So you know what that means right? New set-up! I got done hours ago, but I've been spending the last couple of hours checking out blinkies. I used to be able to make them, but I don't think I have the software now, but I may try my hand at them again. PPL have mad talent anymore tho. So I joined up with [info]blinkiesaurus. Really seems awesome. Anyways on to the hammies.
As I was standind here taking the pictures I realized just how much room the hamsters take up in my living room. Wanna see?

I haven't updated several of my accts at various sites in a long time. SO since I have nothing better to do today at work, I've updated my Myspace and my flickr.
Links are on my sidebar if you want to check them out. I don't think I've ever showed the sims community anything about myself other sim related. SO Welcome to my land. Its strange and fun. If anyone wants to add me on either site, please do. :)

No, I haven't been simming. No I haven't in.... omg over a month. WHY? Well, first I have alot going on, and second the Sims 3 looks great but everytime I load the game up, I just dont want to do it. I've gone back into lurking mode mostly, I'm sure I'll get my groove back soon. I'm still reading story updates tho, so hopefully I can sit down and read the few updates I need to and comment.
I've started to post more RL stuff to this journal lately, so if you don't want to see it, you can go ahead and de-friend me. I won't be upset. ;) I know some people don't want to see all my crazy hamster stuff.
So anyways just a quick HI from me. And no I'm not dead.
Hope everyone in the simming world is doing awesome!

So I changed it last night. I like this set-up much better. Moto (our chinese drawf) loves this one, he has been alllllll over it already. Awesome-O is more content to follow Moto and sit in the tubes near the waters and food. He's a fatty. So Moto just sqeezes by and keeps going lol. I need to get some pictures of them.  
 
Photobucket
I like it this way better. Its out of the way and nice and dark on the shelves. This pic was taken with my phone so not the best. Will take more later of course. As long as I'm not bugging anyone. I love looking at everyones set ups, gives me ideas. :)

Two post today- I'm on a roll. lol

This is my next set of picspam for the Bellfire's. Mostly covers what I've been doing since my re-build. It jumps around but I wanted to post it anyway...


 
This is the new Bellfire Cove. Most of the houses are empty, b/c most of the ancestors files were not savable. The only two people I could extract were Fiona and Will. So those were the two I started over with. The big house on the right is the main household.
 

 

Cut to spare you.. clicky here )



So thats it for now. Til next time. Happy simming.

So I've been gone for a couple of days. The 16th was my 5 year wedding anniversary, so hubby and I went over to Orlando and saw Sea World. Always so much fun when you stay somewhere else. :) So now that I'm back and back to work, I'm working on more recolors.
Some people have requested more plain-er colors or less bright. So I've working on those.
(I can't help it, I always want those BRIGHT NEON colors. lol)
I also haven't given up on my Holy Simoly verisons either.

Also I have a request for anyone thats using the first activity tables I made. Over at MTS2, I have them posted, and I got some feedback that the blue one might be glitching up? I was just wondering if anyone here has had any issues?
I've been using my yellow one today for a bit and no problem.

Thanks for any help!
Have a pic of a holy simoly dangler... Its coming along. Less bright, yes?

Ok, I promise this is the last set. You will have every color for your toddler tables, it has become my mission. LOL But I think I'm done now. I really want to try my hand at this months project over at GOS for manly men! Not sure what I could do, but I wants to do something.
Anyways back on topic. When I started looking for toddler tables I was lead to Parasimonious's Mere Folly Set by several people. I loved this table. It just doesn't match much. Another thing that bothered me, after getting it in game, it was the MOST expensive thing in my child bin. $600 for toddler table, hmm no.

So I checked out their TOS, and they say I can include the original object with my recolors. So my verison of their table is the same price as all the other tables, and another good note, this table WAS RECOLORABLE. So all 6 colors are under the one table. Don't know how they did it, but I took advantage of it.

Now the textures I pulled from mostly Holy Simoly, and I also used Parasimonious's orginial wood as one recolor, so 6 colors in all.
I hope everyone enjoys these. I think my table obsession is cured. ;)

Light wood, whitewood, pinewood, original wood, cherrywood, and blackwood

I may very well have a problem. It seems I've become obsessed with the toddler table, I must make every recolor I can. LOL Which I am loving btw...
Anyways, I'm a big fan of Holy Simoly. I really love this Donation Pack that they put out. I use it alot in game. So I was just browsing around some LJ's today and came across Ndainye's Holy Simoly Crib and Bedding. Looking at the crib textures, I thought "HEY I might be able to use those on the toddler table! Hmmmm, lets go see." So for the past 5 hours, I have been cutting and pasting these textures on the table. I probably opened the Sims game 30 times tonight to test them, and my poor sims would sit at it for a few and I would exit without saving and do the whole process over again. I'm sure their quite mad for me teasing them so. :)
Anyways, These four I did tonight are some of my favorites. If you go by Ndainye's crib set, these are # 01, 02, 11, and 12. It was from the crib bedding that I grabbed these.
So here they are for grabs. I hope you will enjoy. Links after the cut.

I've been looking for days for toddler activity table recolors, I found a couple quite fab ones over at GOS> But they are a little dark for my taste. I like bright blues and pinks in my nursery! So I said the hell with it. I can do this.
And I did.
I thought it turned out to be quite simple. My only problem is that the table can not be recolored. I made sure I had the lastest CEP installed. But when you try to recolor it it makes an empty file. So I had to clone it. No biggie to me.  BUT I made two colors, Pink and Blue. When I put these files into my DL folder, and open the game. The orginial table disappears and my one color will show and works. 
I want to have multiples, dammit.
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? I want this to work.
Edit: I found my issue. I didn't have different GUIDS. LOL Beginners problem. Ok so now I'm working on my recolors. I should have these available SOON! HOORAY!
EDIT 2: I've done it! I now have two five recolors to share with you.
NOTE: Every recolor is a separate object. Because the original table is not recolorable, I had to create separate items. Not to big of a deal. But if you download all my files you will have several tables in your child section. Download links at bottom of post.

Anyways heres a few pictures of what I got. Right now I have a pink table in game. It looks awesome. But not every house is gonna need the pink one. :(

Well It may have seem I've been ignoring my Bellfire's. But I haven't. When I can't play the Vela family, which I haven't been able to since Jan because I played way to far ahead of myself. LOL  So in between writing and procastinating, I've been playing the Bellfires.
Feel free to skip this picspam, but I wanted to post it to keep my journal in sync. :)

Click for Pics )

So alittle bit of picspam. I've got the rest of this weekend off, so I'm going to try and get some writing done.
Anyone else got any plans?
