BACK FROM VACATIONS
Hello to all of you! I am back from vacations and had a wonderful time, maybe to short, but better than nothing. Hope you have had a wonderfut time too. Had great impressions and so many ideas for new creations and lots. So I hope we will enjoy our time together!!! Regards matomi
Feeling Blessed :)
So today I uploaded my second house to TSR. My second house, and only my eighth creation. I was just so happy to even be abled to get my creations on TSR. And now this is the second out of the eight to make it to the Featured Page! I don't say this to brag (although of course I am proud of myself), but rather out of sheer joy! :) Creating and sharing brings me great joy. And being validated by having my work featured is a real blessing. I just want wanted to share my happiness. And also wanted to give a big thank you to Guardgian and Anna Blue...each of which helped me with the upload process. Thank you ladies <3 <3
I hope I will be able to continue to grow in my skills.

Artamishia Bed Fixes
I noticed that the animations for the double and single beds of the Artamishia bedroom set were not working, so I've fixed them and updated the files. If you have downloaded before today, you'll need to uninstall just the beds, download and reinstall the new files. I apologize for the inconveience.
No hearts or thumbs up on your creations
Hello All, Thank you for visiting my page. I would like to say that in no way does the lack of hearts or thumbs up on the creations I commet on is onky because sometimes the area forchoose them is gray and wont let me apply them at all to that comment. It will work for one comment or CC and not the next. I just wanted you very talented Artist to know my lack of hearts left meant it wasnt working when I commented on your beautiful creations. Thank you for all the wonderful fun beautiful things you bring to the game everyday, without which the game would be dull and not special at all. All the CC creators, Mods, Pose makers are what makes Sims 3 so special. Thank you Thank you, with Big Hugs !!!!

The few things that do go into the launcher say that it is allready installed.....But....when i go into my game its not there O-O
2 years and wait... whut?
HELLO THERE!
This is WasabiChi, fresh from the grave!
it's been a hundred decades since I spoke. And now, I'm back for moaaaar fun.
Anyway,
hello TSR! hello, person reading my blog post! hello, TSR friends!
It's been a long while. I've been pretty busy for the past 2 years. After graduation, I faced the real, cruel world and geez! I was slapped by reality and wrestled by obligation. And yes, for the past 2 years, believe it or not, I didn't have a "stable" internet connection.
For the past year and several months, I've been contemplating if I should write again. Seriously, I miss writing here. I miss writing stories and most of all, I miss chatting with my friends here. However, the question is: Do I still have the time to write?
I am a very "finicky"(?) writer. If I am not satisfied with what I'm doing and what I've done, even if I already wrote a loooot, I'd scrap it. I don't like to rush myself and be rushed because I know the story won't be good if I hurry. And now, here I am dealing with the "time constraints" issues. Sheesh!
Then again, nobody can stop you if it is your passion. It is my passion to write. So, I will write.
I'm currently working on my "comeback" story (and I guess this'd be a long one). I hope that I'll be able to finish this soon. I'm very inspired to write this story because first and foremost, this is inspired by a TRUE STORY. I'm really trying my best to develop each and every character in this story. If the odds will be with me, most likely, this'll come out by the end of this month (or earlier). That's IF AND ONLY IF the odds will be with me. (I hope I won't be excessively busy. I am busy. My sched is full but I will definitely find time writing).
To the people who know me here, you must be wondering why I deleted all my uploads (from screenshots to stories) here in TSR. Well, it's like I want to have a fresh new start all over again. I just felt like it.
Anyway, thanks for spending a wee bit of your precious time reading my blog post.
See you real soon,
Wasabichi
Update N9
Hello my little friends!
What am I doing nowadays..............
I'm working on 2 dresses, well, it's the same dress, but 2 different designs. -3-
I've been writing Endless, over and over again........... but I think I got a fancy chapter now ^-^
I'm looking at and tweaking my sims for Heavily Heavenly, while still thinking the story through..
And yes.. that's pretty much it ;o . so sorry for the late updates.. I'll give you a hug D:
Have a fantastic week! ^^
I'm a new person
I'm Kiarra,
I'm new so could someone tell me how people do art , how topublish art and how to download stuff from TSR? Like a house or a sim.
SF Magazine

Sweet and Wonderful people who do a great job with the magazine.
Especially hmsdrco2001 such a wonderful person to talk with.
A great honor for me to be interviewed.
Thank you SF Magazine!
I'm new
Im laydean
im pretty confused on how to create on this website can someone guide me to what im suppose to do i woud apprciate that Alot !
Hey ♥
Firs of all, sorry for not submiting chapter 6 of Fly, you're free yet, I just went on a trip and couldn't submit it from my phone.
Second of all, thank you for all your nice comments and support, I love when you tell me I made you smile one way or another, it just gives me more reasons to continue writing.
Third and finally, I don't know if I will continue my story, since the rating (3.5) tells me you didn't like it very much, so...
More in my Tumble, here: http://prettysgi.tumblr.com/
That's all, bye ♥
Ready for the Future
Maybe some of you recognized that since my last submission some time spent by. The reason for it is simple - my interests changed. Sims 3 did not give me so much fun as in the beginning. But for all TSR users that like my creations - I am ready for the future of the Sims *yeah* Currently I am working for Sims 4 CC and I can guarantee - for the new part of the Sims you will have creations made by Vision of Fashion ^^
So thank you for all the lovely comments to my Sims 3 creations, the nice guestbooks entries and the feedback you gave to me :)
Kiss, visiona
Message in A Bottle, Resumed!
Heya guys!
I'm sorry I didn't get to update you about my stories. :(
I was busy working this past months and been sick because of the stress. (Ya, the job suck my life energy O_O)
I manage to finish up the contract and went back home (my ectasy) but need to recover for one week because of cold and terrible fever. -_-
Anyway, the good news is, I am re-installing the Sims 3 and downloading all CC stuffs. I had a problem with my sims before so, I am going to start from the very start. It would take a lot of patience to do so.. I hope you cheer for me. lol xD
About the novel type of Message in a Bottle, I am going to release the first 5 chapters at wattpad maybe next week. (I'll make an update here) So, if you guys wanted to read detailed Jasper and Erin, feel free to check it out. (Once released)
I already have some screenshots for the next sims chapter but some but it's still not enough to cover the entire chapter. :/
Thanks again!
-Juu
Update N8
Hello my lovely *wink* xD
I'm really slacking off with my story updates! Sorry for that >__< They will show up as soon as possible :) With Endless as priority, I'm writing both chapters. I actually only need to take the screenshots for Endless, while editing the story a bit, however, I still need to put cc back and check if my saves are still working D= .. Yes, you heard that correctly. I had uninstalled my game. Currently everything's going back!
But first, I decided to create one Iro family member, with only Seasons installed XD... You'll see the sim soon! I hope..
Alright! ^^
Oh and you know! When I saw that the deadline for the Black and White pics were put on a later date I was like;
UUUGGHGHGHGHGHHGH.. =__=
Oh well, I guess I'll put some more up then? :P And I see many using quite some photo-edits...
I kept myself from doing heavy edits.. so hm.. I guess I'll do one like that too >3<~!
Have a nice day!
Sims Las Vegas!
Hello everyone! This is my first post here on TSR. So I recentley just came back from Vegas and while I was in Vegas I started thinking to myself, I should recreate Vegas in Sims! So here I am now back at home and I am currently making some signs and etc for the sims Vegas. I have downloaded some great content from some awesome people that I will be using in the hotels and etc. I am happy to say that once I am finished with building everything, that I will be uploading it here to TSR for yall to enjoy! All credit for the content I downloaded will be given to those who created it. I will be back here to give some updates on how everything is going :) I am not 100% sure how long this will take me. But once its complete, the time it took will be worth it all. Some of the hotels you will see are going to be the exact replica of the ones in Vegas and a few other hotels will be ones I have created myself. Until then, see yall when I am able to post some updates! -Efrain

Create A World: Spawners
I made this post in the CAW forum on this site some time back and decided to put it on my page for people who work with CAW.
You can place spawners in CAW from any EP that you have installed. Most (not all) of the spawners listed below are already in CAW. Other spawners you'll need to make available in CAW using a .package file before it will be listed in CAW. For help with that, check out ModTheSims' CAW forum here.
Finding the Spawners in CAW
Once in CAW, in the Metadata box, expand the Game Objects, Environment tree lists (little crosses) so that their contents are listed below them. All of the spawners are in this section. (Note: there is a section called Spawners under Game Objects, but there is utterly nothing in it). The list is alphabetical but this is almost useless unless you know what name the desired object or spawner has been given by the developers. Quickest way is to write down names on a piece of paper as you peruse CAW so you'll know how to find an object at a later time.
In general, spawners in this list will show up exactly as named in the following list. The number of spawns that will occur per each spawner is uncertain unless specified otherwise.
You must have installed the expansion pack that the spawner belongs to before you can see it in CAW. I myself do not own every EP so some of the spawners you are looking for may not be on this list.
Harvestable Plants
All Harvestable Plant spawners will show up in CAW Render Panel as a mound of dirt, but will show up correctly in the installed world in-game. These do NOT need to be placed on a lot. You can put them in any navigable place where sims can get at them to harvest.
"Autosoil:<name of plant>" - plants a harvestable plant for the specified plant or tree.
Here is a list of all the possible grapes from France listed alphabetically as shown:
Avornalino Grapes
Cherimola Blan Grapes
Cranerlet Nuala Grapes
Granadilla Fran Grapes
Meloire Grapes
Renoit Grapes
Other Autosoil Spawners listed alphabetically as shown:
Cherries
Harvestable Kelp
Plums
Pomegranates
Pomelos
Beetles
"Beetle Spawner - <name of beetle> (N)" - spawns beetles only of type specified. The number N is probably the number of times the beetle will spawn in that place. The "Beetle Spawner - All" might spawn only the beetles that are from EPs that are NOT WA, but not sure about this.
"Beetle Spawner - <name of beetle> (N)" - spawns beetles only of type specified. The number N is probably the number of times the beetle will spawn in that place.
"Beetle Spawner (country name) - <name of beetle>" - spawns beetles only of type specified from a specific WA country. Not sure if beetle only spawns once or multiple times.
Other beetle/insect spawners listed alphabetically as follows:
Mosquito Spawner
Spider Spawner
Termite Spawner
Butterfiles
"Butterfly Spawner - <frequency> N" - butterfly spawners that specify how long butterflies of various types will spawn in that place (High=high frequency, Low=low frequency, and so forth). The number N in this case is simply ordinal, I think, and does not have to do with how many times the spawn occurs. If I want bflys spawned by frequency, I use some of all the numbers just to make sure that all possible types of bflys are represented in my world. Not sure if these are just BG bflys only, or all non-WA bflys.
"Butterfly Spawner - <name of butterly> (N)" - spawns butterflies only of type specified. The number N is probably the number of times the bfly will spawn in that place.
"Digsite Spawner - <country name> - <frequency>" - spawns a digsite where sims can dig up treasure. Only spawns digsite items of the specified country. The frequency is High to Low (High=high frequency, Low=low frequency, etc). There is also a "Digsite Spawner - Fragments" and "Digsite Spawner - Generic" which probably work as expected.
Fish Spawners
"Fishing Spawner - <country name>, <type of fish> N" - spawns WA fish by country name and type of fish (type of fish is either Common, Uncommon,Rare, or some specific fish name). N, if present, is probably an ordinal number that does not have to do with the number of times a spawn will occur. Fish from Egypt will also specify Oasis or River. "Fishing Spawner - France, Frog Pond" spawns only Frog Pond type of fish from France.
"Fishing Spawner - <water type> <type of fish> N" - spawns non-WA fish by water type and type of fish (Water type is either Lake or Ocean. Type of fish is either Common, Uncommon, Rare, or some specific fish name). N, if present, is probably an ordinal number that does not have to do with the number of times a spawn will occur.
"Fishing Spawner - Deathfish/Graveyard" and "Fishing Spawner Robot Fish" work as expected.
Other Fishing Spawners are listed alphabetically as shown:
Kissing Gourami Spawner
Sea Sludge Spawner
Sewer Trilobite Spawner
Surface Shark Spawner (spawns visible shark fin only)
Will-O'-The-Wisp Spawner
Gem Spawners
"Gem Spawner - <name of gem>" - spawns only the type of gem specified.
"Gem Spawner - <type> (Nx)" - spawns, I think, a type of gem classified as "High, Medium, or Low". Apparently this is the value of the gem, but not certain about this. The N is the number of times a random gem of that type will spawn in that place. These may be only BG gems, or all gems except WA, or all gems; not sure.
"Gem Spawner (country name) - <name of gem>" - spawns only the gem named from the specified country.
Insect Spawners
"Insect Spawner - China" - spawns insects used in the China tombs.
"Insect Spawner - Tomb" - spawns insects used in the Egypt tombs.
Junkyard Spawners
"Junkyard Spawner N" - spawns a random junkyard object such as an old oven. N is an ordinal number and not the number of times the item will spawn.
Metal Spawners
"Metal Spawner - <type of metal>" - spawns only the type of metal specified.
"Metal Spawner (country name) - <type of metal>" - spawns only the type of metal specified from the country specified.
"Metal Spawner (country name) - Mix High" - spawns a random gem from the specified country. High probably indicates high frequency.
"Metal Spawner (country name) - Mix Low" - spawns a random gem from the specified country. Low probably indicates low frequency.
Other Metal Spawners are listed alphabetically as follows:
Carbon Steel Spawner
RGM Spawner - Egypt
Smithsonite Spawner
Tungsten Carbide Spawner
Meteor Spawners
There are 4 Meteor spawners listed as "Meteor Spawner - <size of meteor>" where size is either Huge, Medium, Small or Small/Medium.
Sea Life Spawners
Note: I have never used these spawners myself so this is only a guess based on how the other spawners I've used work.
"Sealife Spawner - High N" - spawns sealife from IP at a high frequency. N is an ordinal number and does not specify number of times the spawn will take place.
"Sealife Spawner - Low N" - spawns sealife from IP at a low frequency. N is an ordinal number and does not specify number of times the spawn will take place.
"Sealife Spawner - Medium N" - spawns sealife from IP at a medium frequency. N is an ordinal number and does not specify number of times the spawn will take place.
"Non-collectable Sea Life Spawner" - spawns a random non-collectible sea life from IP.
"Underwater Shark Spawner" - spawns an actual underwater shark.
Seed Spawners
There are various seed spawners that are listed as follows:
"Seed Spawner (country name) N" - spawns a random seed from the specified WA country. N is an ordinal number.
"Seed Spawner (type of seed) N" - spawns a random seed where type of seed is either Common, Rare, Special, or Uncommon. N is an ordinal number.
"Vampire's Eye Spawner" - spawns the Vampire's Eye.
"Wildflower Spawner" - spawns a random wildflower. Note: these will get spawned in-game anyway if you have Seasons installed.
Small/Large Animal Spawners
Note: I personally don't recommend the use of these spawners because if you have Pets installed these items seem to spawn everywhere anyway. Using the spawners seem to make these lesser animals over-ubiquitous in the game, IMHO.
There are NO specific spawners for adoptable pets (cats, dogs and horses) - these will spawn randomly by the game if you have Pets installed. There are various small or large animal spawners (ie - befriendable pets) that are listed alphabetically in the Environment list as follows (N is ordinal):
Large Bird Spawner N
Lizard Spawner N
Rodent Spawner N
Small Bird Spawner N
Snake Spawner N
Turtle Spawner N
I believe I have listed every spawner for each EP that I have installed. Apologies in advance for any missing.

First Story
Hey everyone!
I just wanted to thank you for your comments on the Introduction of my Stroy Lost! It means so much to me, because it is my first Story!
It makes me always smile when I see there are new comments and all the nice words are such a pleasure for me :)
So my vacation is half done and I will continue if I am home.
I was visiting an Island called "Fehmarn", a small one in north of germany at the baltic sea. It was much fun and I've got some tan! YAY :D
But the week was too short and I am now at my boyfriends home. I wish I could go back and swim in the ocean. The beach is one of my favorite places so it is very sad that it is so far away. Round about 3-4 hours. And without a car and without a drivers licence.. Yeah. And I don't really want to go by bus or by train.
Okay.. that's it. Just a few words that I am very thankful for your comments and I'll go on as fast as I can!
Have a nice week!
~ Sarah
Tumblr time.
I have two cats, and one of them loves pressing her face against my right hand while I'm using the mouse to navigate around the computer. It's cutely annoying.
So I type this with a cat watching my hands, longing in her eyes that one of them will scratch her head, to state that I've joined the Tumblr ranks (for anyone remotely curious): http://mckatsims.tumblr.com/
Sims Ultimate Collection!!
Wooop! Great news simmers!
Apparently anyone who has the sims2 digital version in their origin account will be getting the sims 2 ultimate collection any day now for freeeeee!! This means you get the entire series :) Hopefully this will inspire some of you sims3-ers to get back to another brilliant game :D I might even have time to create some more custom content if interest picks up in the sims 2 again.
Something to keep you going/try someone new if you don't have all the packs the first time, while we wait patiently for the sims 4! (Not to mention the CAS demo on August 12, rumoured date).
Happy Simming!!
here's a link to the FAQ: http://www.beyondsims.com/54003/the-sims-2-ultimate-collection-faq/

HAPPY VACATIONS

I am happy, next week I will be able to start my vacations and I hope I will have a great time too. All comments will be answered after return. Also new creations will be offered to you as fast as possible.So please calm down.See you! Regards matomibotaki
Why not?
I am too old for Tumblr, but I'm tempted to break down, open an account, and start posting the nine billion pics I have of my sims' adventures....
Why? Heck if I know. Why not? ;)
Weird stuff.
Today I was watching Lifesimmer (if you don't know her, here is her YouTube channel : https://www.youtube.com/user/LifeSimmer (she's my favorite simmer)) and I was thinking. About everything. Related to my Sims, of course. :D
And then, I wanted to play The Sims 3 so badly, but when I started to play, I just wasn't interested in my game & stuff. But when I watch Lifesimmers's videos, I always want to play The Sims 3 badly, but I never enjoy the game. :/
Anyone else has got the same feeling?
And who is your favorite Simmer or/and Simblr?
And I know that I suck at blogging, but - OH WELL. :D
Update N7
Hello!
Currently a new story is waiting for it's approval, and heck, I love it.. now I'm busy with Chapter 15 of Endless, and damn, I love it so much too.
I've a new dress which.. I'm not sure about if I should be uploading it on TSR or not... neh, I think I will ^^ It's a really simple one. But I've had good feedback so yea! Why not.
Diamond Key: World In Progress
Diamond Key is more than halfway finished now. Updates have been made to three of the main parts of the town. Have a look!
Town Square
The subway alights your sim right into the middle of Town Square.
Enjoy family-friendly activities in Town Square, the heart of Diamond Key!
Roller skating is a convenient and entertaining pastime in Town Square.
Town Square is surrounded by seven essential business places (rabbit holes). Going from one to the other is easy; just a walk in the park!
Eat at the Bistro where you can gaze over the park, or sit on the covered balcony for a view of the waterfall while you dine.
Market Square
Step from the subway right into a rural paradise in Market Square.
Extensive community gardens in Market Square offer fresh produce to any who are willing to harvest it.
A farmer's market offers all the charm of rural fun.
Ambitious sims can have a crack at starting their own business at one of the many empty stalls in Market Square. Sell some of that garden produce you were just picking!
An empty lot near Market Square, where both horse lovers and vegetable lovers can live their dreams.
Diamond Key's Legacy Lot is right next to Market Square.
Business Square
The subway is flanked by a food stand (food register) and a newsstand (books register) in the middle of Business Square.
Working sims can pick up essential reading materials at the newsstand on their way home from work!
Chess and painting are the pastimes encouraged in this Square, to stimulate the scientific and creative sides of business.
Business Square gives quick and easy access to Diamond Key's business and industrial sections. City Hall is just a park away!
EA fails.
I bought the latest Store set, the one with the tea set and the cannery station to make jams and canned goods...and I have to say that the EA people clearly did not research what the homemade canning process looks like. 'Cause I nearly had a heart attack when my sim put both of her hands in the canning pot to pull out jars that had just been processed. (You do that IRL and you wind up in the hospital with 1st degree burns on your hands....)
Facepalming forever. Is it that hard to add animation?
New House and New Simspiration!
Hi Simmers
I havent written a Blog post in over a year. I took about 6 months off from creating. basically as I was not inspired and was busy playing new EPs lol. But since May I have come back full force in creating.. having been inspired by spring.
I am eagerly anticipating Sims 4 release in Sept.. and thought in the meantime i would create my little heart out! I believe I will eventually create for Sims 4 as well in due season. I fully plan on still playing Sims3 even after Sims4 comes out.
Anyways.. I have been trying to make both modern and contemporary homes. My next attempt is to be a Victorian style home.
Have a great day and Happy Simming!
Demmit
Sooo, technical difficulties have popped up lately and its really messing up my story progress. I have three weeks to fix whtever's happening, so please bear with me
