A good week!

Wow Ok, I just checked the downloads on Amelia's Castle and I'm really happy with it! I got side tracked and busy with a few other projects so haven't had a chance to upload anything else yet... Here's what I've been working on!

I've posted the story on The Simmers Scociety here

I'm hoping to post the sims and eventually Clara's Art Deco home here!

First showing

Well, Amelia Castle made it to the downloads page and is doing ok- as in it hasn't bombed completely!! I know it's a slow process and it's got a lot of excellent competition, so I am ok with it's starting results! Now that I've figured it all out, I think I can put some of my other creations up... I have a few that are all ready to go.  Now, though I have to go in search of the best way to upload and display my sims!

Next step!

Woooooooooooot Alright!! Now I have managed to upload my avi! She's favorite snowy little elf type sim- Snow Sprite! She is pretty basic with very little cc so I may try uploading and submitting her... But, for now, I will wait to see how my first creation does. If it does half way decent, I'll try more of them!

I have also stuck a little toe into forums to test those waters a bit, that's still quite scary though! It's a very big place out there and I am quite used to my cozy little neighborhood over at tss. I do think though that I need to venture out to other places once in a while. It's always good to go out visiting!!

A bit of success

Ahhhh I am pleased to say my very first upload has been approved and will be published tomorrow! I am excited! Only hope it does well. That's is the frustrating part of sharing your work. You can think it's a master piece, but that doesn't mean anyone else will agree with you! And, with so many fantastic builders out there I'm quite sure my little builds will struggle a bit. But, I am willing to take that chance.

I have spent the last year or so battling with the sims3 site exchange where I was uploading my creations. I am so disappointed and frustrated with it though that I am hoping I can find a home here for my creations. I don't expect amazing and awesome results but I would hope that at least this site won't be broke half of the time, eat my creations for lunch and then feature a pair of shoes that someone recolored. As I said, I am just so disillusioned by it that I am having a hard time finding my self confidence with creating again.

Making progress

Ok, I have made some progress in figuring the submission process out! Thank you so much to my friends over at tss, KateKnight, Peacemake, and Garbuckle!! I managed to get the lot uploaded and submitted, along with some pics- not really happy about those mainly because I was at high frustration level right then and got too impatient! I will know better next time. I am determined to get this process figured out and share my creations here! Now, let's see if I can get a few pics to show up here?!

Yay!! Well, that worked the way it was suppose to!!

Trying to figure everything out

Arrrghhh Ok, I have decided to attempt uploading and submitting my creations to this site... I have figured part of it out but still have questions and am getting seriously frustrated with finding no answers anywhere to my questions!! Am at the point where I feel like I'm getting nowhere and am just talking to myself? So, my sim life has begun to resemble the rest of my life!!

I know how to upload my packaged exported lot. What I can't find answers to is whether I can change my cover pics on with the image upload changer program I've been using. I also can't find anywhere the size that my pics need to be for my screenshots? I normally transfer them out of my game screenshot folder to photo edit them in some other program and or upload them to my photoshare site and change the original sized of them... Ya think I can find answers to these silly questions any where? NO!! It then makes me feel completely incompetent because obviously these must be really random stupid questions if no one else bothers to think of them except me?!!!
