On to December

After being very busy to get everything finished for Halloween, i'm now working on getting everything ready for December. Lots of Christmas things to sort out and make ready for upload. Walls, Floors and Rugs for Sims 2, and Ice terrains, Patterns and other things for Sims 3. I've also been learning about making Colorable Walls for Sims 3 and i hope very soon to upload these too.

My problem has allways been and still is, i want too much ;) I just love making a little of everything and of course i hope people will enjoy what i create as much as i do making them :D

Can't believe I have 2,250,052 downloads!

Looked just now on my profile page and I see my Downloads numbers have gone up! Wow! 2.25 MILLION downloads! Wow wow wow!

A huge HUG and Thank you's and Some HIVE FIVES and WOOOOTS to all the amazing Simmers out there that find my creations worthy of downloading and playing in your game! I am so humbled by this! *** Mwah! kiss kiss! ***

I have LOTS more on the horizon. Currently I have 1617 creations published and even now have 15 more approved and coming up on their publishing date. I realize I have pages upon pages on creations to look through.. but please do take the time to look through them if you can.

Back in 2009 I did recolors of Maxi's Punching bag and even the microwave and other different things. I have a tonne of Shower Curtain recolors for all the base Game showers and shower / tub combos. ( Psst.. I plan on making some new sets of shower curtains soon! One idea at a time LOL)

Until this last month when I came out of retirement after 3 yrs hiatus I did recolors of Only base Game items or Custom Content.. so ppl with Base Game can find lots for their game.

I do plan on doing some more Nightlife Object recolors as well as my fave... Custom Content. :)

Also to add.. I intend on getting Sims2 University very soon for Building and recoloring Uni objects. 

I have Sims3 base game.. and in my blog post from a few days ago.. I created my first house ( got rejected lol.. as i have to fix a few submission requirements) In the New Year I plan on trying to figure out Sims 3 more .. I havent even PLAYED it yet! LOL.. and also continue with Sims2 . So much to learn and I have always wanted to learn ( for Sim 2 ) how to create clothing and my own object meshing. I tried once with Clothing in  2009 and it was a disaster! LOL. Once I learn OBJECT 3D meshing perhaps it will open the door to clothing and or HAIR for Sims 2.

I know! All this and when do i have time to work... sleep or spend time with hubby and kids! LOL.

Anyways THANKS for all your continued support and feedback! I love getting comments and Guest Book entires and I dont mind PMs either! 

Love to you all!

My Funny Secret... still after all these yrs and 2.2 million downloads later!

LOL... back in 2009 .. in a Blog post I revealed a "little secret" that I didn't use PhotoShop or GIMP or anything else for recoloring. I used standard MS Paint!!

Over 1600 creations and 2.2 million downloads ...I am STILL USING MS PAINT! I don't use anything else.. with the exception that i use Adobe Photshop Elements ( trial version) at present ONLY to get the 4:3 ratio for screenshots. I dont know how to use it for anything else!

I know I know.. my bad. I really need to move on to the "next level" of professional looking recolors and screenshots.. and learn how to use at least Gimp . I have it downloaded.. just have not gotten around to reading tutorials on all I can do with it.

Yeah I am a bit set in my ways.. but i know I need to move onward and upward in my creating skills.

With our Cuban getaway only 22 days away .. I figure I wont head into any new territories of learning until AFTER the trip. I have enough to do.. and I am quite able to create with MS Paint for now.

Yrs back a well meaning Lady told me on the Forums.. when I was considering getting into recoloring..that I would have to get Photoshop or some other editing software.. because I would NEVER be able to recolor with MS Paint. 

Hmmm... not true. However LOL.. I am limited in some things with the Paint program.. so the inevitable must happen .. i must learn new things. grrrr...

Anyways, there you have it! MS PAINT.

Delayed UGH!

 I have written the next two chapters for Domino L.O.V.E, however I have been extremely delayed in getting them out there. I have been super busy lately, it seems as if life is on the fast track right now.

 I am hoping to get both Chapter Two and Three out there within the next two weeks hopefully all goes accordingly. Just bare with me. I am trying to get it to you guys as soon as possible, I am really excited about the next two it brings the whole story to light and you learn a lot of things.

Meshing, meshing, meshing

Hi Folks! I'm back to meshing! I've just learned Maya and just started a new set which I hope to finish in some weeks, hopefully.  My lack of uploads this autumn, and year, is because I've just began a new school, which is 1,5h from my home. As a result of this, I'm coming home very late which gives me no time for Sims. But as fast as I have time, I will do some meshing! Stay tuned!

One more joined one here!

Hi, finally here! I've just registered to TSR. I've got few problems with my profile cause I'm so damn stupid with these things... Anyway, my avatar is soooo crabby and I'm gonna change it sometime! Btw, I used to like that sim (in the picture) a lot but yeaaah, I created it like maybe a year ago. So obviously it's not that amazing anymore :P

I'm pretty sure that I'm not going to post any of my creations simply because my creations suck. I've tried to do some stuff but no, I'm not going to try it anymore. So I'll just post some of my screenshots if I still fancy jutskailla here after few weeks...

I'll be flattered if you guys comment or ask something. It's quite lonesome to just post here by myself... Any comments are welcome!

Dear Jayden, Break the Ice, and Seasons

At the moment I am awaiting sims 3 seasons to download, and I am getting excited because I finally get to incorperate seasons with my sims stories! Wooo! Anyway, I changed chapter 4 for those of you that haven't reread it. And Chapter 5 will be out soon. As well as my new story Break the Ice. Can't wait. Love you all! Bye for now.

Aha! My FIRST SIMS 3 House!

Oh my! I created my first ever Sims 3 house and I have Uploaded. Lets see if it gets accepted. Buy that was tough! What a HUGE difference from Sims2 . It is so hard to zoom in and out etc.. I am a newbie at Sims3 and still learning the ropes! It took me like 2 hrs to build this house LOL. All Base Game and Maxi /EA material.

Let me know what you think. I loved the back ground of the LOT .. on a cliff! These Gridlines.. I dont know how to turn them off. I googled help on this and apparantly there are two different types.. main gridlines and smaller that you can toggle on or off in build mode. I turned them OFF in build mode. Again I hope the lot gets approved. If not here it is for the Sims World to see. I am so very proud of myself!!

Sims 2 Play Dandy Table and Chair Mesh weblink error fixed

 So finally all the Sims 2 Play Dandy table MESh links to the original website are fixed thanks to patient TSR staff :)

As well I updated Sims 3 Plays website on older recolors from 2009.. such as a Dandy recolor and a KELLY bedroom set! The website has changed to SIMS 2 PLAY ARCHIVE.

So sorry for any inconvenience!

Car (La Parisienne) inspiration 1928

I wanted the lines are the most perfect possible. Because I was inspired by a car in 1928. And I do not create a car (only furniture).

Hey!

Hey guys, so I have lately been into writing stories on TSR. So, I started a new series called "A Whole New World" you can check that out in my stories page. Also, I am trying to get a new (long) story posted, it is sort of my version of the television show "What Not To Wear" and if you like that, you should check out this story once it comes out, and if you haven't seen that show, click the link! Anyway, *sighs* sorry I've been keeping ya'll waiting for my next creation for so long, TSR keeps denying my stuff :( it's my fault, i know, but it makes me sad... I am trying to upload sims I have made but they keep telling me to read the new pic 4:3 weird thing even though they accepted my pics.. idk :( also, my Sims on my computer stopped working and I have been trying to install and uninstall again....so, sorry for that!! Makes me a little mad... but on a lighter note, things in my un-online life have been going well (lol) and that brightens things up quite a bit! Hope you guys are all having a wonderful week like I have been....mwah! (Sorry I like to play around with BOLDness and italics) ALSO before I go I want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH for getting my 2385 downloads on "Riley The Kitten"

MWAH! <3

Custom Content is Officially an Addiction.

LOL I am currently building a house for the next chapter of my story, and the only thing I can think of is. " Darn I already used this in the other house, I need more cc" It's really funny because at the same time I'm thinking this. My game completely crashes, because it already has WAY TO MUCH custom content. It just makes me chuckle how addicted you can get to downloading cc and only downloading the most realistic cc. HAHA 

In other news...

I have submitted chapter 4 of Dear Jayden, should be out soon inless there is something inapropriate in it, which I don't think there is. And chapter 5....is not even started LOOOL. I've been so busy with other things and life, I've lost so much sleep over this. and I finally slept last night and lost tons of time that I could've used to work on chapter 5, but that tis okay. I love writing so much its so worth it. Anyway, here's to my 3rd Blog post. And I'll probably end up posting more soon. love you all.

soon a new project bathroom SATO

I work on my next bathroom for TSR. A corner of peace and serenity. Soon on TSR!

Errors in new Table Set

Hi All... it has come to my attention that in my recolors of Sims 2 Play's Dandy Table Set ( Which is table frame, chair frame and seat fabric) that the hyper link to the Original Mesh is not connecting properly. This is the correct link however Sims 2 Play's website is now SIMS 2 PLAY ARCHIVE and is a google site and i think that is the reason the hyperlink is not working. It is the only way to get that original mesh. 

I have contacted SUBMISSIONS Staff today via email to ask if I can go into already published creations and try to fix these problems. I have some older recolors from back in 2009 of Sims 2 Plays meshes that now need to the new site Update. Argh.

While I was at it.. I also asked if I could sumit better screenshots of Lots I submitted in OCT 2012 ( when I first came back from retirement) and hey i also asked if i can shorten my USERNAME to MFG... instead of the longwinded Mightyfaithgirl. I hate the long username but i first joined in 2005 and i have been stuck with this tag name ever since.. which sucked once I started uploading creations.. as i wasnt about to make a new account. I hope they let me!!

Anyways.. anyone wanting to download my recolors of the Sims 2 Play DANDY table set.. I hope this helps find the mesh and I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience. The mesh is on Page 19 ( or OBJECTS 19 as it is called on that site) at bottom of page.

Happy Simming and TGIF!

~ Jackie

TSR Goes to the EA Screening of Seasons!

Seeding clouds....Cutting Out Snowflakes.....Setting World Thermostat.....

That's Right! New loading-screen words means a new expansion pack: Seasons is coming! The long awaited Seasons Expansion Pack is almost here. I had just a precious few hours to look at the expansion and play a bit with the new features.

As I turned on the computer in anticipation of clicking “Play Sims 3” I was just thinking how cool this new expansion was going to be. I said to myself "Now Now - keep this excitement down lest you be disappointed". I had nothing what-so-ever to be scared of as this little simmer had wide eyes and smiles as soon as that game loaded up and I had a chance to look around. This has got to be the best expansion pack to date from our friends at EA. So what kind of goodies do we have to look forward to? Well, along with what you have heard and seen already, there are even MORE goodies…

Of course the season change is the most excellent change. You can control your seasons in the game’s options – such as turning off a season or two or set how many days a season will last. There will be some new skills like snowboarding and ice skating. That's right - They can ice skate – even on larger ponds. The "lake" freezes over and they can skate on it. There is a ‘Holiday’ for each season and we saw a demonstration of the "Gift" day for winter.

Winter time brings a new clothing option for outdoor wear. You choose the outdoor wear in CAS and they automatically change into that for the winter. Of course, any Sims that forgets may freeze to death. Yes they can freeze to death without the proper clothing. Oh and mistletoe! Yes mistletoe for all those love-birds or wannabe love birds. But nothing can beat the snowmen. They are hilarious. You can choose from several designs for your Sim to do. Building Snowmen is interactive so your Sims can get together to play in the snow.

Summer brings summer games such as horseshoe throwing. Each season has something new to do. Seasonal changes bring changes to leaves, shifts in weather etc. You also will have the ability in the options to "tone down" the weather. There are options to tick off and on for hail and rain, among others.

There are a few new hairstyles and loads of new clothing. This simmer got a kick out of the long johns! Made me laugh out loud....They have added a new feature to the work tab as in circling in red if you are missing school or work. Hard to miss if you are trying to skip your responsibilities!

And great news for those who missed them - aliens are making a return, yes! And men can bear the burden of childbirth once again!

EA has brought our Sims into the new millennium with this expansion. Yes they have raised their heads long enough from our demands to notice the real world....Our Sims will be able to online date! That's right, a screen pops up of the available single Sims and they can choose whom they think will be the next **cough** love of their life. The photo booths are one of my fave features. Each season festival will have new photo booth interactions. The Sim can get in the booth and take a portrait. clicking on that portrait in their inventory you can see it and have the option to Facebook it or twitter it as a greeting card. The photo has the particular season's background on the portrait. Of course if Twitter or Facebook are not your thing you can always hang on your Sims wall. Unfortunately we couldn't get a print screen so I could show you....So you'll have to buy seasons to see! ;O)

Just when you thought of every possible way to make your simmies’ lives a mess, EA has come up with more. They will now be able to get sick. I mean sick sick, The Flu being one. But no worries! You can go to the local hospital for a flu shot.

As I droll on here you may be interested in the new lifetime rewards. Yes they added quite a few. Some include The Cloudenator for 30,000, Immune to Heat for 10,000, Immune to Cold for 10,000, All Weather Champion (which makes you super great at all seasonal activities) for 10,000, Simmunity (yes super immune system) for 7500, Festival Frequenter (Able to earn more festival tickets) , and Competitive Eater for 5,000. 2 new traits Loves Cold and Loves Heat have also been added in CAS.

All in all I think we are all going to get a treat. The only disappointment? Having to come home and play a non-Season's game!

First Time

I have just started The Sims Resource. I don't have a lot to talk about, but I'll figure it out.  I am a California teenager, who has a big dream.  I love to write and present movies.  I have been trying to get my new series ready, but it has taken me forever.  I first fell in love with the sims when I was thirteen.  I then figured out you can make movies with The Sims 2.  I had a great idea for a series, and now I have been working on it since.  The series I have been working on is NEON.  I have more to come, like, SCREAMAGERS, BEING 13, MONSTER, ARTIFICAL TEARS, and bunch more.  I don't care about the views, but finishing a production has been one of my ultimate dreams.  Most of my series are based on true events, that have happened to me, or people I know.  I also have another goal.  I want to be famous.  Not like, Hollywood famous, but I want to be known.  I want to feel important, unlike my life right now.  I want to be famous on Youtube, and be loved for who I am.  I never feel like I fit in, but I always try to keep a smile on my face.  When I make or write productions, it makes me feel better than usual.  It makes me relax and concentrate on what I love to do.  

I have written ten series.  I haven't gotten to the end of any of them, and they are really dramatic.  Neon, is based on my life story is my first one.  I feel like I need to share my life story with other people, so they can understand, that life is hard, but you can work through it.  I know other people have problems, and no one cares.  I feel like I should show them in a movie, or series, on how it can effect someone.  Life, it's hard, but everyone can be strong and go through it.  I have had the thoughts of suicide, cutting, I have been anerexic, bulimic, etc.  I feel that I have wasted my life on the worst sides of it.  I then realized, that there are good times, and bad.  My point is, never do anything you are going to regret.  Look at life, tell it to move out, because you are yourself, and life can't put you down.  

My name is Tarastarr Levine, and I am strong.  I have been through hard trials, but that makes me who I am.  My dream is to be a Youtube star, and to make series, based on trials, everyone has.  I know no one is going to read this, but I believe no matter what size you are, if you have a boyfriend or not, short or tall, pretty or not, you are who you are, and no one can change you, only you can.  You can have dreams, and no one can stop you.  I'm Tarastarr, and I am a dreamer.

Still working on the next chapter

For all who have been reading my new legacy The Diary Legacy, just to let all know I am still working on chapter 3 and it will be out real soon. I guess I just had a bit of writers block, but now I got something I'm working on and chapter 3 will be out real soon. So don't think I've given up on the story, I haven't, I'm wanting to see this story through and finish it. So please stay tuned for chapter 3 and thanks for reading. And if you hadn't read this new legacy please check it out and tell me what you think.

wishing i had the skillz

 I love this site, so creative with awesome sim creators, sadly i wish i could make stuff also but unfortunely a) the programs you can make teh stuff in hates my laptop and b) the one time i used it on another friends comp i realized i had no freaking skills with it. i spent an hour trying to do on simple thing and nada... yeah... i'm giving up. also my friend started getting annoyed and wanted there computer back.. ah well at leats i can still play sims3 on my own laptop even if loading times are sad. note to self... next laptop needs better graphics/memory

Getting back into my groove!!

So I have had alot of new trials and tribulations with the new screenshot requirements. First they were blurry.. and then I started taking prtscreen shots and then cropping and fitting to the template dimensions.. this caused some ofthem to look s t r e t c h e d out LOL. ARGH. Finally this weekend I remembered some things I used to do. So now I have added a border around them.. that way there is no stretching. 

I have a tonne of lots out and new ones coming out. I think that will be enough of the lots for awhile. Moving on to more re coloring. Have some great ideas for Maxi items and also custom content.

So Happy Monday ( yeah right!) and Of course Happy Simming!

Yesss.

I could never figure out how to use TSR workshop for Sims 3 clothing, so I decided to redownload mostly all of the Sims 2 games... && started using the bobyshop today. I have to say... it's definitely easier than the workshop lol. :)x

I think I may like being a designer... kinda a designer, anyway haha. XD

I'M BACK :)

Hello everyone ..

As you may or may not know, i had Laptop issues a few weeks ago and had to take a break from TSR, whilst i went away on holiday and also take the time to get my new Laptop up and running.

My Laptop is now working & my wall and templates have been recreated once again.

New templates have been created & new colour pallettes to.

I will be submitting my walls and floors to TSR in due course so watch this space.

Bye for now.

They have a blog on this thing?:D

So, I have a list of 10 chores, 3 pieces of homework and I need to pee.

Naturally I'm on the computer instead =^.^= 

But seriously, they have a blog on this thing? -MIND BLOWN- :D

Well, this escalated quickly. Such an interesting 1st blog >.> 

Thanks for comments!...

Hi everyone!

I would like to many thanks for your nice comments and feedbacks that you left on my works. I'm trying to read all and answer them. However, this period is very intensive for me. So I'm late to reach you. I'm so sorry. Thank you for your understanding...

Happy Simming! 

   ...Coming soon!.....

Where did you get that Hair?!

A constant question on TSR is “where did you get that hair?”. Since most of us have 1000s of downloads and it would take a long time to hunt down that exact style, I have decide to post my top hairstyle sources.  A quick glance at my downloads tells me that most are from: TSR (Newsea an obvious favorite), Peggyzone.com, Coolsims.net, and Raonsims.com. For all those looking for hairstyles, I hope this helps.

omg!!! monster!!!

Subscribed :D

I finally subscribed and there are so man ypretty item si like :3 it's going to take forever to download them all though (-.-lll)

Hello everyone!!! I have a big problem with my computer today, because when I started it, it made a lot of noise and is not able to work. Hope I can fix it as fast as possible!!! Very sad about it!!! Hope I am back as fast as possible to offer you new creations!!! Regards matomibotaki
