Hello everyone!

Hello!
I finally got my own minisite.I simply couldn't make up my mind, 20000 kudos are a lot but. they are worth the effort :)

I'm back!

As some of you may have noticed, I took a bit of time away from submitting creations. I needed to go down to London for a research trip, spending my time in the British Library and National Archives (jealous, I know, haha) and it left me little to no downtime to design :( I am, however, back with a vengeance! Well, not quite, but I do have some new wallpapers that will be posted tomorrow. It's a start. I have a number of cool, funky wallpapers useful for different rooms of the house. I am aware that my floors, particularly my carpets, are quite popular, so there will be a number of those thrown into the mix as well. The carpets take a bit longer to design, so be a little more patient for those. While we're discussing future plans, I must warn there will be another approximately month-long hiatus in late Sept.-early Oct. I'll be returning home (Chicago) for a short time then coming back here to prepare for my second review (eek!).

Pending submissions ended!

Hurray! TSR staff gave my creations the second chance and now they are approved and to be released on Aug 26. Yay! Now my will to create is back, because it was missing because of disappointment when I opened a page and each time I saw that no creations are being approved! Now I can create more and more!

Thank you, TSR staff, you're great!

Take care,

Hannah

The map of my Lots Series

Hello! Sims fan! Here is the spezial map of my Lots Series. According to the map would my lots be fine arranged. You see, I've choosed the first neighborhood of the games (So, each one have this nice neighborhood, too ;)). Then I've deleted the former lots in this hood. Because I want to build a whole new city, what you've seen, I've published some of them already. I've only EP Pets now. So the most lots, which I've published need the Pets perhaps or they need only the base game. Here is the map: LS1: Old Bridge LS2.1: Old City Centre LS2.2: The Place of Ciythall ... I wish you like my Lots Series! Artrui

Have You Seen An Elephant Fly?!!

A very quick update as it's gone 4am - yet again! Thought I'd give you a quick preview of one of my latest projects - maybe the title gave it away a little!! I decided that not only would I create a set of paintings, but also a set of matching rugs - ideal for all those kiddy rooms don't you think?! :D Night-night!

Therapy

I hate doors. Stupid, lame, annoying, all-awkward-to-align meshes with horrible diagonal versions and double doors that really don't want to be joined in the middle.

I just hate doors, okay?

There, I've talked about it - just as the Anger Management Course advised I should.

Adoorable!

Oh, ho-ho-HO - the titles get even better in the lame-stakes! Today I'm going to grace you with beautiful doors...

You see: I thought I'd capture the essence of a pretty countryside scene for a change, with wild English rose gardens, babbling brooks and little thatched cottages for my next series of build items...


HA!


Come on! Did you REALLY think I'd start getting all pretty?! No way! Far too many nice lots being uploaded of late and so I'm going to encourage an end to this farcical situation with some PROPER build items!



There are five meshes in the set (plain door, a fire escape, two windowed doors and a double door) and they all share a single set of six beautifully delicate textures as shown above. Soft rust, mellow corrosion, that sort of thing... See? I know what you REALLY like!

How can you tell??

I just uploaded some office furniture. I knew for sure that the chair was from Free Time, but the desk? It did look like the desk from Free Time, but it was also identical to IKEA design (I know this for sure, as my son has that exact desk!). Where to check for this? No pictures whatsoever in the Free Time leaflet. The EA Sims 2 site does have pictures from the IKEA stuff, and the desk was not among them. But then it says "here are SOME items from the game..." I tried to check out the page here on TSR, but it did not download completely, and besides, it only has objects from the expansion packs, not from the stuff packs. ARGGG!! I looked at desks in the downloads section and thought I found the desk I used, and it said "Free Time". OK, I settled for this. Free Time it is. Or so I thought...
After uploading, I played the game for a while. And realized that the desk MUST be from IKEA, after all...!! So I checked the IKEA leaflet, and there it was... Why, oh why didn't I start by looking there?!
A quick revision of my previews and the file names. But the idea behind the set backfired, as the chair and the desk were supposed to be from the same expansion. Now they are not. And hey! why can you not choose the IKEA stuff when reporting for expansions pack required?!
