Here are some things that i have been working on. All of these require no mesh apart from the Hair Tone.
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
There are 2 of my creations featured at official site that I need to delete them due to a promise when I was an FA, you can get them here.

This lot was featured in 3 most exquisite lot of the exchange.

It is my Traditional Thai Luxurious Blue Dress.
This sim offend some Thai people because her skintone is not Thai at all because when I made this sim, I want to show that Thai clothes look great on any woman and I did not expect it to be featured.

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 :(

Select Artist (SA)
To be a featured artist or even a select artist would be so cool ;]Seriously, I can't make photos of my lots to save my life. :P No, I'm not talking about screenshots---yeah, I know how to do that. But to make all those cool collages and things that everyone else does... I'm a total idiot when it comes to these kinds of things. I tinker around because I don't know what on earth I'm doing. Hence, the really awful, snicker-worthy photos I've created of my upcoming lot "Marcoset Farm".
So, forgive me! I promise this is one of the better lots I've created, at least recently. I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out, and I hope that it will be something you'll enjoy playing!
New updates coming!
Hi everyone! First, thank you all for your comments!I really, really appreciate it! I'm glad you are liking my little work :-)
Also, I wanted to say how sorry I am for the so few updates since the begginning of September. As you may have guessed, I'm really busy between school and work and life! With little free time I have, I usually play the sims or write the new updates on my legacy.
But, the good news is, I have new updates coming! Toddlers dresses and more! I hope you'll be pleased by those too!
Thank you everyone! :-)
So Much Talent!
I've been browsing some of the lots here at TSR and I have come across so many beautiful lots, not too mention, very, very talented artists! I am increasingly amazed at the architecture of some of the lots and I always wonder, "How did they do that?!" I am a big fan of srgmls23 and the architecture there on his profile. Take a minute and check out his site here on TSR and you'll see what I mean. I also want to take a little time here to express to the other very talented lot builders how big of an inspiration they are to me, and how I strive with every single lot of mine to make it more interesting than the one before. I can see how I've grown in my own right as a builder and can only thank the other builders here for my ever-increasing need to "fine tune" my talent and creativity. It's a bit of a challenge for me, if you will, to be as good as those around me, and I can name so many artists who have taught me SO SO much just by example (and it didn't hurt to ask, how did you do that?)....Tiko, dinad2610, iZazu, srgmls23, hatshepsut, MonteBoy24, Pinecat, Madisim, Alyosha, Huabanzhu...and I can probably name so many more. Thank you so much everyone!!!!Retro Theme
I can't tell you how happy I am to be part of the Select Artist family! As some of you probably know already, we were allowed to have our first theme week here on TSR. We ended up choosing the Retro Theme, which you can find here. Also, if you're interested in my contributions for this theme, you can check out my very own Retro Theme section.Have fun everyone and happy simming! :)
....and i am back online
Hello again,With quite a delay, I am back online, well the computer has been online since august, but our roof was falling off, so we spend all our days, evenings and even nights setting up a new roof, as we never tried it before (in game doesn't count in the real world - I got that after the second day :) ), it was quite a job, and still is, but what can you expect, 2 nerds trying to be handy - it takes many hours reading, putting up roof, taking down roof and putting it up againg :) but now we got it - we think :D and I am back.
Thank you all for your sweet comments on my work, I have tried to whrite back to most of you, but if i missed, thank you!!! i really appriciate that you take your time to leave feedback.
SA RETRO THEME WEEK!
I am sooo excited to be part of the first ever TSR SA RETRO THEME WEEK! I would like to thank Thomas and the whole TSR staff for giving us SAs the opportunity to have our very own theme! Look out for exciting new creations from the SAs here in TSR! So far, I have made 2 bedroom sets for this one, all recolors! Check them out and a couple of other retro creations as well!
Crazy Clutter Collection
I've had this idea floating around in my head for a while, to make a bunch of "clutter" decor objects out of both new custom meshes I'd make from scratch, and existing in-game item meshes. And then the aspiration failure objects tapped me on the shoulder and said hello... So here's the first clutter collection, focusing mainly on crazy items like the sack baby, cup buddy, mop lover, and so forth. It also includes a few "normal" objects like coffee cups and darts... and Mrs. Crumplebottom's purse. All objects in the collection are base game compatible; unfortunately, this does mean that they can't be placed on OFB shelving without the aid of Numenor's "Custom objects placeable on OFB displays and shelves" hack from MTS2. They can, however, be placed on floors, end tables, coffee tables, dining tables, desks, counters, and mantelpieces (except for the lone wall-mounted cardboard grilled cheese sandwich).
Modernish Kitchen Set Preview
Well, I have a rough preview of the Modernish Kitchen Set.
I hope to have it submitted soon, and I hope you will enjoy it when it is published.
That's it for now!
Happy simming!
~simmyfan2852~
This week...
This week, I should be submitting the Modernish Kitchen Set. I only have one last mesh to finish. But, I may go back and tweak some of the other meshes I made. I will have a preview for you all tonight!That's it for now
Happy simming!
~simmyfan2852~
Yay!
I finally have enough kudos to upgrade to a mini-site. Thanks to everyone who has downloaded my stuff and especially those who left comments.Hopefully you'll seen new creations from me on a regular basis. The first of which will be finishing out all bathroom fixtures to match Shannanigan's retro colors.
