Old, Archived Dead Threads Graveyard

Don't fuss about trying to find TJ's gray ensemble for me, Ed.
If you remember where you got it, I could just pop over there and look around a bit.
No problem! (Unless, of course, it's a site with six billion male ensembles. Then, I think I could do without the outfit! )

It's so neat to see Sal in your game.
I thought it was a hoot that you had forgotten he was in the hood, then just about fell over when you caught site of him.
Too funny!

I don't know how I missed this, Cajsa. So sorry!
Like Elle, I enjoy your screenshots.

It's lovely seeing the family as it grows, together.
Thank you for sharing, as always.

I look forward to seeing some of your landscaping, Calli.
You should share what you've done on some of your lots in your "What's Going on in Your Game" thread.
We'd love to see it.

Well, here is the what I accomplished earlier today:





Notice I removed most of the neighborhood redbud/pink trees from behind the cottage.
I think I read that Ulli feels I should change the lot redbuds/pink trees to green.
So, I'll go ahead and do that tomorrow. Still not sure about the soft teal exterior with the purple flowers, but Ulli likes it!

Makin progress ... stay tuned ...

Yes I would like to see how it changes with the green trees.
I think those purple tulips gives enough color to the plantation and to the garden.

Maybe put a purple tulip in that rock tree plantation you have to the right. The one you did first, when you have changed the tree.

It´s a cool, peace full garden

This is a recolor request I made over at BPS. It's Michael's house........Naturally.

It's off centered, I know. I still have to work on that.

I also got a blue and white recolor for TJ's house. Didn't get a picture of that. But, I will!

Oh, the big picture doesn't come with the set. It's a seperate download. I saw that and I sat here going, that is so Michael.

EDIT: Sugah, here's the link for TJ's outfit. Click me and be prepared to be amazed!

Ok, back to Knyttis "little" family. (now with seven children!)


There's allways a lot happening with that much kids. The teenage boy in the sofa is the oldest child, Knyttoflimpo, with his girlfriend Dennadära. They aren't shy...


Here he is again with his girl.


Labrafin, the oldest daughter is now a teen.


And she has a boyfriend, Frank (npc).


The youngest child grew up to a wild child.


The young twins grew up to teens. Now they are five teens and one child.


They had another baby! And now they want 10 children!


Three of the kids in their pyamas.

And just for fun my husband made a sim to look like me, and I one to look like him. But we don't think any one of them really looks like us.


Well this looks like us because I allways jump into his arms like that.

What a unique set, Ed! Who did the mesh?
It's got enough of an old fashioned look to it that I could see it (in other colors/fabrics) in my Vermicelli's abode.
(Nana Josie and Papa Dom are Vinnie Rigatoni's in-laws, fyi.)
That's beautiful wall art. I love the style and dimension of it.

Thank you for the link. I've already downloaded both!
And thank you for sharing your Sims world with us.

Okay, Ulli. Thank you.
I wrote in your Guide to Better Landscaping thread that I'd change the trees to green.
I'll also add the purple tulip, as suggested here.

I'm so glad you approve and that you like it.
Is there some sort of statue or object I can add in the yard to bring it all home and make it look more appealing and charming?
Or is it enough the way it is? I don't want it to look too busy but I would like it to look warm and welcoming.

Added later at 12:30 pm cst:

I changed the exterior of the house and am thinking I rather like it better than the soft teal.
I may do a whole soft purple/lavender theme, inside and out and simply call it ...

You're welcome!

The original mesh set is from Tarox. Don't have the set name.

I needed something for that empty space near the door leading outside. I saw a green recolor of the set and put a request in for two different recolors. That is one of the two.

Isn't that wall art amazing?!!? Shame I can't find one for TJ and Charles......

I think I have Tarox's site bookmarked. I must've by-passed that set, Ed.
I wonder if you couldn't put in a request to have that beautiful female wall art converted to male.
Why not? Folks with talent to do that sort of thing shouldn't have any problem achieving it.
Wouldn't you think?

I don't think that hair comes with Seasons. I have Seasons and I don't remember seeing that hair in my game. What other EPs do you have, Cally. Maybe it came with a different one that you have, one that I don't have.

I could, but I'd be too paranoid to. We know it's for two males Sims and that's what's basically stopping me. But, they don't. I'm up in the air about it.

Oh! I hadn't even thought about that.
I have so many gays in my game, it wouldn't occur to me to not ask for something special to put in their abode or be concerned about posting pics of their lives together.
Did I say that right? My brain's not cooperating with me this morning.

But I understand how you feel and your uncertainty regarding making such a request.

Wow great set Ed!

Me like it

The wall art is so cool

Sugah can we do the request for Ed?
Btw I would love to have that wall art converted to a male.

ok i checked in bodyshop and yes i got it wrong the hair actually comes with the sims 2 kitchen and bathroom sp, sorry, i was sort of right...maybe not! :giggling:

And thank you so much for your comment ullwera!

Kitchen and Bath SP? That must mean I actually have it in this game.
I downloaded that SP quasi-recently, but because I haven't created many Sims since then, I might've missed it.
Gonna check today.
Thank you, Cally.

Thank you!

I'm still iffy about the picture. But, you two could make me one, I'd be eternally grateful.

Here's the second part of my request.

This is for TJ and Charles.


Since I'm working on the house, I made this for them

Knyttoflimpo definitely is not scared of public displays of affection, that is for sure. They are a really cute couple, as are Labrafin and her boyfriend. You did a good job pairing them up.

I love the pics of you and your "sim husband", that is a really cute idea. I enjoyed all your pics, as usual and I thank you for sharing them. I am enjoying watching your pixel dollies grow up.

I don't know how I could. It's not just a matter of copying and pasting an image into SimPE.
I think it looks more complicated than that.
My guess is it would take a more seasoned recolorist to turn that beautiful female image into a gorgeous male.
Otherwise, I definitely would have offered to do a male version for you both, Ulli and Ed.
I'm sorry. I don't think it's within my capabilities.

Oooh, I like TJ and Edward's soft blue recolors of Tarox's set. Very nice.
I could definitely see that in the Vermicelli's abode.
And you are having altogether too much fun with Angelsway's magazine mesh! Don't you just love the possibilities?
Fun stuff!

I think it's great! Yes, I am having too much fun with it.

Amazing what you could do with it.

That just clicked in my head and off I went.

Great work, Sugah, you really brought this house to life. I love it.

Thank you, Elle. I appreciate the lovely feedback mucho.
I've since edited that post and added images of the lavender version.
There are more pics of the changes I made in Ulli's Guide to Better Landscaping thread, for those interested.
If you haven't already visited it, you really should, folks. I'm learning a LOT from Ulli's lessons and having fun doing so.

Your very welcome sugah! Sorry i got the wrong game i have nearly all eps and sps so its easy to get confuddled!

Ok back to my pics!

A family of three ive created for a friend:




And ive had a try(notice this work please!) at creating make-up ingame, i think the word awful is useful here, but at least i tried yes!:

awful atempt one:


Dreadful attempt two:


Comments welcome and i hope you are all continuing to enjoy my little album/goings on!

Next up im hoping to show you some of my decorative and landscaping skills.

It so lovely seeing this house come along sugah, you have done an amazing job on the outside!

Me personally i loved the teal, but thats personal preference i can easily change that ingame when you put it up for download.

The landscaping around the edge of the house is supberb! The white and purple are so simple yet so effective!

You should share what you've done on some of your lots in your "What's Going on in Your Game" thread.

Im starting a house project tonight i will be building the house, landscaping and decorating it and will show all stages in my thread to see what you all think! I will warn you though one room will change about 15 times as im abit of a perfectionest at times...

I don't know how I missed this thread. I love your legacy sim, she is very attractive; love the dark hair, blue eyes combination. Are you doing a traditional legacy challenge or a modified one? I enjoy doing them, but I usually stick to the original format. I also enjoy the Prosperity Challenge, which is a good way to populate an empty 'hood with your own sims.

Usually when I start a legacy, my sim sleeps on a tent on their land. I got some really cute camping tents from Parsimonious here. They are so broke when you start the challenge that if you build four walls you are almost down to no simoleons, lol. Anyway, I think you are off to a great start and created a wonderful founder.

The dresses are lovely, you did a really good job recoloring them. I look forward to seeing more of your work and following your legacy founder through the challenge. Thank you for sharing your pics.
