Retiring
I have loved the time I've spent as a Select Artist here on TSR, but now it's time for me to step aside and let some up and coming talented artist take my place. I have found myself in a position where I must choose between the priorities in my life. First off, I recently got a new job. It's a GREAT job, but my office is now a windowless cubicle and I spend much more time in front of the computer than I did before. To come home and then spend more time in front of the computer is a little more than I can bear. Summer is coming and the sun, fresh air, and bike trails beckon. I'm also a single mom and every moment I spend in front of the computer takes away from the time I spend with my son. That's a choice that I'm no longer willing to live with. Lastly, a friend of mine is nearing the end of her life, dying from cancer. We are now witnessing her last days on this earth. I have come face to face with what is really important in this life....family, friends, home, faith, among others. Upon examination of my own life and my priorities, I find that a computer game doesn't really come near the top of the list. While I get a great deal of satisfaction out of the things I create and the fact that other people like them, it doesn't compare to the beauty of the smile on my son's face, or the sound of his laughter when we're having quiet conversations about whatever makes us happy.I may still submit occasionally, when the inspiration strikes me and I have the time. I want to thank everyone who has downloaded my creations and give me such positive feedback and encouragement. This would never have been as much fun without you.
See ya!
FORGIVE ME SIMMERS...FOR I HAVE SINNED
It is with deepest apologizes that I type before you and admit that I have made a HUGE mistake.Up until now, I have been creating a few items all wrong. I have been under the impression that creating clothing using artist's alphas were OK. as long as I didn't use their textures in the same creation.
Boy was I wrong.
It wasn't until Tantra kindly took time out to teach me; and to help me understand the differences between alpha, base textures and bumpmaps; and that they ALL contain ownership. Not just the texture.
In light of this, I'm going on a creating hiatus for now. Just until I can get the rules and the 'proper' way to create down to an art.
For those that I have offended, I'm terribly apologetic & I hope that you can find it in your heart to forgive my misunderstandings.
Now that I, 'literally', know right from wrong; I guarantee you that it will not happen again.
I would like to take this time to THANK Tantra for her knowledge, patience, and kindness.
Whoever said knowledge isn't power? XD
PC fixed

James is two months old already
Doesn't time fly! Well, here for all those of you (hello Shirley) who asked for a new picture, is James at two months old.He now weighs 10lbs 2oz and has had his first lot of injections to protect against various diseases like tetnus and diptheria.
He's generally a happy chappy and has started smiling and gurgling away to himself. At times he sounds like a Sim.
