Old Fashioned Community lots

Hello Everyone! I'm building a series of old fashioned community lots and someone suggested I blog about them so I can share my ideas and get input from others before I publish them. They are probably going to be more Victorian in style, but will work for many different historical periods including Georgian, Regency, and Edwardian. Sims will be able to visit the lots and I will be using the custom rabbit hole rugs made by cazarupt so the buildings will have all the same options as the EA community buildings. I'm building the lots on the little island in Riverview, so they will be pretty small. My first lot is a book store and lady’s shop. The lady’s shop is just for fun since sims can’t actually buy things there. I put a dance studio on the top floor so sims can go there and dance. LOL I'm hoping there will be more options for community lots when Ambitions comes out. We'll see! The bookstore has a lot of little areas for reading and I put an art studio on the top floor. The second lot will be for the business and journalism careers. Sims can still visit the lot, but it will be full of desks basically! I posted a couple of screen shots. Let me know what you think! Thanks! Missy

Sims 3 creations ... Going well too

Thank you all for also downloading my first few Sims 3 creations :o)  You have all surprised me with your desire to place my creations in your game.  Please keep downloading them ;o)  Thanks again!

New Sets from The Sims 3 store out today.

New set available for the Sims3. Looks as there will be two different sets. One for the US and one for the UK. Found this while at SnootySims and Simsprograms. The UK set was free and the US one is not up for download yet. The sets are called "The Sims 3 Renault/Toyota Electric Vehicle Pack and EV/Eco Set" I was able to download the UK set when I logged into my account although I live in the US.  The UK link is http://gb.store.thesims3.com/renault.html.

EA/Dr Pepper Points

Just got my first Points code for the EA/Dr. Pepper give-a-way. I downloaded the Lips of Love Seat. Looks like I have 9 more items to download to get the complete set. Now, I just need 9 more codes....

Writer's Block Sucks!

Trying to finish off the very last chapter of 'Escape from Paradise' but have hit a bit of a block with it. I remember reading somewhere that 'writer's block doesn't exist, it's merely the inability to make decisions' but I tell you there are no decisions that can be made, hence why I've gotten stuck. So if anyone has ANY ideas at all for that story I BEG you to let me know, I really have no idea where to go with it.

As for my other story 'Good Vs. Evil' I know exactly where it's going thanks to a weird dream I had about it. It's going to be EXTRA long, and i'm thinking about making adding more to the story after I've finished it. Just like short stories with Dan and Henry, you know the bad guy plots something the good guy foils the plans and the world is saved, short stories like that. Let me know what you think.

I've also got my Tomb Raider story that I should really publish soon. The whole first 4 chapters are sitting on tsr, waiting to be submitted. I just want to finish and publish my current stories before I add more.

Oh i'm also thinking of writing up a legacy. I've been playing a legacy family at the moment, with Dastan as my main and favourite character. He's awsum! It's so fun when you play with just one sim for a while, you grow quite attached to them. Although I do find that it's not always a good thing. Because I start to think oh, he's getting old, he's been working on his career for a while now I think it's time he settled down and had a family. Then I try to find him a wife, and he meets some pretty girls, but once he starts dating them and the relationship gets high enough for him to propose I find the girl starting to get annoying, so he breaks up with her. He's gone through a lot of girlfriends. He had a baby with one of them, because of a hack I installed and I didn't realise she was pregnant. I let her have the baby though, because well, there wasn't really much of a choice. After the baby she became less annoying but I didn't want her to marry Dastan, and I don't think he wanted to marry her. They didn't have very high chemistry and whenever he kissed her or hugged her, he would screw up his face. Does that happen to anybody else?? I did find Dastan a wife however, I uploaded a snapshot of her. But it was really cute, he really liked her and she wasn't annoying. He kept making goo goo eyes at her, and he kept doing that swoon thing with a thought bubble of her above his head. He didn't do that with any of his previous girlfriends. Oh yeah, I've totally gone off track. I think I'll make it into a tsr story, although I've kind of said all the main plot elements. Nonetheless I think I will eventually. After all these other stories are finished.

I think I've got far too many stories ideas, I've got the two i'm actually writing at the moment (Escape from Paradise and Good Vs. Evil) I've got the story that's already written I just have to take snapshots for (Tomb Raider) and there's the legacy story I want to write about Dastan. Also an alien military conspiracy style story that I've started to write. Not to mention a post-apocolyptic story I'm thinking about starting and another about a guy on a day a disaster takes place and everytime the disaster happens the day restarts itself, so at the start of the day he knows what's going to happen and he keeps trying to save the world but every time it ends with it's destruction and he goes back to the start of that day again and tries to convice people what's going to happen but nobody will listen to him. I got the idea from COD, because I was playing it and I got ambushed and I had to get to the landing zone, but no matter what way I tried to head I kept dying then I would get respawned back at the start. So tell me what you think about my restarting day disarster idea, if it sounds worth making.

$16,500 simoleans and starter houses....

Why oh why did EA have the bright idea to make it even harder to start out in Sims 3?? Since when did inflation go down?? (ok, forget the global financial crisis... when else... lol).

I've been hating EA starter lots since I got the sims3 I mean just because my simmies are poor, doesn't mean they have to live in a place style left behind right?.... Wrong!... It seems we now only have 16,500 measly little simoleans to buy our first house with and it's driving me mad!... Try building anything worth living in for 16,500, I mean first of all, unless you want to live in that horrible new estate up the hill in Sunset Valley, a block of land is going to set you back about $2,700... forget foundations... I know they say they're only worth 4 dollars a square but... I've been keeping a close watch on the simoleans and the black market in my game is setting me back $44 a square!!... WTH?? Even the cheapest kitchen with no overhead cupboards, diswasher or trash compactor, island will set you back about $1600. Floorcoverings and paint have had a price hike with the cheapest being $4 a square instead of the good old sims 2 day's when a decent carpet would only set you back $1! The most basic of human rights in any civilised society.. a toilet!... will cost you a cool $270. Want a shower?... Well, be prepared to ante up $425 smack-a-roos! Ridiculous!

I guess my plan to revamp starter housing has failed miserably.... but I'll keep trying... I guess it's back to the drawing board for me! :)

Back Alley Art Preview

Working on some graffiti wall art now. This one is three tiles wide but only uses one. I did this so that if you want to put something over it, like a wall light or other pictures, you can.

I knew my collection of MCR gig posters would come in handy one day *lol* And because I can never work on just one thing at a time, I am also working on a Multiple Ring set. These still need a lot of adjustments still, multipliers, etc.

I have also been looking at the WA necklace and have figured out how that works. There's one little bug in the workshop that needs fixing, but once that's done I will work on converting the necklaces I have already released so that they can be worn by every body type *yay*

I'm back!

Okay, just wanted everyone to know I'm back.  The last part of Half empty or half full is up, and I'll soon be starting stowaway soulpeace and beta testing.
