Old, Archived Dead Threads Graveyard

Isn't that a great painting! The minute I saw it, I knew exactly where it was going.

I honesty have no idea who did it. I tried looking up close but it gets blurry.

The red wall is actually a window. All4Sims did a few recolors. That was one of them. There's also a soft blue one I'm going to use in TJ's house. If I ever get around to it. The window mesh is from 4EveerSimFantasy. Same bedroom set I got the painting and the white sculpture from.

Thanks, Ed. I'll go check it out...see if I can find that window. It's very cool. Looks good where you have it, too.

Thank you for your comments, Em. I enjoyed reading them.

I could see them maybe adopting an older kid or a teen (not sure that's possible though)...they seem to be fulfilled in their lives without children.

I think I tried to have one of my fave elderly couples adopt a teen once, but only wee ones thru kids were available.
That is, if I am remembering correctly. It was Bibi Chevalier and her hubby. They were both playful Taurus Sims and very young at heart.
Their adopted son was Sebastian. I fell in love with that little fella. He grew up to be a darling teen.

But I digress...

I think you are right about Barty and Sunny, Em. They DO seem to be fulfilled in their lives just as they are now.

Unless, of course, Sunny is trying to impress him with yet another dirty joke...

Ok i though i would share my stuff with all you lovely people! To start with this is my legacy sim she is my absoulte fave sim of all time and is very dear to my heart so nice comments only please!

Her name is karen dreaming and as you can see she is a family sim!




and with her fave expres​sion(she makes this one a lot!)


Lastly we have a tribute to my very strange decorative style!


I hope you all like more coming soon, so watch this space!

Something happened to my dad's picture......All those white "dots" so I took it out.

I'll replace it when I get a better one

Karen is a very pretty Sim - in a natural way. I Love that! I'm guessing she will make you some beautiful Sim offspring if she lives up to her aspiration.

I must say, for me, her decor is a bit dark. Dark and sparse.......Oh My God! Reminds me of my first apartment for about the 1st couple of weeks I lived there!!! I had one reclining chair, a milk crate with my TV on it and one halogen lamp. I lived like that till all of my furniture was delivered.

I'm all about light and florals and comfort now - but thanks for bringing back my youth!

Oh Ed - never apologize for falling behind My Friend.

Look how long it's taken ME to respond.

Thank you for your kind words.

And I'm so happy you and Sugah both like the house. I can NOT wait to start playing again!

I love her hair and skin, Cally. Her eyes give her a quasi-anime look. Don't you think?
NO playful points. That's interesting! I don't think I've ever had a Sim with NO playful points.

Interesting decorating style.
Hunter took the words right out of my mouth: dark and sparse

What is it about that style that appeals to you, madame?
Obviously, we are all different, but my curious nature causes me to ask, "WHY?"

I'm so glad you've started your own thread to share Cally's (Sims) Ups & Downs.
Thank you for sharing and I hope you'll continue to do so here.

I was playing around with Angelway's 1 magazine mesh and tried to see if I could do something.

The top picture is the one that was used to make Michael. The one underneath it is in my avatar and signature whenever I switch it. And, if you look at the bottom right, you'll see something familiar.

Also, it's really hard to read but, the title of the "article" says, Michael McDonald & Vittorine Di`Roma.

THank you very much hunter, im really glad you like karen, generally i try to make my sims naturally beautiful if i can!
LOL yes it is a bit dark and sparse but i do have my reasons im doing a challenge with karen and she only had 100 to decorate her home! so theres no windows(dark) and very little objects, just a place to sleep, some books to read and a few flowers and decorative objects to brighten up the place!

LOL it reminds me of my first house, i couldn't afford furniture so there was just a matress on the floor a chair and some books until i was able to get the money together!

but thanks for bringing back my youth!

Glad i was able to bring back the youth hon!

THank you sugah, i never thought about her eyes that way but i can certainly see your point!
In the challenge everything had to be randomised, i think this may be the first time i had a sim so serious!
I like many styles sugah, as to why, why not! i like seeing how different styles work, my house in real life is all whites and florals so in the sims i love being able to do things i couldn't here, sometimes so many colours put together it looks like a rainbow not a room :giggling2: sometimes sparse and dark it depends on my mood, i just dont like everything to be like my house. And its fun to try new things!


I'm so glad you both like the start of my album! i will get some more pics up later today ;)

Such a beautiful sim cally! Def beautiful in a very natural way i love her hair!

Oh, it was a random deal!
You know, a very serious (NO playful), very grouchy (NO nice), very shy (NO outgoing) neatnik might make for a very interesting Sim.
I might let one loose in a hood of mine. :lol!:

I agree with you, Cally.
My house is mostly neutrals with a splash of color here and there.
Not sure what it will look like after we redecorate, but for now, I'm surrounded by beige and taupe! lol
You'll see a lot of my Sims rooms are quite colorful and often bold.
I'm a lot braver decorating my Sim's abodes than my own. ;)

How cool is this?!? Isn't it fun?
I think the possibilities are endless, actually.

I like what you've done so far.

I can NOT figure out how to get a recolor preview in SimPE like that. HELP!

Thanks bdh hon, im very glad you like her!

I think alot of simmers proberbly are, its nice to be able to mess with different syles with the sims and see what works and what doesn't and you just cannot do that in the same way in real life! My husband is a white freak everything in the house has to be white and i just hate it so with my sims i use very little white if i can!

I like that........Thank you!

I know there's a seperate program you download. It's think you get it over where you got SimPE....I can't remember off the top of my head.

You're kidding??? Do you think you could find out what the name of it is? I will gladly seek it out myself, once I know what it's called.
Would LOVE to preview my recolors. The only way I can see them now, is to start up the game.

How cool is that?!!?

Mega Cool!! All of it!!

I like Michael´s hair it does look very nice.
He seems to enjoy that music he is playing.

Smillan LOVES to play the piano.


Sisters playing. (Ringlan and Istottan)


Smillan grew up and, offcourse, had a make over by her mother.


Smillan wants to learn too.


The whole family


Smillan again.

Ed, you are quite the treasure hunter; all of this is way cool! Thanks for sharing your finds with us, and showing us that fabulous hair. I owe you a smiley for a job well done.

Smillan is definitely coming into her own. I love the pic of the sisters together. Thanks for sharing your sim world with us; your pics were a pleasure to look at as usual.

Thank you......

I'm still amazed at that hair. How I found it is beyond me. It just seems to fit him perfectly. The magazine, I owe thanks to someone. The sheet music, I owe my thanks to someone over at Black Pearl. That waterheater I found in a website update. I do know that BeosBoxBoy did it.

You ARE quite the treasure hunter! A lot of good finds.
I love Michael's hair. Shouldn't I have that in my game? ;)
Where did you find it? It's beautiful.

The Cafe and Bistro paintings look so neat in your game. Thank you for showing a pic of them.
Good job on the sheet music. Looks terrific!

I'm still trying to remember the name of that program. I even looked where I keep all of my downloads and couldn't find it. I just can't remember the name of it.

I am grateful for your attempts. If you can remember or if you ask someone who might now over at BPS, I'd be very appreciative.

BeosBoxBoy does a lot of cool stuff; I have some of his downloads from Insimenator.
