Hey Everyone
I'm back from a long break.... hope you liked my blush. For now I'm up to two things that I submitted - a shirt and a male Sim. I hope they get approved! If they do and get published I hope you will look at it and bother to download it! The shirt will be a surprise, but the male Sim will be Ethan Cole. His muscle definition slider is at the very last, so expect a muscular looking Sim. He's my 2nd attempt to make a cute Sim, and when you see him I hope you like him. :D There, the picture on top? That's Ethan Cole.
I TIHNK I've found
I have a few families that have a regular baby or 2 & then a green 1 cuz dear old dad spent 1 too many hrs on the telescope. Soooo this means I have use for nurseries that are BOY, GIRL, UNISEX, oh yes AND ALIEN! Found a nice strip that has star, moon, planet & I can't remember what the 4th thing was.....BUT the colors are blue, pink, yellow AND green. The green is a bright yet TASTEFUL shade of green.....I don't like the neon green MAXIS came up with for Alien babies. SO....I'm thinking as soon as I'm done with the SeashellMelody I'll get to work on this OTHER set. BUT I'm not sure what to call it. I'm not going to go as over-board on colors this time.....maybe just stick with 4 colors & a couple choices of each? I also have a thing for "jack & jill" bathrooms where a single bathroom is connected to a boy's room AND a girl's room & I think that this next nursery wall set will be GREAT for this. I create things that I think I'd like to see more of & hopefully others like them too.
UPDATES
IM UPLOADING ONE OF MY CREATIONS BUT IDK HOW TO UPLOAD STUFF ON HERE CAN SOMEONE TELL ME HOW TO
Sims 3 withdrawal
Had problems on and off since Christmas with my PC but now it is all go and I am back in the game. One day I will have enough time to upload some of my house designs as I seem to do more of that than actually play the game. Think I might design a pet accessories/pet grooming store or maybe an animal adoption shelter.
100 000 downloads!
Wow guys, 100 000 downloads, it's going so fast! Thanks to all my downloaders, you truly make this a great adventure for me!
THANKS A LOT! :wub:

New story coming!
Man, I've waited for this moment for so long! (Okay, maybe not that much...)
I've already submitted my first story (here) and I couldn't be more anxious. Actually, so far I'm proud of myself. I've always started several stories, but I never got the guts to finish them - let's just hope that this one will be different.
Without further more, here's a sneak peak of what it will be - in terms of pictures - the sticky synopsis and some text. (Note: the image and the text here showed doesn't match)

Well, it will have to do. At least I’m safe here.
With two bags on each arm, I went up the several hauls of stairs, already cursing its extension. I put them down, removing from the jeans pocket the keys that were once given to me. I noticed I was shivering, making me feel stupid when faced with this reaction. It’s just a house, for God’s sake…
Synopsis:
What would you do if you saw something that would change your life forever? Something that would keep you from sleeping and waking every morning with fear? Something that would make you feel that you are always being observed, wherever you are? It’s a nightmare, right? Aria knows it well.
After witnessed a crime involving one of her dearest ones, the one who committed it, always professional in its jobs, couldn’t leave any evidences behind and it wouldn’t be a girl ruin his reputation. Aria knows it, so she ran, getting into a town that she never heard about. It might turn to be an eventual hideout. But we never know people at its most, who they are or what they might did or are going to do.
__________________________________________
Oh, just one more thing!
If you would like to read this story on blog (which, in my opinion, is the
best way to do it), I'm also posting this on
http://hurricanesims.wordpress.com/
Oh, and by the way, the ones who are possibly reading this on WordPress
will get slightly different content, since TSR doesn't allow bad words at all.
Well, I hope you enjoy this new work of mine and, uh... that's it. (;
Update - Snake on the Catwalk
Hello everybody!
I updated one of my dresses - Snake on the Catwalk, I corrected multiplier 'cause there was some clothing material on sim's finger (visible when using some poses).
You need to uninstall the old dress and then install updated version.
Cheers and Happy Simming! ;)

I'm BAAAACK -- As a Select Artist again! ^-^
No one be alarmed--I have smelling salts available for the faint and overcome (pfft!)! I am very happy where I am now as an SA again! Now, if you keep crying, I'm going to have to insist that you lay down for a moment or two to compose yourself. :P
Pets fix!
Hi guys
I totally re-installed my game and all CC, and guess what: I got rid of those terrible pets errors! So now I will be uploading some furnished versions of lots I already uploaded, and then there will be loads of new stuff! I am really thrilled it finally worked, because there is nothing more frustrating than spending hours on decorating and then not being able to upload it! argh!
My surgery went well also, so now I will be on bedrest for yet another 6 weeks, but furtonately I have my computer close to me so I can keep on decorating!
Hope you will enjoy my furnished lots! :wub:

Tuscany family Villa coming up shortly
Here is my latest Tuscany lot. it is almost ready for upload.
It features
Big ourdoor area with chicken yard, laundry shed, garden shed, vegetables garden and lovely playground.
Inside is big kitchen, diningroom, livingroom and 3 bedrooms and 1,5 bathroom.
Casa Mia is perfect for the bigger family that loves the outdoor but wont miss out on modern comfort.

If you downloaded this house on the first day you might have been looking at an empty shell in your game. this is fixed now and you can re download now and the lot will be working. I am sorry about it but hope you enjoy the now working lot
Kate Part 9
So here is my 9th set of items inspired by Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge.
I am hoping to upload the set soon, but the Sims 2 submission system has been unreliable since before Christmas and is currently not working at all. The Sims 3 submission system doesn't seem to be working at the moment either. Please correct me if I am wrong about any of this.
My new set comprises five outfits and one hat.

This set requires four meshes available at TSR.
I love Kate's style and like almost everything she wears so, as usual, I was spoilt for choice. Eventually, I settled on the following five outfits for this set (in order of date worn):
1. This is an outfit which Kate wore on June 12th 2011 to attend a church service in Windsor to celebrate the 90th birthday of her grandfather-in-law, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh. I love this striking brocade coat in a beautiful shade of blue designed by Jane Troughton for Pocket Venus. Kate had worn it previously to a wedding in 2009 with different accessories. On this occasion, she wore the coat over the famous blue Zara dress which she wore the morning after her wedding and accessorised it with her nude L. K. Bennett wedge pumps and a very cute Jane Corbett hat. I have done my best to create a hat as similar as possible to the original but there seem to be very few headwear meshes available. I used a the very cute Veil Cap mesh by H.Lin from 2007 available at TSR. The main outfit uses mesh 150211 by BBKZ. I love this silhouette on Kate. It's very flattering and feminine.
2. Kate wore this outfit on 6th December 2011 to attend a Gary Barlow fundraising concert at The Royal Albert Hall in London. This outfit is quite different from her usual style. The skirt is much shorter than those she usually favours and we don't often see her in dark tights. The black lace tulip dress is by Zara and is worn with a black collarless 3/4 sleeve jacket by Ralph Lauren (another favourite of mine, previously worn the morning after her wedding with the dress in the first outfit of this set). I used ulkrhsn's 006 mesh for this outfit.
3. On February 8th 2012, Kate attended her first official solo public engagement, a visit to the National Portrait Gallery in London to view the new Lucian Freud exhibit. She wore an unusual double breasted coat dress by Jesiré featuring a knee length flared skirt, elbow length sleeves, an ornate belt and a striking shawl collar. She accessorised the dress with a diamond pendant, diamond bracelet (both included) and black suede Jimmy Choo platform pumps. Again I used mesh 150211 by BBKZ for this outfit.
4. The 15th of March 2012 was a busy day for Kate. In the morning she visited the Olympic Park in London and played some hockey. In the afternoon she visited the Dulwich Picture Gallery wearing a gorgeous grey Orla Kiely dress featuring a pleated knee length skirt, self-tie belt, 3/4 sleeves and contrast black floral appliqué at the neckline. The dress was worn with black suede platform pumps. Again I used mesh 150211 by BBKZ for this outfit.
5. And bringing us bang up to date, the outfit Kate wore on her most recent public engagement on 19th March 2012, a visit to the Treehouse in Ipswich, part of the East Anglia Children's Hospices group, which included her first taste of public speaking. She wore the Trina dress by Reiss from 2008. Reiss is not my favourite company, but I do like this dress. It has quite an eighties vibe, being electric blue, knee length, double breasted and worn with a thick black belt. The dress also features an oversized statement collar and full length sleeves gathered at the shoulder with buttons at the cuff. Kate usually substitutes the belts that come with outfits for belts of her own, but on this occasion she wore the original belt. I think it goes with the dress very well. Again she wore black suede platform pumps. For this outfit I used Elena's Cocktail mesh, which I used previously in my Kate For Christmas set. This mesh includes a stonking pair of platform heels.
Heyy..
So now I have my Sims games all sorted I will be finally uploading files onto this site. I do upload to The Sims 3 offical site I though for people who don't have an account on there can download from here aswell. So I hope you will like my creations and look out for me in the future...

Upcoming Creations...
I've been doing a bit of everything lately but have a habit of procrastinating when it comes to taking screenshots so i can get my creations ready to be published! I have set some time aside to do just that this weekend so over the next week you should see a few sets from me.
I have a few girls t-shirts i have been working on as well as a set of bedding. The one i have pictured on the bed is my favourite out of that lot so far! I will also have a new bigger earring set (i know, i know!) ready by midweek i reckon. I put a few of them up here to see what will be included. :)

Submit the sims 3
I have uploaded 3 items here and it seems none of them worked and I don't know why.
I hate this, I followed everything and even so it seems they didn't work.
I think I'll just download from here and upload on somewhere else.
Thanks for the nice comments!!!
I want to thank everyone for the nice comments on my creations. I thank everyone collectively because I get an error when I want to thank everyone personally.Taking a small break to grieve...:(

this is a link to his page on FB. You can read of his story and the past year here.
Alien babies
I've been thinking that my alien babies are grossly overlooked when it comes to decor. My alien babies/toddlers & kids all end up with the same walls over & over......sooooo......been looking for some "pro-alien" sets. I don't know HOW to make recolors of THINGS.....just walls & the occasional floor.....so if anyone who DOES feels so inclined to make some cute alien theme pictures or something I would be downloading for sure, in the mean time I'll just see what I can come up with in the way of some wall/floor sets that have green like them or some cute space stuff. ;)
Building for the Future
Okay ... I hope this subject isn't taboo here on TSR because I truly believe this is the greatest Sims website on the web.
I've decided to build a website to support some of my creations and offer space for others who would like another place to show off their own work. However, the main reason for me to do this is to provide a centralized space for the type of 'dark' creations I want to make. NO! I don't mean those kind of dark creations - I mean a place as I build the Nightmist World which is based on my own jaded perspective of the dark side of life.
I'm a fan of True Blood, Lost Girl and other shows of that genera, but not one focused on vampires. What I am trying to do is build a Sims world where I can keep all of the work in one place for everyone who is interested in the same things.
Right now the site is in its infancy and I am not really satisfied with any of the CMS software I have tested over the past week, but am going ahead with the first stages. There isn't much content there and it will take time for it to grow. That's where you might consider joining me. If you have an interest in supporting a site of this nature, please, feel free to stop by http://nightmistlive.com and let me know what you think, offer any ideas and perhaps even become a contributor.
I expect some of the content I will be creating would be better to not be added here - not that I am headed down that 'porno' road. Instead I may have some clothing - torn, dirty, and possibly slightly revealing that might not be on TSR's preferred list. Do I have any now? Nope - so don't visit hoping for some sort of purient joy.
BUT I have no intention of taking my work away from TSR. I will continue to be adding to my small, but growing list of TSR content. I really just want a central repository for a specific type of content where it can be seen and used within its own 'category'.
Well ... now I suppose we will see if the fine folks here at TSR will let this slide by. I'll pop back into the Blogger next week to discuss my latest TSR creations!
Cluttering up Mutske's NEO-QUARTZO upper cabinets.
Most of what I have to say I put in the picture already. I know what a nightmare it is to find the right OMSP's and clutter. I forgot to note that the Mondrian blocks I used were numbers 5 and 6, just in case you don't want the entire set.
I hope this helps someone :)

1/4 of a MILLION!
I would just like to say THANK YOU!!! Thank you to all the people who have downloaded any of my lots, pets, or walls & floors! A 1/4 of a million downloads deseres 250,000 thank-you's! Thank you for downloading! Thank you to those who left comments or hit the "<3 " = "thank the artist"!!! Thanks to those of you who subscribe to TSR & have downloaded some of my work THANK YOU.....it's thanks YOU that I've earned any of the free subscription bonuses......which= enough kudos for 1 free 24hr subscription to TSR (when SUBSCRIBERS download an artist's work the artist earns incentive points....incentive points add up to more kudos). :D
I "play-test" EVERYTHING before submitting, & I ONLY submit those places, critters, or items that I had fun with & enjoyed in my own game.
I have just been making things that tickled MY fancy & uploaded in the hopes others would also enjoy them.
I'm always up for any "wish lists" with the items that I am able to make of course. I haven't figured out the recoloring thing....YET, but when I DO....LOOK OUT.....I've had recolor ideas ratteling around in my head for YEARS! :D Trouble is I'm unfortunatly at times quite the slow learner. :( All I can say about that is "TBI's (Traumatic Brain Injury) SUCK!". It's thanks to Lisa (lisa9999) making a SPECIAL tutorial where she broke down the process of making walls into BABY steps (people have made great tutorials they just didn't CLICK for me) so that I COULD understand what to do. But now that I've "got it" I've not only GOT IT, I LOVE WALLMAKING! So I hope people continue to enjoy downloading. :)
Alive!
Hi Everyone,
I apologize for not being able to upload any new creations. Life has been more than crazy. I am finally getting over some nasty health complications after 6 months and I'm looking forward to being able to start making some dresses again.
Thanks for all your support :)

Hey all =)!
Well after alot of thinking I came to the conclusion to make a beach house with a nice view. So I thought for myself where could be the perfect place to create it so the thought hit me, in sunset valley y'all know there is a community lot called "recovery beach" or something like that, well I changed the lot type to "regular". I've always wanted to build a simble beach house because I used to do it all the time in sims 2 so now I've started creating it. I don't know how long it'll take before I'll upload it but the lot will be up and coming someday this week so keep your eyes opened ;). I really hope you guys will like this lot when it's done.
But now it's time to continue creating with this yummy cup of coffee I just got for myself. I can never create a house without coffee, lol, it sure is addictive =D. But anyways I hope everyone is feeling great and that you guys have been having a great weekend. Well this is it for now, MWAH! =)

My second featured creation
I'm very happy to tell you my Florence Avenue was featured today! You can find it here.
Please enjoy my further creations and leave my a little comment ;) Hugssssssssssssssssssss <3
I'm BAAAAACK!!!
(For now--lol!) Anyways, if any of y'all have been wondering Where the HECK has Murfeel been lately!?, well, it's a very long and rather boring tale, with absolutely no fire breathing dragons, valiant knights, faery princesses or evil witches involved (yawn). Suffice it to say I was having computer problems, but I just wanted you all to know that I haven't deserted TSR at ALL, and that in very short order hopefully I'll have some nice new lots up! I learned some new tricks while I was away, and hopefully those aggravating days of losing progress due to corrupt saves and crashes are now firmly in the past where they belong. ^-^ I missed everybody! WOW, I've got some catching up to do! I'm off to download everyone's gorgeous work now! Ta! :D Murfee Lee
Laptop Working again
I got my laptop a day or two from my lastest post. I have been on and off checking in. Though I am working on something. I am writting the draft for my story that will be coming to you soon. Once I have completed writting it. I will have someone proof read it and see if it makes sense. I will be doing this as well when re typing it on the computer. Once that is complete I will start creating and playing to get the family up to where it is to start though You will get a into with this a bit. You will meet the families as well and their town.
I plan on creating a St. Patrick day pattern and few others as well and get some pets uploaded as well.
Lots of Upcoming TS3 stuff to watch for!
Thought I was kidding about getting stuff done, did you? Huh? (You know you did! Admit it!) Well, got news for you...I have just completed 2 new lots, PLUS three new fun decorative items to add to them! I know, I know...You're expecting a mansion, an estate, even a good ol' fashioned family home, right? Well, that's not always the way I roll. ;) Sometimes I throw something in the mix you just weren't expecting...(see my Biker lot for example!) So here's some peeks at what I have been working on that's kept me so busy I haven't been able to answer my comments yet!


Hope this gives me a GREAT excuse for being a lazy bum and you'll forgive me. :D (As an added bonus, your sim can kick down that ol' sign and then put it right back again! LOL!) Thanks for the thought process Estatica! Ok...back to testing, and building that last lot! Thanks SO much for all of your support! (((Hugs!)))
Love and hugs -

First Lot!
I designed my first lot that I will be sharing. Now, I am sure that anyone who reads this will think that this post means it is the first house/lot I have ever designed.
No. Haha. More like the Hundredth... haha.... Anyway...
It is designed after the house I currently live in!!! YAY!!!
When is a set TOO BIG?
I got carried away with myself on this "Seashell Melody set" & ended up making not just a set but a MEGA-SET & when I counted the files all out it came out to a grand total of 162 files.
160 walls & 2 floors
It started with ONE texture & A matching tile, from there came 2 sizes of said texture & 10 colors of paint, then in game I started thinking how nice it would be to have the tiles line up with the bathroom fixtures since this is how we would most likely tile our bathrooms in REAL LIFE, because I like to use the SFE cheat I NEED walls that are a flat (yet NICE) color to blend.......and before I knew it I had made a gazilion walls. I have the files & have seen them IN MY GAME & I think these may be the best ones I have done yet.....they flow wonderfully & the wallpaper is absolutely seamless. I almost didn't get the paint wall with nothing but paint......HomeCrafter wasn't reading 2 of the 10 colors.....but I got it working so for each color will have 14 walls.
The GOOD news about this is that builders should be thrilled to have so many choices AND the pattern will be nice for ANY bathroom and/or bedroom; the tiles will line up nicely with any bathroom fixture, and since there are nicer walls included with wallpaper/wood paneling combo will make for nice bedroom.....and there are plain paints so anyone who likes using the CFE cheat will be able to use THIS set.
The BAD news: We are having a doozy of a storm & I'm already feel it & had to take some pain pills.......sooooo......the making of the collages is going to HAVE TO wait.......I'm just way too LOOPY from the stupid pain meds. Between the rain & the meds I'm not sure that I CAN get them ready for uploading (cuz I have to make quite a few collages) by/during this weekend. BUT since the ONLY thing left to do inorder to share/upload IS making the collages I WILL be able to get them share-able (ready to hand over to TSR) by the early part of the week on Monday or Tuesday (USA time).....SO LONG AS the rain has cleared (otherwise I'll still be in too much pain and/or drugged).
1 year at TSR!
i CAN'T believe that this hobby could last long... when i found this web, i suddenly fell in love with this amazing site. Then i satrted to learn about CC basic, and now i am picked to become selected artist in this site! what an achievments! :D i couldn't believe i can go this far, thank you <3 :wub:
