Upcoming work

Hi there and a very good day to all you fellow (and fellowesses..if there is such a word...if there is'nt there ought to be..) Simmers out there on this beautiful planet earth!...

Just a line to let you guys..and guyesses..(word to self...''STOP BEING AN ANNOYING LITTLE ''&%*"%&*&*%'' )..I really have got to get this keyboard looked at.

Where was I ?...oh yes.. just a line to say that my next project is to give you some more pieces of art from the very talented 'Ashley David'...The more astute and tasteful of you out there who have already perused my site in the past (author now gives a 'devil may care toss of his locks..well he would have, if he had any to toss) will have noticed that this will be the second offering from this particular artist. This is because of the wonderful response and plentiful downloads accrued from the first set that I made.

I was myself surprised at the response but then thinking about it more carefuly, realise that you lot are a sophisticated lot and simply adore good taste..dont you?? (Must be the case 'cos you are looking at my blog right now!)...OK...got to go and collect my 'Getting to be a right little DIVA certificate'..so see you soon my lovelies..have a nice day!

         'I'm Watching you!'         

 Please note The above picture will not be available for download, although I might be persuaded with an extremely generous offer...everyone has a price!

(just kidding folks)

Sneak Peak Time Again and 'Ambitions'!

Thought I'd better get a few paintings sets ready before I got 'Ambitions' and got addicted to trying out all the new stuff that involves!  Loving it so far - played a firefighter and an inventor last night/this morning (didn't get to bed til 5am - ooops!!).

My firefighter reached the top of the career and got his very own 'Woo Woo 4000' (that's a fire engine btw!!), and my inventor had just created her first 'Monster' (that's a SimBot!) when I finally had to give in and go to bed!  Not sure if it's just me, but there seems to be more humour in this expansion pack, which I like. Some are just little things like new pie-menu options, while others are more visual - for example, my firefighter explored one of the tunnels made by the mining machine and came back as a caveman - new outfit, new hairdo, but still wearing his trainers!  Anyway, I won't spoil it for everyone (unless you want me to of course!!).

So, on to the new paintings.  I've managed to get quite a few sets done and ready for upload - they just need testing in-game, but I don't foresee any problems. So my first offering is a set of two really cute ballerina bears:

Followed by three cheeky kids:

Two for the gardeners:

A set of four for those budding fashion designers:

Destinations:

Something a little fruity:

Four beautiful songbirds:

Two elegant still-life paintings:

Two still-life vases:

Beautiful vases and dried flowers:

Plus a few more surprises to come!  ;)

Enjoy! 

Updating

Ciao, just wanna tell you that I will update my meshes in the Illusion and Dialog set! They will have new uv maps so the texture won´t be blurred or streched anymore! Horray! I also update the Filip Wallpanel which had a incorrect multiplier..

Time to say

Hi, Today, I thought I should really catch up on thanking people for all the support and thanks that I am given on here.

I have just finished, it took me nearly 2 hours! That will teach me, to keep on top of thanking you all in the future :D

Thank you so much for your very kind comments! I am so pleased that so many of you like my creations. I really do appreciate the time that is taken to leave me feedback. This really encourages me to carry on creating for you all.

Hugs

Please feel free to add me on Facebook, via my Facebook tab on my profile :D

I Googled

I decided to Google "Sims 3 sims are ugly" & I came up with page after page of other people who have the same opinion.  I think maybe there are people who play Sims 3 but do NOT like the way their Sims look as well as a few people who are sticking with TS2 mainly because they do NOT like how TS3 Sims look.  My room-mate plays TS3 & some of my friends now play TS3 & nolonger play TS2.  I wanted to see if I'm the only "crazy" person or if I wasn't as crazy as my TS3 friends think I am......I'M NOT!  So I guess I'll just sit here being jealous of the TS3 players cuz they're getting new stuff to do with their Sims & cuz most of the creations are for TS3.  But I really can't see spending money on games for UGLY Sims, nor can I see having the same "aww" when they have babies.........OK so they'll be just as ugly as Mom & Dad.....poor things, & I'd also loose out on one of my biggest loves.......BUILDING (my TS3 friends have LESS Sims & only tend to focus on a few families......unlike with TS2 where we routinely have dozens of Sim families we play with).  SO......if I sit here by myself or with a throng of other people who feel the same as I do........I'm not going to "make myself" like something........I'll just keep playing what I TRULY LOVE in the 1st place.

New Link for Castle World

Hi!

Because there were lots of issues with downloading the castle world, you can now download it here as well: http://www.mediafire.com/file/zylchncwviz Please let me know if it's not working either.

Here I sit...

without my game. I left the disc at my boyfriend's house, and I'm pissed.

I guess I'll write an update for my legacy since I have nothing better to do.

I'm in my 6th generation. Maureen passed on from old age and left her young adult daughter as the current last surviving member of the legacy.

I've been trying to get her to hook up with a male sim, but since the most recent patch the "romantic" social option has gone away and is unavailable. I really don't want to have to reinstall. I also have excessive amounts of CC, and I don't know how to reinstall without losing all of it. I guess I could move it to the desktop.

I can't wait for my birthday. Hopefully, I will get Ambitions. I'll be turning 19 years old on July 20th.

My boyfriend bought and downloaded the sims 3 from EA, and it loads so much faster than it does from a disc. It's not just that his computer is faster than mine, because it isn't. Loading the selected game and family takes up to five min. for me, his takes about two. I'm wondering it I downloaded Ambitions from EA if I wouldn't have to use a disc anymore, and then if it would load faster. If you know, I would appreciate a comment or something.

I may go to a party tonight. It's my friend's 25thn birthday. I want to go, but I work at noon tomorrow, so I cant stay late, and I can't have too much fun. haha. I only go to partys if my boyfriend will go with me, so I'm gonna try to convince him.

I'm getting off topic, and starting to ramble. I think I'll go wander the forums aimlessly.

Im Back!!!

Hiya all!!! Im back I hope you all had a great week while I was away!! I have now caught up with everyone who left a comment for me!!! I will be posting some new paintings soon...TC Lorraine
