last few days playing with them and they ROCK! Only 2 and 3 1/2, they really are the true meaning of family.
Plus, this semester was rough. I am glad it is over and I never want another semester like that one. Sheesh. Too busy for words, but I guess it helped keep my mind off of things. Unfortunately, it also kept me from my Sims. Crap.
Merry Christmas
A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all, and thank you for making this a successful year for me, from 0 to gold since March 07, Thank you !!!!
Best Holiday Comments!
Merry Christmas to you all, and thanks for downloading so many of my Items, Jean.
Happy Holidays
I tried to get around to as many people as I could signing guestbooks and wishing you all a Merry Christmas. I'm so sorry if I didn't sign your guestbook, but I do wish you and your families all the best this Christmas and I hope 2008 will be a great year for you. Hugs always queenie
MOONLIGHT~~A second look
Ok, I will admit my eyes rolled a lot the first few episodes, I found Sophia Myles wooden as 'Beth' the reporter. I stuck it out because I am shameless in my visual enjoyment in watching Alex O'Loughlin in full vampire mode, even if some of the story lines were predicable and even lame, I stuck with it. (I would do my manicure during the dull bits)Now, I am glad I did. The last 4-5 episodes have been much better, I love the plot with Mick St. John's wife (and the one who turned him) showing up,(is she human, is she vamp?) and the subplot with his friend Josef (Jason Dohring) the 400 year old cynical partying vampire who does not believe in love, who it turns out, DID love someone, a human from 1955, and in trying to 'turn' her it went horribly wrong, now she lies in vamp twilight, not aging, but deep in a coma 50+ years later.
I was convinced this show would have Beth getting into some sort of trouble every week and Mick having to 'rescue' her. YAWN. It does still occasionally happen, but if the show sticks to the vampires and their backstory, it is far more gripping than the 'rescue of the week'.
Sophia Myles has improved a bit, I read somewhere she had a real problem adjusting to an American accent, that may explain her 'woodenness'. I just saw her in 'Colditz' with Damien Lewis and she was much better than in this series.
So for now, I say Moonlight is OK and I can see it has potential to get better...and there have been more episodes ordered, so if the writer's ever settle and get back to work, who knows?
Cheers~~and have a great week...
Please, NO blinkies in my guestbook!
I sincerely thank everyone who has left holiday wishes in my guestbook. They are very sweet and incredibly thoughtful.But please, I'd prefer if blinkies and animations were NOT posted into my guestbook. I greatly appreciate the thought behind them, but blinky pictures and animations annoy me to no end.
Again, thanks to everyone who was kind enough to sign my guestbook, but if you could leave the pictures out, I'd be grateful. Thanks.
Happy Holidays!
I am wishing you all a warm, safe, and happy holiday season. May your homes be filled with laughter and love.
~Stace~
A Wish For You
To all my TSR friends, to their families (and lets not forget those pets) I want to wish you all Peace, Good Health and Merry Christmas. If this is not a holiday you celebrate, celebrate the ideals of the season, take time for someone less fortunate, do an unselfish act of kindness, and remember how many truly decent people there are in this world. SamMerry Christmas
Another year is winding down. May you all have a wonderful Christmas and a healthy and prosperous 2008!
Beach House Kitchen Released
I've released a new kitchen today, Beach House, consisting of counters and wall cabinets. To follow are 2 sets, Appliances and Dining, which will be released over the next 2 weeks. All objects are base game compliant, in addition there are Seasons versions of the fridge and trash compactor in the Appliances Set. Download the Beach House Kitchen here.
Little Thinker in Mauve , Choc and Farm Style
I'm working on Nofrills Little Thinker childroom in 3 versions based on texture challanges 22, 34 and 38. I started with the chocolate room, because my Young Line Teen room based on the same textures seemed to be a bit too stylish for a child and than I got carried away... The TC22 Farmer room and the Chocolate room are not looking satisfying yet Mauve TC38 matching my SIP Charme Livingroom
Chocolate TC34 matching my Reflexsims Chocolate Youth room, curtain, desser and tablelamp need some more work
Farmer room based on TC22, it definetely needs a fitting wall
Starter Struggle
I am currently planning my next series.. this time, nothing uniform and same looking.. I am trying to make starters... haha... so.. expect starter homes this Christmas season! Modersn starters, that is... LOLAlyosha
Merry Christmas
Just want to wish everyone who happens to visit my Mini site a Merry Christmas and a Happy New YearPoll Results
Hey Guys,I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank those who participated in my last poll. I had over 100 people vote which has really helped me out a lot. Anyway here are the results.....
What do you prefer?
No Mesh Clothing 41.44% (46)
Mesh Clothing 17.12% (19)
Doesn't Bother Me 40.54% (45)
It was pretty close there with "No Mesh Clothing" winning by one vote. I now also know that people don't mind having to download a mesh as well. Based on that though i think i am going to keep going with the No Mesh Clothing. It's been a great challenge for me to create using 1 or 2 bases.
Thanks everyone!
Louise
1,000,000 Downloads!!
Hey Everyone,I feel like celebrating. I have finally cracked the million downloads. I have been sitting between 900,000 and 1,000,000 for the past week and because i hadn't had a lot of new stuff coming out i had to wait patiently. But finally it's here.
Thanks to everyone who has left comments, signed my Guestbook or simply just downloaded my stuff. It truly is because of you guys that i have gotten to where i am today.
Now i'm off to celebrate by uploading some new Sets.
Thanks again everyone!!
Louise.
Happy Holidays!!
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year from Me and Mine to You and Yours!With the upcoming holidays, I have been busy and under the weather to boot!!
I have been having trouble keeping the focus to recolor. Slowing down for a little bit. Hopefully, after the Holidays, I can get back into the groove.
I have a lot of projects in the works, just none finished. Can't seem to get in the mood. I am so pleased with all the downloads, comments and thanks from my supporters. I really appreciate all of your confidence and loyalty.
Keep On Simmin'!
God Bless Everyone!
