Lingerie Collections 2 & 3 coming soon
I've had several request for more lingerie. I've made two more sets. They will be uploaded in the next couple of days. None of these two sets are thongs or are sheer. Here are the previews Set 2
Set 3
I'm also changing the thongs on my first collection to bikinied bottoms. I will upload those as well. I've been told by a few friends that a different choice in the bottoms is preferable. :) I'm very happy to oblige.
Happy Thanksgiving
... to all my friends. I'll be away this week, going to Florida to see some friends for TG. I will not be checking my account or updating my story till next week. Also my internet had been down if you noticed more lack of activity than usual. Love ya's - bye.Finished
Well, I've finished all the bathroom objects I intended to recolor using shannanigan's retro color. They are uploaded and just waiting to be approved.Civic Walkin Doors & Windows UPDATED and on a Free Rotation
I've updated my Civic Walkin Doors & Windows sets . All files are now slaved to the 1-tile window in the mesh set. All files are affected. It's advisable to delete the old files from your downloads folder and re-download the new files.The textures have been greatly improved also.
All files in the Superset will be free to download between November 20th and December 18th.
Just Color Series Three
I have finally gotten around to uploading the last sets of appliance recolors that have been sitting on my computer for weeks. I am now wrapping up the Just Color Series Two sets and have already started on Just Color Series Three sets. Here's a preview:
Landscaping with Terrains ....
This task has got to be one of the most difficult when building lots. Many times I find it takes me longer to do the landscaping than actually building the house. I usually do not use a 'planned' landscape ... it just happens. I start with the large spray tool with one terrain ... then start scaling down the spray tool size using other terrains until I come up with a somewhat 3D effect. I also tend to use the raised-bump tool to accent that 3D effect.Truly it just is luck most of the time in being successful and having an interesting landscape. And choosing the plants to add is not easy either .... there are so many wonderful plants available it is hard to decide what to pick. I use 2 other creators terrains in my lots as well ... margierytka (WOW, great terrains), and Betontod who are both over at MTS2.
Good luck to all of you who are going to use some of these terrains ... just remember to tweak, tweak, and tweak as you go. It'll all happen as it should!
Finally! POLL RESULTS, and NEXT SERIES PREVIEW

Green set on the way
According to the poll results, the next set from colours w/f collection will be Green. It is already done, I just need to upload it. There are tree more colours left for this collection of sets: dusty rose, dusty blue and indigo.Happy Monday!
It's Thanksgiving Week ya'll! And lucky me, I have this whole week off of school.But you can trust that I won't be resting on my laurels... I have a big project ahead of me.
We all know that the VS runway show was this week right? Naturally anybody and everybody will be wanting to skin those outfits, and I'm included!
I, however, am planning to all-out with this project (hence the need for the entire week). I have three or four outfits from the show that I really want to skin and I plan on skinning the whole outfit (that includes shoes, wings, hats, stockings, etc.). There will be two versions for each oufit. A "runway" version - which will include the whole kit and caboodle - and a "ready-to-wear" version - which will be just the lingerie and more what a sim would wear at home.
So yup, just a little heads up on what'll be coming up in my uploading queue.
Happy Monday Everyone!
Modernish Kitchen and Next Set
Hey all!I have finally submitted the Modernish Kitchen Set! I am very happy with how it came out, and when it is published, I hope you will all enjoy it!
Now that that set is done, I will be submitting a new lot very soon (I just have to work on the preview images) and I will be finishing up the Simplistic End Table Set. The new end table set will feature a new end table mesh with two slots, meaning you can place two objects on it, and plenty of recolors!
After that, I will begin work on my next two mesh sets, a third Maxis Match Set, and the High Life Entrance Set.
That's it for now!
Happy simming!

Enjoy them!
Finaly some result
I didn't give up meshing, but lack of time, at least "real time", stressless, all to myself, and enough of it got in the way. Having had 4 days all to myself, I picked the meshing back up :D I managed, with some help, obviously, to make some sideboards, and 2 beds, a single and a double one. It took me and my teacher (Murano ;) ) quite some headaches to get there. To me because I'm still so new at it, and, lets face it, an idiot :D, to Cedric because he first had to find out what I did wrong. Anyway, enough blabla, some result :D These are the surfaces I mentionned:
Once the few deco thingies I planned are done, I shall upload the lot!!
Zipping Files Over at Simphany.com -- Grrrrrr
OK, from what I now understand, as a "safety precaution" by this new freakin' server platform, pkg files (which are the sims 2 files, and which I have alllllll over my site) are no longer recognized, so (if you've been trying to download anything that was a pkg file on my site) you'll see that it's all a bunch of MIME and encryption mumbo-jumbo...Been calling in for tech support throughout the day, and this is the best they could tell me (which was what I suspected), I have to zip these files in order for them to show up for download. I have to go through the entire freakin' site, and zip up these thousands of files...this is crazy.
Anyways, I've already started on the meshes, so in about an hour all the meshes will be downloadable again (I figure this is more important now than the individual clothing downloads, because other sites are linked up to these meshes that are vomitting scripts at them now) so give me a while, and it will all be sorted out.
This is the best way, I guess--it was bound to happen sooner or later that pkg wouldn't be recognized. Could be worse.
Sorry for the inconvenience to Simphany visitors, but it shouldn't take me too long, and now you can actually use Winzip (or whatever zipping program you use) to download, or extract multiple files...might be easier for you guys.
See you again soon.
Waiting for SimPE update...
I guess we are all waiting, more or less patiently, for the Vacation-update of SimPE! Meanwhile, I'm doing some simple recolors that can be used for vacation resorts or summer houses. My first hotel will be coming up soon!Holiday Season
Holiday season is now upon us. I wish you all a Happy and Prosperous holidays.Sorry I've not been uploading for awhile, but have had some personal problems, been sick and roof colasped so had to find a new place to live for a while. Today I uploaded 2 new sets...hopefully they will be published soon.
ONE MILLION Downloads!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!Whow, one year ago I set myself the aim to get one million downloads and I promised to give up creating when reached. Of course the giving up-idea was not meant seriously, I thought it would need 10 years until I have the million. I have to thank all of you and I hope my little works added some fun to your game. Many thanks for all the thank yous and the very encouriging comments. I'll try my best to improve my capabilities every day.
Poor Folk Furniture
I have several sets (living room, bedroom, bath, kitchen, and build) of room funiture coming (and they all match) ... the items are all chipped, scratched and generally just a mess. Now I know you just can't wait for these (lol) .... but they will be out at the beginning of December. Every piece is dreadful .... you have been warned!"There Be Pirates" Paintings
I have no idea why I did these ... the pirates are actual 'sculptures' that can be purchased on the Net ... and I was just playing around with backgrounds ... and kind of liked the look, so I put them into frames. Well, just maybe .... someone might need a pirate portrait. (????)Lots of Lots
I have maybe 10-12 lots that are finished right now. Look for many uploads very soon.Pure Element's Radiance in TC58 and TC64
Actually I'm working on Pure Element's Radiance living room with textures from TC58 and TC64. I'm not fully happy with the light sofa, it needs further work.
Leaving the country
It was confirmed yesterday that we're moving house, well not just moving house but moving Continents.:)My hubby has been posted overseas with his job, so in March 08 we will be swapping the rainy shores of Britain for the sunny climate of The Middle East, which means that sometime in Feb 08 my computer will be boxed up & shipped off to The Oman.
That will be the end of playing The Sims & creating for a while, for exactly how long I don't know. It will probably take my PC 8-12 weeks to get there, so it will be a good few months. :(
Watch this space.
Next Series: ELEGANT SOPHISTICATED MODERN SERIES
You have all decided.. the next series as of now will be a combination of Elegant and sophisticated modern homes! I'll keep the poll up to see what the others may still prefer...PeggySims Free Site is down for maintenance.
For those of you who are trying to get the meshes for my peggysims hair colors, her free area site is down due to maintenance and should be up and running again soon. I'll let you know when the sites back online.Hugs

Simphany.com Undergoing Changeover To A New Server
I'm re-uploading the site, trying to set up the new account, so bear with me while the site is down--hopefully, it should be up-and-running anywhere between tonight and tomorrow morning.Missing Pic
It's back now, so it's all good.Don't know why the Spicy Cinnamon room has no pic. If you click on the pic, you get the larger version without a problem. Must be a server glitch.
Le Tour Dorm
Finally my first teen packed his stuff and moved to college. Since he was always an excellent student with lots of skills and his parents couldn't afford to get him into private school, I decided to give him a better life as as young adult in a nice dorm.I've been playing this lot for a few days now and I had so much fun with it that I decided to take a few shots and publish it here at TSR. It's built on a small lot (2x2), it's only Maxis Content, requires all EPs (up to Bon Voyage) and no stuff packs. It's really fast to load too, so I hope you guys like it!
I'm still around (kind of)
I'm afraid I've not been around much for the last few weeks. Real life has caught up with me heavily with sick kids, a business trip, and a few other things that have effectively eaten up my energy and left almost none for being online or creating stuff for the sims.Unfortunately, at the moment it doesn't look as if it'll be any better before the end of the year. I was expecting to have an extended vacation-at-home in December since I've still got several weeks of vacation left this year, but my boss just asked me to postpone the larger part of that until sometime next year, so I'll just have enough free time left to get my christmas shopping done, but not much more.
I still have a few sims projects in my pipeline that are close to completion, among them a set of add-ons to Hannah's and Hester's bathrooms and a light blue version of Lilian's Garden (with pink detail) that will also mix-and-match with the red version, but right now I have no idea when I'll find the energy to finish those. If you're interested in them, feel free to stop by my page every now and then.
A special thanks to the many people who have commented on my stuff or signed my guestbook. I'm sorry I haven't even gotten around to replying to comments for a while, but I'll try to catch up with them sometime soon. Your comments really are appreciated!

Modernish Kitchen: Slight Delay
There will be a slight delay with the Modernish Kitchen Set. I will probably be submitting it Sunday, but I have decided to add a new mesh to the set, a china cabinet, and I'm improving some of the meshes some more. But, I should have it submitted by Sunday or next Tuesday.That's it for now!
Happy simming!

Dominic's Birthday!
My son is now 5 years old. From his birthday I'm starting a new project: MY SON'S FAVOURITE CARTOONS. Enjoy it!More about elders
I almost forgot telling you: the wonderful mesh I used for that set was created by Confide, that fantastic artist!Elder People
I like very much playing with the elder people in my game, so many of my creations are designed to those grannies and granpas! I've got the approval of TSR to a new set of Elder Ladies Outfits that is going to be published on Nov. 19. And I hope you enjoy it, like I do! :)More Bathroom Matches on the Way.
Two more Shannanigan retro color matching bathroom objects are in the works, the expensive shower and the pedestal sink. That'll probably be the last ones I do unless there is request for more. I hope to upload them before the weekend and if all goes well, they'll be published the first of next week.Hugs & Wubs to All!
Just when you thought it was safe to take a quick peek at my page......Boo!!!
Witchy here lol, just wanted to thank everyone for the personal messages, e-mails, etc, that I have received in the last few weeks.
With real-life taking it's grip at the moment, leaving me with very little time at home, which I try to use to create a lot or two for all the fab people who constantly leave thank you's & messages in my guestbook to show their appreciation for my work.
I miss the forums and my wonderful friends so much and so look forward to getting back and at least trying to catch with all the goings on......oh and the smut!!! lol. Where would we be without it!!!
Many thanks to you all.
Hugs & Wubs

life and death
I just lost my grandmother. Not in the "hey we don't know where she is" kind of way, but in the "she died and this really sucks" kind of way. I was very close to her and just spent the last week dealing with her death, viewing and funeral. I must say that viewings suck and funerals suck. I will miss her greatly.There once was a woman named Mary
who could be kind of contrary
Funny, sweet and full of sass
As a grandmother she kicked ass
I will miss her more than much and very.
WOW! SURPRISED!
As I logged on today, I was really shocked to find my 'Groovy RETRO Bedroom Set 2' featured on the front page! I mean, I was already getting used to having some of my lots featured (and still, that is a big thing for me considering the incredible number of talented creators here in TSR), but having a recolor set featured was a WHOLE DIFFERENT THING! I mean, recoloring isn't really my thing, and there are many much better recoloring artists than me, so this is REALLY a big deal! Thanks so much TSR!Happy Simming and God Bless ya all!

Introducing my new family member
Its been two long months sine we said good bye to our beloved Magenta. Since then our house has seemed extremely empty without her following me around all day long. Initially I was not interested in getting another dog as I did not want to �replace� her, however my kids have been begging us to reconsider and I could see how much they needed a puppy to love and play with. My husband and I eventually agreed and after many hours of research we decided on getting a Dalmatian puppy. We were very lucky to find a lady selling pups just around the corner from where we stay and when we went to look at them I just fell in love with a little lady that has one blue eye and one brown. Needless to say she came home with us the same night. We have named her Blue and she has settled beautifully. She has already been for her first set of inoculations, chewed up all the fingers and toes in the house and stolen the hearts of everyone she comes into contact with. I had Dals growing up and know how excitable they can be so we have already found a local puppy school and will be taking her for training early in the new year. Welcome home Blue!
Sims Artist Union's site is down (update)
**11/14/07 Hey guys. I honestly don't know what's going on with SAU's site because for the past few days it's been down again. I'm so sorry this is making it hard for some of you to get the mesh for my formal hair mesh. Seeing that SAU's site is this unstable, I won't be coloring anything from that site again. I just wanted to let you all know that I am aware of the link not working for the mesh and I really wish there was more that I could doThank you all for understanding and as always I really appreciate
your support.
Hugs,
queenie
11/07/07 Update: SAU's site seems to be working now. So you all can get the mesh for my formal hair colors.
SAU's site has been down for a few days now. SAU is now affliliated with Wicked Nouk Family Sites and NoukieSims left a notice on their site that they would be down for maintenance for a while. So I'm assuming all of Wicked Nouk is down also.
Out of respect for the original creator, I WILL NOT give out any meshes for any of the colors I've created, including SAU. As soon as the site is up and running, I'll let you all know so that you can get the mesh for my formal hair if you need it. Or if I find out whether SAU has their mesh elsewhere, I'll let you know.
I'm very sorry this is happening :(
