Yee-Hah! On A Western Kick..

You are not going to believe this but I have three western stories (Sim Photo) on the go! As you can tell from my screenshots, I am going crazy! But I am also having a lot of fun!
Some of the fun is hunting for appropriate downloads to fit the story, I have found some great ones!

One of my stories takes place at a Fort, which I have built and uploaded here. I did not include the CC, but instruct as to where to download it.

I have always enjoyed the western genre, in print and in movies, and I am so gratified that Hollywood still manages to make a good one every so often. 3:10 to Yuma with Russell Crowe and Christian Bale comes to mind, better than the original.
Also saw a very good oater on Turner Classic Movies Westward the Women 1951 with Robert Taylor about him bringing 100 mail order brides back to California for some lonely ranchers, surprisingly gritty for 1951!! (sounds like a good Sim story!! LOL!)

Also thanks to the great comments for the conclusion of Van Helsing I will answer them all!

Cheers~~Have a good week!

A belated Happy New Year to everyone!

My first set of 2008 was made after I received a request to create some re-colours of Liana's gorgeous Mesh 079. I had somehow managed to overlook this mesh so thank you Zelda368 for bringing it to my attention.



There are ten sweaters in this set: two with Argyle pattern, two with a Tibetan feel and six plain. For adults and young adults.

Lakeside Cabins

I'm blown away by how great the lakeside lots in Three Lakes neighbourhood look. Even before you begin to build on them, the reflections of the landscape in the lake are just lovely. I've really enjoyed building the Lakeside Cabin Generations set (the first on of which is on the front page of my minisite). There will be at least four lots in the series - maybe five.

Here's the Lakeside Cabin - which I released a few weeks ago:



Here's the Lakeside Log Hut (which is larger than it sounds and also has a useable walkout basement):



And the Lakeside Lodge:



I will also be doing Pebbley versions of both just as I did with the first one in the set. I'll post more pics soon, too.

No More Creations!

I'm having big problems with the submission system at the moment. Basically I can't upload any sets, when I do I get a message saying the set isn't mine & then the system removes every item from that set. It is also happening when I try to edit sets that I have already uploaded. I have sent a support issue on it & am now waiting to hear back, how long that will be....well your guess is as good as mine.

So my submitting of creations has come to an end a lot earlier than I thought it would. Hopefully it'll be sorted before my computer gets packed away for the Oman, if not then you won't see any submissions from me until the end of March.

So for the one person that's eagerly awaiting the release of all my Pyjama & Hat sets I'm afraid you're gonna be in for a long wait. I managed to upload the first set & that is released on the 12th Jan, I don't know when I will be able to put the rest up, which really disappoints me as I've spent a long time on them all & can't share them with you.

All I can say is watch this space.

Thank you for your comments

Hi everyone, I know I have been not around much but my kids are on summer holidays here is South Africa and they are keeping me rather busy.

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who has left a comment on one of my creations, I appreciate each and everyone of them and will get around to thanking you all individually as soon as the kiddies are back at school and I have some time for myself again :-)

Till then let me just say thank you and I hope you have had a great start to the new year.

!!!!POLL TIME!!!!

I'm having a bout of insomnia, so I thought I'd make a poll.

Please vote on how you'd like me to complete the MH Collection sets.

Currently, all that needs to be done of the remaining sets is for them to be converted for the game (sounds easier than it is).

Alternatively, I have a list of sets I want to complete, including a window companion set to the Pedimentary Doors collection and a Pottery Barn-esque coffee themed kitchen set (trust me, it looks better in my head than it sounds on paper!)

I could go either way really, I'd just like for others to weigh in. =]

Console madness!

Ok so you might notice in my "upcoming" bit down the left there's a NES. But there's more to come! Here's a teaser of my next release... a slightly more recent console from Nintendo!



As you can see it's still early days, and I'm still using a temporary texture for it. Also, the controllers are all I've made so far! They sit next to the Maxis console, so I still have the GameCube itself to make. Nonetheless, watch this space!

On Holiday

I'm on holiday in England and so am not able to upload new creations and I'm going to Africa for a month all February so it won't be possible for me to come up with new stuff till March but then I will be coming up with lots of new stuff as I have a lot of ideas.

Learn something new and meet someone different.

Well OK a lot of people have figured it out (what with the avatar and my personal pix) yup I use a wheelchair. I had an accident eons ago and let's just say it left me with a few souvenirs. Here are 2 links that may be interesting to some. Traumatic Brain Injury http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traumatic_brain_injury I got hit in the head which is what caused everything else. Spines do NOT take a licking and keep on kicking.......Timex they're not. Spinal Cord Injury also known as SCI http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinal_cord_injury So in a nutshell.......I may not be able to walk or remember what I had for breakfast........but I'm still lovable and it shows cuz I've still got people who love me. :D
