Hey ♥

Firs of all, sorry for not submiting chapter 6 of Fly, you're free yet, I just went on a trip and couldn't submit it from my phone.

Second of all, thank you for all your nice comments and support, I love when you tell me I made you smile one way or another, it just gives me more reasons to continue writing.

Third and finally, I don't know if I will continue my story, since the rating (3.5) tells me you didn't like it very much, so...

More in my Tumble, here: http://prettysgi.tumblr.com/

That's all, bye ♥

Ready for the Future

Maybe some of you recognized that since my last submission some time spent by. The reason for it is simple - my interests changed. Sims 3 did not give me so much fun as in the beginning. But for all TSR users that like my creations - I am ready for the future of the Sims *yeah* Currently I am working for Sims 4 CC and I can guarantee - for the new part of the Sims you will have creations made by Vision of Fashion ^^

So thank you for all the lovely comments to my Sims 3 creations, the nice guestbooks entries and the feedback you gave to me :)

Kiss, visiona

Message in A Bottle, Resumed!

Heya guys!

 

I'm sorry I didn't get to update you about my stories. :(

I was busy working this past months and been sick because of the stress. (Ya, the job suck my life energy O_O)

I manage to finish up the contract and went back home (my ectasy) but need to recover for one week because of cold and terrible fever. -_-

Anyway, the good news is, I am re-installing the Sims 3 and downloading all CC stuffs. I had a problem with my sims before so, I am going to start from the very start. It would take a lot of patience to do so.. I hope you cheer for me. lol xD

About the novel type of Message in a Bottle, I am going to release the first 5 chapters at wattpad maybe next week. (I'll make an update here) So, if you guys wanted to read detailed Jasper and Erin, feel free to check it out. (Once released)

I already have some screenshots for the next sims chapter but some but it's still not enough to cover the entire chapter. :/

Thanks again!

-Juu

Update N8

Hello my lovely *wink* xD

I'm really slacking off with my story updates! Sorry for that >__< They will show up as soon as possible :) With Endless as priority, I'm writing both chapters. I actually only need to take the screenshots for Endless, while editing the story a bit, however, I still need to put cc back and check if my saves are still working D= .. Yes, you heard that correctly. I had uninstalled my game. Currently everything's going back! 

But first, I decided to create one Iro family member, with only Seasons installed XD... You'll see the sim soon! I hope.. 
Alright! ^^ 

Oh and you know! When I saw that the deadline for the Black and White pics were put on a later date I was like;
UUUGGHGHGHGHGHHGH.. =__=

Oh well, I guess I'll put some more up then? :P And I see many using quite some photo-edits...
I kept myself from doing heavy edits.. so hm.. I guess I'll do one like that too >3<~!

Have a nice day!

Sims Las Vegas!

Hello everyone! This is my first post here on TSR. So I recentley just came back from Vegas and while I was in Vegas I started thinking to myself, I should recreate Vegas in Sims! So here I am now back at home and I am currently making some signs and etc for the sims Vegas. I have downloaded some great content from some awesome people that I will be using in the hotels and etc. I am happy to say that once I am finished with building everything, that I will be uploading it here to TSR for yall to enjoy! All credit for the content I downloaded will be given to those who created it. I will be back here to give some updates on how everything is going :) I am not 100% sure how long this will take me. But once its complete, the time it took will be worth it all. Some of the hotels you will see are going to be the exact replica of the ones in Vegas and a few other hotels will be ones I have created myself. Until then, see yall when I am able to post some updates! -Efrain

Create A World: Spawners

I made this post in the CAW forum on this site some time back and decided to put it on my page for people who work with CAW.

 

You can place spawners in CAW from any EP that you have installed. Most (not all) of the spawners listed below are already in CAW. Other spawners you'll need to make available in CAW using a .package file before it will be listed in CAW. For help with that, check out ModTheSims' CAW forum here.

 

Finding the Spawners in CAW

 

Once in CAW, in the Metadata box, expand the Game Objects, Environment tree lists (little crosses) so that their contents are listed below them. All of the spawners are in this section. (Note: there is a section called Spawners under Game Objects, but there is utterly nothing in it). The list is alphabetical but this is almost useless unless you know what name the desired object or spawner has been given by the developers. Quickest way is to write down names on a piece of paper as you peruse CAW so you'll know how to find an object at a later time.

 

In general, spawners in this list will show up exactly as named in the following list. The number of spawns that will occur per each spawner is uncertain unless specified otherwise.

 

You must have installed the expansion pack that the spawner belongs to before you can see it in CAW. I myself do not own every EP so some of the spawners you are looking for may not be on this list.

 

Harvestable Plants

 

All Harvestable Plant spawners will show up in CAW Render Panel as a mound of dirt, but will show up correctly in the installed world in-game. These do NOT need to be placed on a lot. You can put them in any navigable place where sims can get at them to harvest. 

 

"Autosoil:<name of plant>" - plants a harvestable plant for the specified plant or tree.

 

Here is a list of all the possible grapes from France listed alphabetically as shown:

 

Avornalino Grapes

Cherimola Blan Grapes

Cranerlet Nuala Grapes

Granadilla Fran Grapes 

Meloire Grapes

Renoit Grapes

 

Other Autosoil Spawners listed alphabetically as shown:

 

Cherries

Harvestable Kelp

Plums

Pomegranates

Pomelos

 

 

Beetles

 

"Beetle Spawner - <name of beetle> (N)" - spawns beetles only of type specified. The number N is probably the number of times the beetle will spawn in that place. The "Beetle Spawner - All"  might spawn only the beetles that are from EPs that are NOT WA, but not sure about this.

 

"Beetle Spawner - <name of beetle> (N)" - spawns beetles only of type specified. The number is probably the number of times the beetle will spawn in that place.

 

"Beetle Spawner (country name) - <name of beetle>" - spawns beetles only of type specified from a specific WA country. Not sure if beetle only spawns once or multiple times.

 

Other beetle/insect spawners listed alphabetically as follows:

 

Mosquito Spawner

Spider Spawner

Termite Spawner

 

Butterfiles

 

"Butterfly Spawner - <frequency> N" - butterfly spawners that specify how long butterflies of various types will spawn in that place (High=high frequency, Low=low frequency, and so forth). The number in this case is simply ordinal, I think, and does not have to do with how many times the spawn occurs. If I want bflys spawned by frequency, I use some of all the numbers just to make sure that all possible types of bflys are represented in my world. Not sure if these are just BG bflys only, or all non-WA bflys.

 

"Butterfly Spawner - <name of butterly> (N)" - spawns butterflies only of type specified. The number is probably the number of times the bfly will spawn in that place.

 
"Butterfly Spawner (country name) - <name of butterfly>" - spawns bflys only of type specified from a specific WA country. The "Butterfly Spawner (country name) - Mix" spawns random bflys from the specified country only.
 
Digsites
Note: I have never used these spawners myself so this is only a guess based on how the other spawners I've used work.
 

"Digsite Spawner - <country name> - <frequency>" - spawns a digsite where sims can dig up treasure. Only spawns digsite items of the specified country. The frequency is High to Low (High=high frequency, Low=low frequency, etc). There is also a "Digsite Spawner - Fragments" and "Digsite Spawner - Generic" which probably work as expected.

 

Fish Spawners

 

"Fishing Spawner - <country name>, <type of fish> N" - spawns WA fish by country name and type of fish (type of fish is either CommonUncommon,Rare, or some specific fish name). N, if present, is probably an ordinal number that does not have to do with the number of times a spawn will occur. Fish from Egypt will also specify Oasis or River"Fishing Spawner - France, Frog Pond" spawns only Frog Pond type of fish from France.

 

"Fishing Spawner - <water type> <type of fish> N" - spawns non-WA fish by water type and type of fish (Water type is either Lake or Ocean. Type of fish is either CommonUncommonRare, or some specific fish name). N, if present, is probably an ordinal number that does not have to do with the number of times a spawn will occur. 

 

"Fishing Spawner - Deathfish/Graveyard" and "Fishing Spawner Robot Fish" work as expected. 

 

Other Fishing Spawners are listed alphabetically as shown:

 

Kissing Gourami Spawner

Sea Sludge Spawner

Sewer Trilobite Spawner

Surface Shark Spawner (spawns visible shark fin only)

Will-O'-The-Wisp Spawner

 

Gem Spawners

 

"Gem Spawner - <name of gem>" - spawns only the type of gem specified.

 

"Gem Spawner - <type> (Nx)" - spawns, I think, a type of gem classified as "High, Medium, or Low". Apparently this is the value of the gem, but not certain about this. The N is the number of times a random gem of that type will spawn in that place. These may be only BG gems, or all gems except WA, or all gems; not sure.

 

"Gem Spawner (country name) - <name of gem>" - spawns only the gem named from the specified country.

 

 

Insect Spawners

 

"Insect Spawner - China" - spawns insects used in the China tombs.

"Insect Spawner - Tomb" - spawns insects used in the Egypt tombs.

 

Junkyard Spawners

 

"Junkyard Spawner N" - spawns a random junkyard object such as an old oven. N is an ordinal number and not the number of times the item will spawn.

 

Metal Spawners

 

"Metal Spawner - <type of metal>" - spawns only the type of metal specified.

 

"Metal Spawner (country name) - <type of metal>" -  spawns only the type of metal specified from the country specified.

 

"Metal Spawner (country name) - Mix High" -  spawns a random gem from the specified country. High probably indicates high frequency.

 

"Metal Spawner (country name) - Mix Low" - spawns a random gem from the specified country. Low probably indicates low frequency.

 

Other Metal Spawners are listed alphabetically as follows:

 

Carbon Steel Spawner

RGM Spawner - Egypt

Smithsonite Spawner

Tungsten Carbide Spawner

 

 

Meteor Spawners

 

There are 4 Meteor spawners listed as "Meteor Spawner - <size of meteor>" where size is either HugeMediumSmall or Small/Medium.

 

 

Sea Life Spawners

Note: I have never used these spawners myself so this is only a guess based on how the other spawners I've used work.

 

"Sealife Spawner - High N" - spawns sealife from IP at a high frequency. N is an ordinal number and does not specify number of times the spawn will take place.

 

"Sealife Spawner - Low N" - spawns sealife from IP at a low frequency. N is an ordinal number and does not specify number of times the spawn will take place.

 

"Sealife Spawner - Medium N" - spawns sealife from IP at a medium frequency. is an ordinal number and does not specify number of times the spawn will take place.

 

"Non-collectable Sea Life Spawner" - spawns a random non-collectible sea life from IP.

 

"Underwater Shark Spawner" - spawns an actual underwater shark.

 

 

Seed Spawners

 

There are various seed spawners that are listed as follows: 

 

"Seed Spawner (country name) N" - spawns a random seed from the specified WA country. N is an ordinal number.

 

"Seed Spawner (type of seed) N" - spawns a random seed where type of seed is either Common, Rare, Special, or UncommonN is an ordinal number.

 

"Vampire's Eye Spawner" - spawns the Vampire's Eye. 

 

"Wildflower Spawner" - spawns a random wildflower. Note: these will get spawned in-game anyway if you have Seasons installed.

 

 

Small/Large Animal Spawners

Note: I personally don't recommend the use of these spawners because if you have Pets installed these items seem to spawn everywhere anyway. Using the spawners seem to make these lesser animals over-ubiquitous in the game, IMHO.

 

There are NO specific spawners for adoptable pets (cats, dogs and horses) - these will spawn randomly by the game if you have Pets installed. There are various small or large animal spawners (ie - befriendable pets) that are listed alphabetically in the Environment list as follows (N is ordinal):

 

Large Bird Spawner N

Lizard Spawner N

Rodent Spawner N

Small Bird Spawner N 

Snake Spawner N 

Turtle Spawner N

 

I believe I have listed every spawner for each EP that I have installed. Apologies in advance for any missing.

First Story

Hey everyone!

I just wanted to thank you for your comments on the Introduction of my Stroy Lost! It means so much to me, because it is my first Story!
It makes me always smile when I see there are new comments and all the nice words are such a pleasure for me :)

So my vacation is half done and I will continue if I am home. 
I was visiting an Island called "Fehmarn", a small one in north of germany at the baltic sea. It was much fun and I've got some tan! YAY :D 
But the week was too short and I am now at my boyfriends home. I wish I could go back and swim in the ocean. The beach is one of my favorite places so it is very sad that it is so far away. Round about 3-4 hours. And without a car and without a drivers licence.. Yeah. And I don't really want to go by bus or by train. 

Okay.. that's it. Just a few words that I am very thankful for your comments and I'll go on as fast as I can!



Have a nice week!

~ Sarah

Sims 2 Ultimate

 

Tumblr time.

I have two cats, and one of them loves pressing her face against my right hand while I'm using the mouse to navigate around the computer. It's cutely annoying.

So I type this with a cat watching my hands, longing in her eyes that one of them will scratch her head, to state that I've joined the Tumblr ranks (for anyone remotely curious): http://mckatsims.tumblr.com/

Sims Ultimate Collection!!

Wooop! Great news simmers! 

 

Apparently anyone who has the sims2 digital version in their origin account will be getting the sims 2 ultimate collection any day now for freeeeee!! This means you get the entire series :) Hopefully this will inspire some of you sims3-ers to get back to another brilliant game :D I might even have time to create some more custom content if interest picks up in the sims 2 again. 

Something to keep you going/try someone new if you don't have all the packs the first time, while we wait patiently for the sims 4! (Not to mention the CAS demo on August 12, rumoured date). 

 

Happy Simming!!

 

here's a link to the FAQ: http://www.beyondsims.com/54003/the-sims-2-ultimate-collection-faq/

Why not?

I am too old for Tumblr, but I'm tempted to break down, open an account, and start posting the nine billion pics I have of my sims' adventures....

 

Why? Heck if I know. Why not? ;)

Food Store

I am working on a new place. A food Store

Weird stuff.

Today I was watching Lifesimmer (if you don't know her, here is her YouTube channel : https://www.youtube.com/user/LifeSimmer (she's my favorite simmer)) and I was thinking. About everything. Related to my Sims, of course. :D

And then, I wanted to play The Sims 3 so badly, but when I started to play, I just wasn't interested in my game & stuff. But when I watch Lifesimmers's videos, I always want to play The Sims 3 badly, but I never enjoy the game. :/

Anyone else has got the same feeling?

And who is your favorite Simmer or/and Simblr?

And I know that I suck at blogging, but - OH WELL. :D

Update N7

Hello!

Currently a new story is waiting for it's approval, and heck, I love it.. now I'm busy with Chapter 15 of Endless, and damn, I love it so much too. 

I've a new dress which.. I'm not sure about if I should be uploading it on TSR or not... neh, I think I will ^^ It's a really simple one. But I've had good feedback so yea! Why not.  

Diamond Key: World In Progress

Diamond Key is more than halfway finished now.  Updates have been made to three of the main parts of the town. Have a look!

Town Square

 

The subway alights your sim right into the middle of Town Square.

 

Enjoy family-friendly activities in Town Square, the heart of Diamond Key!

 

Roller skating is a convenient and entertaining pastime in Town Square.

 

 

Town Square is surrounded by seven essential business places (rabbit holes). Going from one to the other is easy; just a walk in the park!

 

 

Eat at the Bistro where you can gaze over the park, or sit on the covered balcony for a view of the waterfall while you dine.

 

 

 

Market Square

 

Step from the subway right into a rural paradise in Market Square.

 

Extensive community gardens in Market Square offer fresh produce to any who are willing to harvest it.

 

 A farmer's market offers all the charm of rural fun.

 

Ambitious sims can have a crack at starting their own business at one of the many empty stalls in Market Square. Sell some of that garden produce you were just picking!

 

 

An empty lot near Market Square, where both horse lovers and vegetable lovers can live their dreams.

 

Diamond Key's Legacy Lot is right next to Market Square.

 

 

Business Square

 

 

The subway is flanked by a food stand (food register) and a newsstand (books register) in the middle of Business Square.

 

 

Working sims can pick up essential reading materials at the newsstand on their way home from work!

 

Chess and painting are the pastimes encouraged in this Square, to stimulate the scientific and creative sides of business.

 

 

Business Square gives quick and easy access to Diamond Key's business and industrial sections. City Hall is just a park away!

EA fails.

I bought the latest Store set, the one with the tea set and the cannery station to make jams and canned goods...and I have to say that the EA people clearly did not research what the homemade canning process looks like. 'Cause I nearly had a heart attack when my sim put both of her hands in the canning pot to pull out jars that had just been processed. (You do that IRL and you wind up in the hospital with 1st degree burns on your hands....)


Facepalming forever. Is it that hard to add animation?

New House and New Simspiration!

Hi Simmers

I havent written a Blog post in over a year. I took about 6 months off from creating. basically as I was not inspired and was busy playing new EPs lol. But since May I have come back full force in creating.. having been inspired by spring. 

I am eagerly anticipating Sims 4 release in Sept.. and thought in the meantime i would create my little heart out! I believe I will eventually create for Sims 4 as well in due season. I fully plan on still playing Sims3 even after Sims4 comes out.

Anyways..  I have been trying to make both modern and contemporary homes. My next attempt is to be a Victorian style home.

 Have a great day and Happy Simming!

 

Demmit

Sooo, technical difficulties have popped up lately and its really messing up my story progress. I have three weeks to fix whtever's happening, so please bear with me

Update N6

Yea. I'm not going to call it a "daily" update anymore haha. Though this one is quite on time.

Oke, so I decided to not put the sim with a massive amount of slides on this site. Instead, I'll do another one. A male. *SMIRK*
PS. I've been thinking about. putting story characters, up for download. (For example, Drew from Sudden End, or perhaps someone from Endless)
But.. maye not.. since they use sliders.. argh. OR I'll have to search for all the sliders and such. zzz

Ok. what to do now.. I'm first going to do the 3 sims first.. and start thinking of how I should order the storyline from Endless Chapter 14.
I already have a huge idea, but it has some weirdish... yea.. I've no idea how to call it.. It's going to be a mess if I do it wrong xD

ok.. OH... I still need to do a picture for the Black and White! contest. jajajaja =D

Gawd, I hate my game at times.

Game's been running like a snail lately, so after intensive computer maintenance, and reinstalling both Origin and the base game, the game seems to be running a little smoother now. Have I mentioned how much I detest having to remain logged in to Origin in order to play the frickin' game? Thanks, EA, for making my laptop work harder than it should.... >:(


Right now I'm at the "I hate all custom content" place. It slows down everything about the game, especially the crap I've bought from the Sims 3 Store. Trouble is, I'm so used to having custom content in my game, that I don't know how much I'd enjoy playing without it. I try to limit the number of .ebc and .dbc files I have in the DCCache folder, but it's hard to do, considering the stuff I use all the time is either part of a world or a venue, where I can't pick and choose what I want to install. (Thanks, greedy Store people, for that. *snerk*) I've just tried playing with no custom content, and boy do my sims look bad, lol. I use a lot of Store clothes, so while they're all still rockin' the 3rd party custom content (no way I'm eliminating that), their clothing is sadly lacking.

Argh, why does this game have to be such a memory hog? WHY? (And don't get me started on The Sims 4, which is still a 32-bit game and I don't even know how the heck they can justify that when all other decent games out there are 64-bits and my laptop laughs at anything 32-bit....)

/end rant

Daily Update N5?

Not-so-daily update Number 5

Hello ladies, gents and.. aliens. xD
Yea, I'm still a but behind with a lot of things. I want to comment on every piece of clothing and screenshots..
And I still want to read the unread stories. And oh, bummer, there are so many.. o________o
+ I'm also busy with writing myself ARGH. I'm currently thinking about the end of Endless...

Here's a chance of.. when the end will be.
25% in Chapter 14
70% in Chapter 15
5% in chapter 16+

So as you can see.. it may be chapter 15, but I'm still not sure.. which means.. you guys will have to wait till chapt 14 is out.

----

Alright! I'm soon going to publish another sim on here. (I've been publishing 3 outside TSR lol.) But.. this one on here.. will be my first and last one, that uses sliders. I used sliders, due my urge to create this sim with great detail. & The person for who I've created this, accepted it that I'll be using sliders. So that's done.

I have to find a way though, to have all the sliders for you guys to be avaible in a not so hard way.. and I'm working on that ^^

Furthermore.. I had been planning on creating a house, and I saw someone with a request, not sure if he/she's going to accept it though. I haven't heard anything from him/her. So if I'm not getting an answer soon. I won't be doing that request anymore, and start with something by myself.

I've been creating 3 clothing. 
1 - A bikini
2 - A simple dress
3 - Elsa's Coronation Dress.

Elsa's Coronation Dress, happened to be published some days ago. I'm still going to finish mine sometime, because I'm doing it for someone who had requested it on the forums. Since I've already half hand-painted the texture of my version and wasted a lot of time in it, I'm not just going to scrap it. =]

The simple dress is really, simple, but damn, I LOVE the texture. The mesh is partly modified by me ^^
The bikini is a simple texture change. =] (Not sure if I'll be publishing it though.) 

YOU KNOW WHAT. I can simply create special clothing, for myself, without sharing. LOL, somehow that feels so satisfying. Sorry, now i'm being mean xD But I love to play with photoshop and creating stuff. So yea.

Oh man, what have I typed? LOL so much.
Anyways, I'm obviously still playing the game too. Currently I'm even doing some kind of Legacy Challenge and I oughted my self to not use any cheats and all that fancy stuff. OK.

 

That's it for now. BYE! 

World in Development: Diamond Key

I am working on my first major word in Create-A-World for the Sims 3. It's called Diamond Key!

 

 

One of Diamond Key's lighted nature trails at sunset.

 

Diamond Key is a medium-sized island world. My main goals in designing this world are:

1. Mostly flat land to make for easy lot management for players and builders

2. Leave enough space between lots to allow players to delete the original lot and put another one of similiar size in it's place

3. Provide a few nice, non-cookie-cutter pre-built homes in different sections of the town

4. Keep custom content to a minimum to curtail size and make it easer to install

5. Provide beautiful, realistic, and original landscaping with spawners for exploration or storytelling

6. Create each section of the town around a basic theme

7. Build in simple but diversified transportation options

8. Provide enough scenery around lot areas to enhance picture-taking for lots

9. Design world with enough pre-existing Rabbit Holes to start a substantial game with little or no pre-building

 

Diamond Key World Specs:

 

World Size: Medium

Population: 0 (at present)

# Residential Lots:

# Non-Residential Lots:

# of Residential Lots with ready-built home: 3

 

Rabbit Holes included:

Courthouse

Mausoleum

Rustler's Den (Criminal Warehouse)

 

Required EPs: WA-AM-LN-GEN-PETS-SEAS-UL-IP

World Features:

I wanted to design a world with a small-town feel to both rural and urban areas, to look like an older town that has the "beautiful but slightly spooky" feel. Each section of town has it's own theme and contains flat or mostly-flat lots surrounded by theme-appropriate scenery. Old Miner's Town and Ancient Ruins feature lighted nature trails for sims to peruse and explore. Plenty of spawners, mostly theme-appropriate. Industrial Section and Wharf offer interactive objects such as chess, easel, and bonfire for sims to use ad lib. Town sections are each built around a theme as follows: Downtown, Boardwalk Beach, Old Lighthouse, The Swamp, The Wharf, Industrial Section, Business Section, Old Miner's Town, Ancient Ruins, Inland Lake, Farmland, and Banyan Peninsula. Other features include: 4 waterfalls, 4 bridges, mini-graveyard, inland lake. Most sections are accessible by roadways and sidewalks including navigable bridges. An extensive subway system accesses all parts of the island. Diamond Key currently has no custom content and no store content.

This is a work in progress. Please come back to my TSR page to check for updates or development news. When complete, I plan to make Diamond Key available via a mediafire link in the Create-A-World forum on this site.

Comments and/or constructive criticism is always welcome.

 

More Pictures of Diamond Key

 

 

Harvestables of all kinds can be found in all the navigable parts of Diamond Key.

 

Trails in Diamond Key feature themed scenery, seats, and lights.

 

Banyan Falls is one of four waterfalls in Diamond Key.

 

 A pre-built lot in the Old Lighthouse section of town.

 

 Old Mining Town's beautiful but spooky scenery invites only the bravest sims to explore.

 

The old mine is guaranteed to turn up rare (or not so rare) gems and metals.

 

 

The Industrial Section features intriguing urban locations including an old favorite, "The Grind". 

 

Drifter/Homeless sims will find it easier to start life near the Industrial Section where useful items may be found among the scenery or in lots.

 

Downtown in Diamond Key, sims will find a mix of modern conveniences among scenery that hints at the town's history.

 

Wildlife are attracted to every part of Diamond Key.

 

 

Fishing spots are beautiful and easy to find.

What's Black and White and Red All Over!?

A Newspaper!  (Get it?  Red / Read).... ok fine!  Black is the new white! Or maybe white is the new black... who can say for sure! What we can tell you is that we're having a screenshot contest and the theme is Black and White!

Take a screenshot in one of your Sims games (Sims 2 or Sims 3) and either transform it into black and white using an editing program, or simply make it as black and white as possible using objects and clothing that are already black and white.  It never hurts to add a pop of color here and there, but the majority of the image should be black and white! Your shot can be anything related to Sims, but it must be PG-13.

Upload your screenshot to TSR, with the title 'Black and White!' To do that, click on Account at the top of the front page, scroll down to Edit Screenshots and click. Choose the tab at the top that says Submit Screenshot and fill in the information. Also, make sure you change the Public to Yes or no one will see it. 

You may enter as many times as you like.

Entries must be submitted by 10PM EST on Saturday, August 9th 2014. Winners will be announced by Thursday, August 14th, 2014.

The first prize winner will see their screenshot on our Facebook page and will also receive a full month of VIP access to the site (no advertisements, use of the download basket, etc).

Second place will get two weeks of VIP access.

Third place will get one week of VIP access.

(If the winner is already a VIP, the time will simply be added to the number of days left on their current account.)

Good Luck and Have Fun!

Daily Update N4

Hello lovelies! 

So... tomorrow I'll have my last test. Math, I'm ready for you. *puts jet-black sunglasses on*
After I've done the test. I'll take a nap. After a few hours, I'll wake up with a good feeling.
I've no idea what I'll be doing then. . . Oh well, I've to work at 5PM.. But man, there's 3 things I'm definitely going to do. 

1. Reading every story I've had followed. I haven't been able to read every story on the site. A few, but I'm missing the latest ones! But I'll get uptodate soon. =]

2. Finishing a sim, and put it up for download! I've been working on a sim . . . . Soon.. you'll see.

3. Writing Endless. The name may be Endless, the story isn't. It's going to it's end. The question however is, when? Well, we'll see!

Waiting For The Sims 4

HELLO EVERYONE! 
I WANT TO TELL YOU THAT I LEAVE TO CREATE THINGS FOR THE SIMS 3
I ENJOYED PLAING VERY MUCH! BUT I GOT A LITTLE BIT BORED OF IT
CANOT WAIT FOR THE SIMS 4! 
WILL RETURN WHEN THE GAME ARRIVE WITH NEW AND FRESH STUFF! 

ALAN 

Er, story?

5000 or so words into a story, and I wonder why I keep adding ideas to this already behemouth piece. (You should see my notes, seriously...) My writing muse, she dreams in vividly colorful epics. Oh well, it's not like I haven't written 50-60,000 word novels already.

I just wonder how I'll post this on TSR...or even if I will post here. The places I want to take this story, it won't be approved I suspect. :\ This might end up on my Livejournal page.

Power of Pink Diningtable

I had to update the Power of Pink Diningtable because the Sim could eat, but not just sit at the Table. I'm sorry for the inconvinience.

So if you play and not only decorate in Game pls. redownload the Table. New Filename: ShinoKCRPowerofPinkDiningtableUpdatetAnim.
