I can has ProMz?
...few years back I was designing a friend's gown...hours back, my moderator was handing out a letter, notifying our own upcoming prom...minutes ago, I was designing my own. oh, and by the way, I'm going to turn 16 in about 30 minutes I think, lol. Boy, does time fly.
...yep, you read right folks. after years of designing for others, you'll see the infamous kanzenatsume in her own design dress - feckin' finally. and there's a little secret to this dress - it's not a dress! But hell, it looks like one. A very classy victorian french....pff! giving too much details~! You'll see soon enough my lovelies.
...IF. If I reach ultimate satisfaction that is. Heh, you know me. What doesn't please me, goes straight into the trash.

...ASIDE from the prom hooplah, I'll be making a BELFRAN doujinshi, completely based on MeLoNiSM / MeLoNnAiSE's ever glorious fanfic "His Royal Highness Owns a Frog" { http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5446208/1/His_Royal_Highness_Owns_a_Frog }. I command you all to read it.
...I've also been cosplaying (but not posting the photos here lol, sorry) a lot lately since I've finally got a group. You can find our photos at our site: { http://vongolafamiglia.webs.com/apps/photos/ }

...Wells, that's it. You all better watch out for that dress design I mentioned. I need all your oppinions, from comments, critiques, color suggestions - all that jazz.
...oh, did I mention that I have to graduate in 3 months? I didn't? Well now I did. And I'm both excited and terrified. I mean seriously, 2 HS years in 3 months?! WTH am I, a god?! lol...probably hahaha
I LOVE YOU ...*censored*

Evilness of Dr. Pepper...
As most are well aware, there is a new promotion envolving Dr. Pepper and EA. There is one particular thing that I really, REALLY, want:

Holy! That is an awesome little digital job! A cross between a 1956 Chevy Bel Air, a 1955-6 Ford Victoria, and a 57-58 Plymouth.
When it is at all possible, I try and get whatever promotional preorder that gives me a spiffy new vehicle to tool around in. Ugh! I'm going to have to start drinking more Dr. Pepper D:.

What's New!!!
I just finished the preview shots for my Nautical Boy's Bedroom set. Jsf Designs (Judi) created a set of beautiful walls and floors for the set and they are the perfect finishing
touch! Judi, thank-you so much for your generosity, I really
appreciate it!
I plan to release the set on Jan. 10th, and I have added Judi's fantastic floors and walls to the set's collection folder.
Here are a few preview pics of the Sims 2 Nautical Boy's Bedroom set...



Vanity Fair News
I'm
having a ball creating for Sims 3! It still takes me more time to
create for Sims 3 then it does for Sims 2. Although when I create for Sims 3, I spend a lot of
time testing and trying out new stuff, every new creation is a learning
experience. After I create new content for the game, I can't wait to
see what it looks like in game. I love to play around with all the
different recolor options.
I’m beginning to think "outside the box" and to consider unique news
ways to texture and recolor an object. I think Sims 3 is going to
change the way I create!
Yesterday, I created a vintage mirror and dresser for the Vanity Fair
collection. The dresser started out with only 1 re-colorable part
(wood) and an overlay (the gold accent bits). In game I accidentally
dragged the textures from the curtains and placed them on my dresser. I
realized a floral texture looked pretty good on the dresser.
So, I decided to add a total of 3 re-colorable parts to the dresser
with the overlay. So all of us wacky creative artist types can have
more flexibility in decorating and we can experiment with textures and
colors to create many unique styles in furnishings.
Here are a couple of pictures--mirror and dresser. Should I add the
blue floral dresser to the in game catalog options? Let me know
what you think...
Happy New Year!

100,000 Downloads
Victory is mine. Its been a fast year of 2009. My first "dodgy" upload was 28 April 2009. I managed to turn that into 118 creations and over 100,000 downloads. I feel quite proud and dissappointed that I havent been able to creat as often as I like.
My soul goal the past few months was to Actually play the Sims2 game. I recently tried to create some posters and paintings, but I am completely clueless who to do them, dont worry I have successfully done it, but I wanted to make my own collection. Not just a recolour to another painting/poster - if you get what i mean.
So if anyone knows how to do this, I would greatly appreciate the help!! Thank you.
If you have noticed on my creations, in the info, I am now classifying whether the creation is a "Caitlin Creation" or a "Jessica Creation" just so we can make fun of which one is getting less downloads... hehe, Sister love!!
My sister (Jessica) has been Slack at creating as well, seems the new partner of hers is taking her on a lovely holiday, while my Fiance is spending our holiday time - painting our house... =(
Anyway, love all your support and keep downloading and i will try and keep up with the uploading!!
Thanks
