I Love FRAPS

I have begun using FRAPS for my screenshots. No more blurry nasty EA cameras. The pictures are clear and well defined and well lit. Yay- I might even get around to writing up my Goth family story soon. Just comparing the pictures I took before my last upload of Alex Goth in College - so yucky

Definately a mad cow

I have just discovered my dashboard - yes I have been a member for a long time but more or less lurrrrked on the outskirts of the TSR community.  But now I've decided to take the plunge and become more of an active member. 

 

I wish to thank all the wonderful members of TSR for their inspiration, advice, tutorials, and friendliness! 

 

Hopefully I can contribute and give back to the community that has given so much to me!

'My Baby Pony' Nursery Collection

Firstly, a big thank you to everybody who left comments and messages regarding my previous nursery and bedroom sets - they are much appreciated - and I know some of you are waiting for more in the series! Since I don't like to disappoint if at all possible, I thought I would mention that I have just uploaded a brand new nursery collection: 'My Baby Pony' Nursery Collection There are previews of all of my nursery and childrens bedroom sets in my 'Gallery' on my minisite (including some yet to be released ;) ), so if you've missed any, or just want to be nosey, pop on over and take a look! Hope you like!

Discovering things on the new site......

Well, I got some time this morning without my son hanging on me and was able to wander around the site. I initially didn't like the changes that were made. There are many features I would have liked to see kept. But there are alot of things I have found that I like. I love that you can buy parts of a mini site for your profile page. So I am working on updating my profile. Then I found that I have a blog and I don't have to spend Kudos on it! That's pretty cool.

As for creating, I haven't stopped. I have many more ideas and I have not finished my Studio K project. I was working on it and I discovered that the Leyris nurserie is kind of difficult to do the way I planned. So I am making a few nurseries, not exactly Studio K matching but cute anyway. My current one is a boy's nurserie. Here's a pic of some of it, I have more to finish yet,

It's a pretty extensive nursery and I am going to make some grow-up type stuff too so it can be used for children as well as babies. I should have it up soon(I hope).

Free Download - The Alta Apartments

My university dormitory The Alta Apartments will be free to download from Feb 8, 2009 to Mar 8, 2009. :)

After a nice game crash, here's another one, a blog entry emptying.

Now, this is just unfair. I feel like a 1.0 user, better put, I real loser.

After finally stopping to fume about the last game crash, I have made a nice long blog entry, and it gets emptied out all of a sudden. I'll be paranoic from now on, copying and saving all the time.

Anyway, what I was going to say in short, is that I decided to upload the small house I created for Jacob Black (and his dad), because eventually it is a cozy little home for a starter family and I decided that it was cute, really. It is on the beach (La Push First Beach, as in the book New Moon) the washed-on-the-shore tree trunk is there, surrounded by a pine forrest. Yes, it is supposed to be at a rainy northern territory, sorry folks, no palm trees this time. It also has a relatively huge garage, because that's what Jake is doing - besides being a warewolf - he builds cars. So I guess I will put a buildable car into the lot, so Free Time expansion pack will be needed. (And Nightlife, because of the cars.)

 

Hurray! The dream is materializing!

What the heck is she talking about? you are probably asking yourself. What dream?

The "dream " of having my own website! Thanks to a very special select artists blog today I discovered a great web hosting site.. its not free but it IS affordable ( to the point of convincing my hubby to pull out our weary credit card for yet another expenditure!)Ha HA! I am bubbling with glee! Woo Hoo! I can start out with free hosting but i wouldnt be able to access alot of the web tools and widgets they offer.. so i am willing to pay a monthly fee. ALSO it has a free BLOG I can sign up to ! Woooo Hoooo again! I really enjoy blogging but i am feeling just slightly stifled here at my beloved TSR as I would like to be able to do MORE with my blog. It seems I cannot post photos at the new version and well .. that makes it a little dull. Because.... my other dream ( which has been a lifelong one too) is too write. Wow.... my three favourite things .. alll in one. Creating for Sims2, writing AND showing off my photography cuz I just loooooove taking pics ( and would really like to take some courses on photography ). Now i ma sooo incredibly excite dot do daily blogging .. in color and with pictures ! Yippee!!!!!

So.. you all know what this means right? it means that my uploads to TSR are going to slow down considerably. 1.) because I will be working on my website and 2.) I will definately be wanting to use some of my creations for my own site instead of uploading everything here. This also means that i neeeed to get my butt into gear and learn recoloring of CC meshes..LOL...and also learn how to make clothing. Like I have mentioned before.. i am usually so tired at night from my day job that i just stick to the easy stuff ( stuff I already know how to do) and I dont end up learning anything new ... ( it's difficult to learn new stuff at my age as it is .. let alone when i am dog tired!)

Okay my peeps.. so i will keep everyone posted on my little websites progress. It will most likely be MFGSims2stuff OR plain ole MFGsims. ( the latter being easy to remember AND type!!) I will make sure to blog the web address on here AND put it in plainview in the ABOUT ME section of my TSR minipage

Now .. my hubby really needs to get home ( he is at the dog park) Hurry up already Pauly! LOL

Oh .. and by the way.. if any of you enjoy the style of my writing .. could you maybe send me a pm or sign my GB .. and let me know? I write the way I talk .. haha .. fast and furious ! ( except on here you cant see my animated eyebrows and hands) :)

Property Creations !

This is my first Blog entry - OMG unsure what to say...??

Well currently i am working on new Developments and i am sure some of you have seen my first attempt, known as Cherry Developments. If you have not seen them, they are currently available in the TSR Showrooms to browse at your leisure if you want to.

Thanks everyone

Cheryl

 

 

 

 

3 new curtain sets coming out tomorrow -sunday!

So glad its Saturday today! I am supposed to go clean a house today - as I was so busy I couldnt fit it in this week ( its a once a month job) Its 4 single guys and they are horrible horrible slobs ( example - 45 minutes JUST to clean the shower alone) I am dreading going quite frankly!  But ..sigh.. money is money and I am in serious need of the money! Wish i were rich! My days of cleaning peoples dirty toilets would be OVER! LOL I would just hire people to do it for me and run my business!

Okay on to a new topic cuz the work topic bums me out! LOL

I had a bunch of beddings come out today and so far it has been terrific in way of downloads! So for anyone who has downloaded some of them I want you to know that the matching curtains for the majority of them come out tommorrow. I was quite happy with the way they all turned out and they all look great in the game!

So happy Simming and i will write more later!
