Mesh Mush
...well, I have completed my first mesh. But, don't expect an upload any time soon...I want to make sure it's decent quality before I decide to share it with all of you. Either way, for all those that have been helping me with my multitude of questions BlackGarden, Dgandy, and others...thanks so much. You guys are making it happen...I've been Bookmarked?! - Graduation!!
Hello there fellow builders/dreamers/simmers! I just wanted to take a moment to send out a special thank you to those of you who have been so kind as to bookmark me as an artist. I cannot see your names...it doesn't show me who does this...so I can't thank you personally. However, it doesn't change the fact that every time I see that someone has done this it means that they really like something I have created.I have only recently started uploading to TSR. It is the ONLY site I have ever uploaded anything to, and (as far as I can see) the only one I probably ever will. I didn't think my homes would be good enough to share with anyone, but my eldest son bopped me upside the head and told me to just try it and see. So when someone bookmarks me as an artist I grow a little more confident...a little more sure that people really do like my homes...and I cannot even begin to tell you just how incredible that feels to me. :D So, thank you! Thank you each and every one of you who has bookmarked me, or will do so in the future. You sure make this old builder feel welcome here! (((Hugs!)))
A VERY grateful,
Illiana
Graduation Day!!!!
On a personal note - My eldest son Austin graduated from high school today! *Sniffle* A BIG part of me is so beyond proud of the young man he has become that I could just burst!!! Yet, there is another part of me that longs for the days he would climb up on my lap and want me to read him a story. I just keep asking myself, "Where did the time go?!" Congratulations, my son!!!! I wish you success and happiness as you venture into a new world! :D
Love -
Mom

Uploaded Chapter 26
Yes, only a few days instead of months ... amazing. Look for it soon.Very Busy
Haven't been around much, got sick with the flu and allergies again... This week will be very hectic for me and hubby's workplace so I won't be around much online again. We also have to attend to our new house, on its finishing touches already. We're excited to move in and decorate. Aside from that, there's nothing much to tell. I just missed playing with my Simmies but not much time anymore. As always, thanks for stopping by everyone. I really appreciate it. :)If any case that I don't upload my screencaps here, feel free to visit my Sims 2 Flickr:

OMG!!! Say WCIF ?!?! ...
Because of the lots of questions about my sources, i've made a list with the costum content i've used.this black/blond hair is from vintage d, but it's not online any more, maybe they'll upload it again, i dunno.
EDIT SophieQ told me that the hair is posted in the vintage forum under REQUESTS
the other hairs i've used are from rosesims, xmsims, nouki
or from siluetta or ulkrhsn (both @TSR)
the make up is made by heleane and icedmango
or made by me but unpublished.
I've no idea where the skintone is from, i think from MTS2, but i dunno the artist. It must be an old one, cause I had it in my game from the early beginning.
Arches - usual apologies and stuff...
The arches are very nearly ready at last! As usual, my previous blog entry is the cyclonesue-classic example of over-promising and under-delivering. Anyway, just the narrowest 1-tile arch to sort out (it's a tad too wide for the tile still), and then I'm ready to upload! Anyway, I'm very sorry about the delay and a huge thank-you for the fabulous comments you've left!
More testing!

a bit more about the bear
I'm the bear........TSR knows me as hiedibear75. I've got 4 wonderful kids.......I see them as often as I can, which is never often enough. I'm a kid at heart; I like cartoons (but NOT all toons....only some). I like crude stuff like South Park, and Crank Yankers was a really funny show. I'm crude sometimes but sweet. I like cutsie stuff like fairies, unicorns, Hello Kitty and I of course love just about anything Disney. I'm into music ALL kinds; Tim McGraw, to Slipknot, Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson, then turn around & listen to Sean Paul, Shakira, you name it I'll listen to it......well almost......I do have taste ya know. My favorite color in the world is pink! I like skulls though......and most of that tends to be black & red.....but that's AOK with me. I love all animals but my absolute favs are dolphins, cats, dogs, horses, and of course bears and butterflies. I've collected teddy bears since I was a kid and I've still got some of them.....some are more then 20yrs old now. I've always been kinda cuddly so I guess bear fits me. My best-friend Mike helps take care of me. He started calling me butterfly because I'm "fragile and have to be picked up and handled very delicately.....just like a butterfly". I Sim to keep my sanity. Staying home all the time with "nothing but free time" only sounds good; trust me, it's got some big drawbacks. I like movies; mainly comedy, horror fan(but not ghosts.....I do believe in spooks.....not vampires or zombies). I can't believe I didn't put this in earlier.....I L-O-V-E nature! <3 I'm anti-pollution and big on ecology. If we don't take care of Mother Earth she'll stop taking care of us......and when that happens like all the animal species we have caused to go extinct.....we will be too.Busy Building
Just thought I would drop a note to say that I am around and building. Because I am working on several lots at once, I haven't uploaded anything in the past couple of weeks. But I should have several lots ready to go at the end of May or in early June.Beach House Bedroom Set
New bedroom set released on Sunday 18th May :) Base game compatible apart from the Vanity Table which requires the University EP. Recolours are included with the set.
