Comments, Comments, Comments...

I want to apologize to anyone who has left a comment for me and has not had a response. I have gotten waaaaaaaaayyyyy behind on them. I really do appreciate the wonderful comments you all leave for me! I am trying to catch up on all those! There are so many it's almost overwhelming!!! So if you get a comment from me on something you downloaded months and months ago you'll know what's up!

Just in case I miss anyone...Thank you so much for downloading and using my creations in your game, I really appreciate it!

One Million Downloads!!!!

Oh, wow. One million downloads. I've only been recoloring a year (alomst to the day!!), and already, I'm at one million!! Gotta sit down, here. lol. I owe it all to you guys. You continue to like my work enough to download, and I hope you all have enjoyed it!! I will continue to try to create beautiful things for you all. I thank you all very much for getting me to this number. Thanks again, all of you!!!

Manor House Release Info

I'm preparing to release the first of the Manor House sets. I know that many have been eagerly anticipating this date, and it's finally here!

Some things to know:
1. Most of the MH sets will be released in parts due to the large number of pieces and various recolors (the Washroom actually has 40 mesh and recolor files!) I apologize, but I'm not going to spend 6 hours uploading 40-60 pieces at a time, so each set will be broken up into at least 2 or 3 parts.

The Washroom will be uploaded as follows:
Part I: Plumbing fixtures (toilet, bidet, sink, tub) + recolors.
Part II: Everything else + recolors


2. The release of these sets will be s-l-o-w. Only the Garden and Washroom sets are completely, 100% finished. The other sets still have pieces that need to be tweaked and some pieces that need to be scrapped and/or redone completely. And there is at least one MH set that I haven't even started on yet =/


3. EVERYTHING in the Manor House Collection is high-poly. The ornate look I was going for can't really be faked with texture mapping--it demands polygons. Sorry to those with slow computers =[

To My Fans - Update

Surgery is no longer scheduled for tomorrow, it's been moved to July 3rd. I've been hurting pretty bad lately, so creating and writing has come to a stop for the time being.

I do hope all of you understand and accept my apologies.

Summer Break

Due to my kids having summer break right now I just wanted those who check in frequently to know that creations may be a little slow for a while. I will do what I can to update often so please be patient. Thanks to all who appreciate my work!

A Recommended Download

The Vanity Fair Sewing Room is now published and to add that special "finishing touch" I recommend, Jsf Designs Cashcraft Vanity Fair Reds walls. Judi and I collaborated on the wall treatment colors. I love Judi's walls and they bring elegances to any room set.

Judi's Vanity Fair Reds really sets off the set and they look FABULOUS in game! Thanks Judi, for sharing your wonderful creations and for making the Vanity Fair Sewing collection extra special.

jsf Designs Cashcraft VanityFair Reds here,

Thanks,

About Me

Hi to everyone! My name is Anna and first I'd like to welcome all who visit my minisite and thanks to everyone who downloads my stuff. I love to create clothes and I hope you will find something that you like here or on my own website: www.annamariasims2.com where you will find more clothes if you like it. Enjoy and thank you for your support!

Upcoming sets- tc92

TC92 was a *GREAT* inspiration, and I'm *still* working on furniture recolors. But the good news for everyone else is that there are *five* beddings and a set of mixed-media floors which will post on the 19th.

The beautiful maple railings in the two wallsets are matched perfectly in the floors, and an assortment of both 1x repeat and 2x repeat tiles will allow individuals a great deal of versatility. By using the dark leather texture among the maple, it is very easy to create 'area rug' effects', or simply beautiful flooring no matter how large or small the space.

Bedding! I have a particular love of downloading bedding, because I'm so particular about which beds I use in the game. Created with the fabric textures from the challenge, the bedding effects range from minimalist and masculine to a very warm, feminine coverlet.


I'd love feedback about these items (or any of my other creations). -DiY.

Summer Freebies

I'm still missing the time to update the blog, but I'm updating the freebies, for all of you who can't afford a sub.
The free stuff for the next two months will be as follows:

From June, 18 to July, 16 the free sets will be:
Enzo Dining Room
Enzo Dining Room - REC2
Enzo Dining Room - REC4
This dining room hasn't been all that popular, but it's got a shelving unit with a lot of space to put clutter, that has been very appreciated, and it's perfect for modern houses. As usual, it's a piece of modern italian style.

From July, 16 to August, 13 the free sets will be:
The Spike Light - Outdoor Lamps
Preventek Tri-Luminlight Outdoor Lamps
The Sentry - Set
These Maxis-matching lamps have been quite popular, and the fences set was one of my "best sellers", when it was first published. Hope you like to see it free again.

I'm also setting free forever some of my oldest sets, but you'll have to check in my minisite, because it would be a long list to put here. Enjoy!
