And today's borked object IS.... (cue fanfare)
The tree house door (master mesh)!Thanks to JRon who gave me a prodding with the pointy end of one of the branches, it seems that, as usual, I had managed to add a nice blue texture to the game icons of all the doors and windows that take their colours from this master file.
I have now got rid of the blue texture. Simply redownload the door from here...
FIXED: Tree House Master Door
You might need to refresh the icons for the tree doors and windows in your game catalog. If so, hold down the Ctrl key on your keyboard, and click the right mouse button on each icon - including the recolour choices).
Todays Blog Entry is about Nothing!
Yeah thats right... nothing... What has Mistress been doing in Sims style for the last few weeks you may ask? nothing. What has Mistress managed to create? nothing. When old Mistress Hubbard went to her cupboard, what was there? nothing.Indeed the theme to this entry is - nothing - Well.. not exactly nothing, merely bits of somethings that look like im doing nothing becuase I have several projects on the go but i have finished none of them. Does anyone else get these little Hiatuses in creativity or does my brain matter really suck that much?!
Ive been doing a recolour of one of my fave FA's sets, and its been lurking on my hard drive for over a week now because stupid real life dictates that Mistress does not have time to spend on such frivulous activities such as this thing termed "taking a break." Noooo!! I come home from work, later and later each week, I cook, I clean I yell at the kids, and whine at him indoors for not doing XYZ or for doing XYZ but not how I wanted... you know how it is, one had to keep him indoors in check!! Sorry fella's, but Mistress cannot be Mistress without ensuring that him indoors knows whats what... indeed!
I also thought of a great maxis recolour, but only got so far as firing up SimPe, and realised it was already 11:30pm, so shut it back down again...
I am sure though that this temporary "brain fart" will not last, I will kick into gear once more, I guess its better than trying to rush something out that my heart really isnt into... And you know what? ONE of the ideas Ive got hatched isnt at all dark and gothic.. now what do you think to that then!?!
Next week on The Blog: Did Mistress finish any of the ongoing projects? NOT dark and Gothic?!? has Mistress lost it completely?! Did snuffles really bite bob? and who the heck is Snuffles??

Revising old lots
I am currently in the process of revising some old lots that had minor defaults to them, due to some cheats used to build them. Mainly some of my mediterranean villas. The list is: Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Palm Beach & Balmoral Beach. I'm looking to get all this caught up so I can finish some of my new exciting releases coming soon...Bannoch Village: Joliffe Cottage
This is a big one, no dinkie cottage here! Very spacious, 4 bedrooms + 2 bathrooms. Very nice for a large family. Roof is not as 'pointy' as other Bannoch Village cottages because of the way the roof lies.
And thank you to all who took my 'Expansion Pack' Survey! I was trying to decide if I should install the Seasons EP. I have decided not to (at least for now). I don't know about anybody else, but I am finding it harder and harder to download other people's lots ... so many EP's are sometimes needed. Since I build lots for TSR ... I thought I would kept my houses simple and use only OFB/UNI/NL.
And one last thingy ... I use Kate's (Parsimonious) 'Eponymous Garden' plants often in my lots. Recently she updated all her plants. They are the same plants but more compact, smaller and look marvelous. If you have her old Eponymous files ... you might consider redownloading her newer version and deleting the old ones.
New Current Projects!!
Hello,Since I'm getting very close to 60,000 downloads here at TSR, I've decided to start uploading some more .. as a thank you to anyone and everyone who has contributed to Benny Boy by downloading my stuff. :)
So ... on that note, I'm going to announce my next project, or, projectS. LoL...
I'm working on a joint project between these 2 sets by the select artists, Shoukeir:
1. Magali
2. Extensia Dining
Both sets will be the same recolors, to match as a full set. They should work perfect in your modern homes, or if you just want modern style in a traditional home, it will work for that as well.
Preview pictures of the set objects will be posted in this forum thread. Look for it soon, and thank you all for your support!

Screaming Loudly
Well, I got a newsletter from Pimp My Sims and went to their site to see their new layout which is very nice. However, they've removed Solander's first kitchen. You can find it on TSR by going to Retired Artists and SolanderCGN. But that means that all the links to my 20 "PMS" Kitchens are no longer valid because the kitchen isn't there. So I will try over the next few weeks to correct all 380 files. I did about 4 or 5 sets all the way through before exhaustion took over. I'll do it a bit at a time so I don't get this tired again.I would like to ask that if you see a problem with one of my files, that you please let me know. While I was changing links I came across one of the oven hoods that had a picture of a microwave on it. I changed it, of course. But these sets have been around quite a while, and it was never mentioned. Of course it could be that everyone is downloading the entire set, in which case it probably wouldn't be seen. Regardless, I'm human, so if you catch me being that, please let me know and I'll fix my errors when possible.
Summer 2007
The summer is upcoming and to be in form I must make some diet and of gymnastics :(
In the meantime I have created a small set of bikini for the sea.
Glass Block set
This new set has taken me months (literally) to make! I started it in November 2006, and finished it last weekend, so something in the order of six months then. Admittedly, a lot of Real Life pushed its way into that period, but six months!!! Anyway, I'm glad it's finished.
