Thank you for your continued support and please enjoy!
P.S I temporarily turned off my ratings as I noticed they were going down rather quickly...due in part I'm sure (??!!??) to the faulty gates. If anyone was having a PROBLEM with any other items...PLEASE let me know ASAP so I can correct the problem! Thank you.
Another New Painting Mesh
I have just uploaded another new painting mesh, this is a 1 tile print with 3 recolours:release date 13th May.
Barrette hair and a bow
Replying to a comment left for toddlers barrette hair, yes, I am making barrette hair with bangs for girls as well :). Dr Pixel made similar one before but the bangs are different plus my version is going to be fully animated. So I decided to add girls version after all. Girls mesh and recolors will be separate downloads, this way people can skip them completely if they only want toddlers hair. Another addition to the same set - a large bow (accessory) designed to fit girls and toddlers barrette hair. I plan to make several recolors of the bow, should make a nice addition to the hair :)
Euro Stairs *Recolorable*
I am about to complete my next stair set: Recolorable Euro Stairs without the underneath and matching fences with additional spindles to narrow those huge gaps of the OFB fences. To be published May 10th.
Victorian Bedroom Part II -- May 8th
Vintage Victorian Bedroom Part II - Decor, is scheduled for publication on May 8th. Vintage Victorian Bedroom Part II includes, a canopy for the four poster bed, a blanket chest/coffeetable, victrola/stereo (fully animated), hatbox, ottoman, pitcher with bowl, without the doily and a few recolors.What's up next?
*Adding pics* Next on my submission schedule is a few random skins that are inspired by some photos of celebs, as well as by one of my favorite clothing sites Rampage.com. As always, I'll be adding pics as I complete these. Looking ahead(no pun intended), I'll be working on some male heads and some houses, both furnished and unfurnished, for the following week.
Are those WroughtWeiler Gates acting wacky in your game????
Is anyone having problems with the WroughtWeiler Iron Gates that I uploaded here on TSR? When I downloaded them for my daughter, the only one that showed up in her game was the Wine colored one (the first one I downloaded) which unfortunately REPLACED the original black gate! I deleted all of the WroughtWeiler Iron Gates colors in her "Downloads" folder (C:Documents and SettingsOwnerMy DocumentsEA GamesThe Sims 2Downloads) and like magic...the original black & rusty gate reappeared!!!I am working on this problem and will upload the REVISED and working correctly version this week! I am making this mystery my top priority!!
Thank you all for your patience and your continued support! :-)
Happy Simming!
May
Storybook Stairs *Recolorable*
I have just completed my Storybook stairs. The stairs come without the underneath, are recolorable like any other object and do not require an expansion pack. Stair mesh 2 comes with a shorter bottom step without the black swirl allowing for a proper line-up on split-level stairs. The fence has a square post top for a smooth look when combining them with the stairs. Any expansion pack will do to get these to work. Matching window/ door recolors for my white stairs are available by Cyclonesue and for my light and dark wood stairs by Windkeeper.
I Am Back !
|
I'm back!! Sorry for haven't update this blog for long! :P I just back from Tokyo for about a week. I had a great time with my best friend Ellen there; we visited Tokyo Disney, a well-known spa and the famous Ginza. The only thing made me feel bad was I couldn't see my son for 8 days! It's not a bad thing because I knew it now that how much my son needs me and I will never leave my son alone any more! In the past few days, I just stick with my son like kangaroo mammy and baby! Then, I started to work on a new Sims 2 set, five�items of it are done, I will complete the set in a few days, Besides, thanks you guys for commending my creations, you'll never know how much your comments means to me! Thank you so much!! |

Work in progress - barrette hair for toddlers
I'm making this hair for the upcoming theme week, barrette hair converted for toddlers. I added different bangs though, I love bangs, lol! The hair is also animated, it will bend nicely most of the time, it moves slightly as well but not much.
Sims vs Reality
I have a friend who says that the Sims is a voodoo game, lol. I laugh at him everytime he says it, but can't help but agree. It's just so weird how things happen in the game that resemble real life, and even spookier how things will happen in the game that haven't yet happened in real life--but end UP happening!I love putting people that I know into the game (ex boyfriends, especially--although I've caught a bit of a backlash from people because of that. Some may view it as pathetic, but I believe "pathetic" would be telling me how I can play my sims, and who I can make into a sim).
Oddly enough, I never finish my games. I think the furthest I got was seeing myself get married to an ex of mine, and having 2 children by him, and that was that. I never got to see them grow up, or have children of their own. Something always seems to happen to my game before I can get to that point.
And there's just this strong addiction I have to making Harry Potter characters into sims.
Ball gowns
Well, yes, actually I have a thing for ball gowns at the moment and I can't get tired of skinning wonderful and sexy cocktail or opera dresses...Thanks to Marko for his mesh available on TSR (MESH_MarkosBallGown - ID = 158506), which is my favourite mesh in formal dressing ;-)
RL issues mean no weekend submissions
For anyone who is curious, my submissions will experience a momentary lapse for this weekend due to some family issues that have come into the picture this week. Please keep my family, more specifically my younger brother, in your prayers this weekend as we work to sort everything out. I hope to resume submissions on either Sunday or Monday. I hope everyone has a good weekend.Maya Collections and more flowers...
Just thought I would share a bit about upcoming projects. I have made another "Maya set", this time it's a kitchen and that will be published soon. I just need some final testing so everything works okey :) The next one in that serie will probably be a build mode collection, I have just started on a few things so that will probably take a while to finish...
More flowers will come too, I have made another climbing flower mesh - this time it's my personal favorite: Passion Flower
I just love the look of that one and it smells so lovely! Mesh is done, I would like to do some recolors to go with it but it's a lot of work so I don't know when that will be.
New bedroom
I have created a new clean cut bedroom....and to tell you the truth it�s just sitting on my computer.... I simply haven�t had the time to upload it yet.... but I will do so hopefully soon.... A little sneak preview.....
Wow! I'm Overwhelmed
Wow! I'm overwhelmed by the wonderful response to my Vintage Victorian Bedroom set, Part I. So many fantastic comments, I never knew so many people enjoyed Victorian furniture and decorative objects.Over the next few day I hope to respond to most of your comments. Also, I plan to publish Vintage Victorian Bedroom, Part II very soon. Will keep you posted on the date. Thanks!
New Meshes
I have been trying my hand at meshing and to start off with something simple, some modern square prints with 3 recolours, I have also some more coming up too...
Bedrooms
I released my first recolor of Solander's Bedroom 01 set,as you can tell I love Solander's meshes.The bedroom is as glossy as the kitchen,never grew out of liking shiny things.The cabinet4 in this set wont recolor for some reason,am not much good with the techy side of creating so leave that for the more techy types.
So I have left that one out of the set,I'm personally not to bothered as I think there is plenty of items in this set to be more than happy with.
As you may be able to tell, I am have finished with kitchens for a while,I am moving onto a bedroom fad.I dont really ever know where my creative mood it going to take me,only that as I am creating one set, the idea for another comes to mind.
Cocktail Hour
My latest project is a set of satin cocktail dresses, mainly in pastel shades. I've used a mesh I haven't used before, created by Peggy called Peggybodymesh0002 available at: www.peggysims2.net/english/mesh/bodymesh0001.html. I have to confess I saw Rosemat make very good use of this mesh at Pronupsims.net and decided to see what I could do with it. It's a very cute mesh and I've used the fact that it requires three separate bitmaps to create contrasting linings for the dresses. My only regret is that there doesn't seem to be a bumpmap - so no texture :(. The dress was inspired by a Faviana prom dress at eDressMe.com. I'm hoping to get around to making preview pictures for the individual dresses and getting them uploaded over the next few days. The dress comes in ten shades, as follows: aquamarine, powder blue, champagne, rose, chartreuse, lavender, lilac, gold, silver and white.and then there were 4
Bitzy has made not two, but 4 doors and 4 matching windows from some of my paneled walls. Click on featured artists, Bitzybus, to find them in a few days. This has been alot of fun. I hope you like them.
Work in progress - more animated hair
I'm working on two new hair meshes for girls and toddlers. Both converted Maxis hair actually. First one is short haircut that Maxis only made for adult and teens. I modified it for kids and toddlers but managed to keep all the animation, the hair will be slightly bouncing with movement just like Maxis original. The second mesh is hidden hair from OFB. I know its been extracted by others already but my version will be fully animated and again scaled for kids and toddlers. I now think as I type this if I should make it into adult version as well, hmmm... Will see.
Matching Doors and Windows
Hurray! I'm so excited! Bitsybus has been so kind as to make matching doors and windows for my Heritage panels and the Victorian panel walls. Member requests have made this collaberation possible. I take little credit in this achievement, I'm just so happy its happened.
Thanks, everyone!
I just wanted to take the opportunity to thank everyone who has been leaving me such kind comments on my items. I know this surge is due in large part to the new kudos system we've got going on now... but I appreciate all of your comments and criticisms just the same. :) Please continue to leave me comments and sign my guestbook with anything you might have to say! I'm happy to hear from you and thanks for downloading!!what's New
I just finished writing a new tutoprial on Material Definition Files (should be published later this week) and am now concentrating on this months theme. I am currently working on a Nursery that will accomodated babies as well as toddlers, with some itmes that work for childhood as well. I am also planning on creating several usable toys. Watch for previews of my work in progress over the next few days!Elevated to a new level of fury!
Elevators! Yes, those Maxis ones we were given in 'Open For Business'. They're fine as they go - for everyone who makes smart homes. But not for me, and not for people who like the things I like.So, on behalf of us gutter-dwellers who download the lowest of the low (yes, I'm prattling on about my Urban Renewal series YET AGAIN!), I set about making some suitable elevators...
I had originally planned recolouring the whole thing: the ceiling lighting, the buttons, the floor - these as well as the doors and panels (of course), and that meant cloning a Maxis elevator rather than simply creating recolours.
Alas, cloned elevators don't work. A moment's silence please whilst you all contemplate the total fury THAT caused me. I mean: they look pretty enough, but they're totally unusable by stupid Sims who just stamp and moan outside them. I happily failed my way through several attempts this last weekend, and to show for it, I have the grand total of ZERO working clones.
So, I'm afraid that my purest urbanites amongst you will have to swallow your pride and your tears and try instead to enjoy the new grunge lift doors and wall recolours I've made for your BAAAD lots - and try not to pay too much attention to the unbefitting marble floor, gleaming light and other uncolourable entities. Though I'm sure each time I see them, I shall emit a low growling sound...
Stairs , Fences & Gates...Oh my!
Thanks in large part to cyclonesue at:Click here for her EXCELLENT tutorials on Modular Stairs: :Click here and Fences:Click here, and to the SimPE & CEP team of Numenor, RGiles and Quaxi*, I have now created/recolored and uploaded my first set (of many, I hope) matching stairs, fences and gates. I chose the Wrought Iron set as they are my favorite ones, and I tend to use them the most. I colored mine using the 14 colors I have been using for my Granite Series and then for my Glass Sets. Incidentally the three preview colors I'm showing here; Burgundy, Olive and Navy match my first wallpaper walls & floors sets I put up here on TSR back in January of this year. To see them: Click here Hope everyone enjoys them! Here are a couple previews of first the Burgundy Set, then the Olive Set and finally the Navy Set:

Planned: Elder and Teen Collections
So I plan to create also collections for female teens and elders. I think our elders in the Simworld must get more couture. But there is one problem. I have searched for bodymeshes for elders, but there are really only a few. Only from Neptunsuzy the mesh is cute. If you maybe know cool meshes for elders, please tell me ;) Your suggestions are welcome!Sophia
Edit: I have found some great stuff at MTS. So lets start with the elder fashion ;)
New Kidsbedroom
I'm working on a kidsbedroom. Actually I'm making my sons bedroom LOL. Here you can see how the bed turned out. More to come. Desk, Armoire, Bookcase. All based on the looks of the bed.
Leksvit Bedroom
I was working, a few months ago, on a bedroom set, but had many problems making it. But it is allmost finished. Here some picture from Simpe. Double Bed
Desk
Armoire fully working
Clueless, aren't we?
You really have NO idea what to do with those neon artefact lamps, do you?And I want NO rude remarks! Unless you want to put your ruderies in my guest book - in which case I shall turn a blind eye whilst profiting by even MORE kudos points.
Which will no doubt be a great improvement on the two points I earned today. Don't sit there tittering either.
Artist block, do not disturb! lol!
I suppose every creator hits the wall at some point. My next few sets for May are more like side projects until I find my inspiration. Still some of you may find the use for those as well. Mailbox Recolors (May 7) - something I should've done a long time ago. They match my mailbox covers if you are using them. There is also default replacement version available at MTS2, this one will change the default white mailbox in the game. You can get those here. Fake Mailbox and Trashcan (May 8) - those were a request that I picked up at MTS2, also posted there. Practical Minilights (May 11) - set of tiny lights that easy to hide under objects, can be placed on locked tiles and even on water surface (pond). Includes mini ceiling light and mini fence light. Also some tube shaped lights for the ground in different colors. Baby Diapers (May 17) - made for the upcoming monthly theme. Will replace the game default white diaper used for babies (not toddlers). You can only use one color replacement at a time. Still, its better than dirty white default diaper, lol!Doll bed 2
Oups! I was in a bit in a hurry when I reupploaded the bed. It appeared under mirror insted of decorative misc. I have reupploaded it again toghether with the RagDoll chair and Rag doll shelf. All with less polygons and proper description!Hi
Hi and welcome to my personal page.....i hope you enjoy my creations. Im known more for my clothing than anything else but i have recently started to recolour furniture.....so its the start of something new and exciting for me. Anyway thanx for checking out my page and i hope you like what you see;) Kindest Regards. Chris XxX
Yikes!
Now that I'm able to submit items, I've got a whole flood of things coming your way! In the next 3 days, you guys will have at least 50 new recolors of mine to choose from and a whole lot more should follow in the next couple of days after that, depending on how many more I am able to get submitted right away. Among the new items heading your way this week will be more crafted flower recolors, bay window and glass recolors, outdoor foliage recolors and hair recolors! AND THERE'S MORE WHERE THAT CAME FROM!!!Have you just LOST 50 kudos points?
In the early hours today (1st May 2006 00:10 GMT), some very kind person has just lost 50 kudos points because of my innate and irrepressible stupidity.Does the following apply to you?
(1) Did you download AND comment on my Invisible Driveway?
(2) Is your comment now missing from the aforementioned driveway?
(3) Have you lost 50 kudos points today due to a deleted comment?
If this applies to you, contact me urgently so that it can be put right. You see, I was busily closing my many hundreds of Internet Explorer windows on my PC when I missed and clicked a pop-up window of comments that was still open. The stupid mouse pointer (yes, my mouse is as stupid as I am) clicked directly on a 'delete comment' link and one of the comments on the driveway is now missing. This means someone is down by 50 kudos points.
I've already contacted TSR in the hope that something can be done to identify whose comment I deleted, but please do let me know if you think it was you.
I'm now going to hold a mouse-burning ceremony.
Vintage Victorian Bedroom
Hi, I hope to publish my Vintage Victorian Bedroom Part I on May 2th. I'm still loving the Victorian Era, and working on Part II of the bedroom set. I just finished a new ottoman (Part II), here's a preview...
