...in your game? Sometimes when I lose interest in my game I check out some other peoples photos of their game just to get some enthusiasm to actually start playing again. I decided I wanted to make a thread a little bit like this for our forum; so here it is! It's simple: just upload some photos, add some commentary if you want to do so, and post the message! Let our little community know what exactly you have been doing in your game, and then read up on other's! [babble] Right now in my game I'm creating a sim which I'm going to name Meghan Lime (though I'm debating on changing her last name to something with the same ring about it). I'm making her for a short film I'm going to make for a school assignment, though I don't know if I'm going to do any good at it... I may end up RQing the whole thing and just drawing out a storyboard or something else. Anyway, I'll upload a picture of her once I've finished making her! Here she is: [/babble] |

Oh, she's cute. What's the assignment? Eh, my game is rather boring, as usual. It hasn't gotten a good playing in at least a year now. My only custom neighborhood (the pre-mades are all untouched) is the one that I use for taking pictures of my clothing. It's very crowded, as you can see: At the moment, these are the current inhabitants of that lot, as moved in last night. I was taking test shots of the Sims, but got frustrated and stopped, and that's why they're still in the game (usually I like to keep my game/downloads folder completely empty): Here they are. I was just experimenting with creating them in the beginning, but I think that I may be using them for something now. The one on the right is kind of pretty: And there's the reason why I don't use this computer for stories or for playing. That blurring happens if I switch between live and build/buy mode too often or if I go into the family photo album. To be honest, I'm in a bit of a need for a new computer. |

Wow, I never saw a computer blur like that before! They're really pretty sims though.  There's not much happening in my game. I created a bunch of new families (I seem to do that a lot...) but I have no pictures of them (sorry  ). In my Corria household, Heidi had kittens with one of my created cats. They're named Smokey, Bluebell, and Jasmine. Also, Storme and Jace are still going out. And Cole still doesn't like it. ...And I built a new house. I'm actually kind of proud of it.  |

The assignment was for Religion, talking about how the Eucharist is important in some way. We could present it however we liked and I decided to make a Sims video at the time, but in the end I actually just made a comic strip featuring the cartoon Spongebob Squarepants.
I honestly love your Sims though Samantha. If you ever felt like you had a spare few cluttering up your family bin and you aren't going to use them for anything IF IT'S NOT TOO MUCH you should upload them. I'd download them all in a heartbeat!
That sucks that your computer does that though. I don't know how I'd survive if mine did that to me :/.
Also, jealous of your house LadyofShalott! I honestly wish I could make pretty looking houses, but when I try they usually end up crazy big and way too spaced out, or just simply way too small. I'm never satisfied with how my lots end up looking like. Those kittens are just too cute! Adorable!
I haven't had much happening in my Sims 2 game either. What with juggling school, homework, work and other things, it's been pretty busy! When I have spare time I usually play Sims Medieval though, which I actually really like.

I'd download them all in a heartbeat! Really? Aw, thank you! I'll totally upload them; it's no problem. I'll probably never use them again. Yeah, really bad graphics card. My computer's rather old (it has a Windows 98 processor in it), and even my other computer, which I use for taking pictures for my stories, has a shot graphics card. But that one takes so long to load that when I minimize and maximize the game in between screen shots, the graphics, like, reset or something. I don't survive well. The bad graphics cards are the reason why I can't really play for fun, because I don't want my Sims to live in a world that's a big huge blur. I suck at building houses, too, Caitlin. But I love the wall colors you chose for that house, LadyofShalott. |

FINALLY got around to some playtime in my game: So, I've fell in love with Samantha's Sim and so I decided I'd start a new neighbourhood (which is beautifully grungified) with her. I named her Ramona Barr, since I wanted to name one of her children Candy Barr for some reason. ANYWAY, here she is pedalling away on her exercise bike -->  I've fallen completely and totally in love with her. She makes the most adorable faces at times and I just can't help but go gah-gah over every little thing she does. She made the most adorable face when she failed miserably at making a pottery plate!   She also got a parrot named Skittle (original, I know). He annoys the hell out of me all the time because he's always squaking, but she seems to enjoy his company so I can't bare to take him away   She had a one-night stand and ending up pregnant (wonder how that happened... >_>) she ended up having the most BEAUTIFUL girl I have ever seen (named Candy Barr, hahaha). I'll be sure to add a photo later of her, but I think she's just gorge! [/babble] |

Ohh! I'm so jealous of you. I've never been good a building neighbourhoods because I'm awful at decorating + building lots. It looks good so far! In my game I've started another family (surprising) which I was debating on whether or not to do a Rainbow legacy. Her name is Strawberry Rainbow, and I downloaded her from here. With this lot I also wanted to practice my decorating skills because I want to start working on them. It was impossible with the low funds, though, so I have to wait until the house rolls in a little more dough. Lastly, I gave La Shawn a makeover because her looks were really bothering me (I usually dislike the Meg hair on girls). Then Strawberry was all hearts for her so I'm guessing she'll be the person to pop out babies with Strawberry :P. Thats how my game is going so far :) |

;D wow everyone is so talented!!! Candy Barr inspired me to make a sorority house (let me explain). The girls who started the greek houses names are Cookie Doe, Win Doe, and their friend Mulan. They are level 4 and have 15 members (Only 4 live in there right now). I will upload some pics. I've also started to create a fraternity house for males. (again I will upload pics when I finish)

Zoe, I want your amazing house-building skills ;O! Thanks! The house ended up getting deleted because I wanted to "start fresh," and my game wouldn't load, so... meh. Sad that I lost it. |

I actually do have a few shots, if you want to take the time to look through them  There isn't much going on in my game right now because I haven't really seriously played it for weeks. I'm attempting to build a few characters from random stuff in bodyshop, but I haven't even gotten time to do much of that. |

School was cancelled today for snow, so I got to play my game again. I did week-long rotations for the siblings of generation two of my patriarchy. Unfortunately, I forgot to take pictures of the heir, but I got his two sisters.  That's the younger sister, Anne. She has a three-bolt chemistry with this guy, which I think I've only had happen once before. It's too bad she's a romance Sim with the LTW to woohoo with 20 different Sims (he was number seven), otherwise I'd have them marry.  That's her older sister, Abigail, with her boyfriend. I can't decide if I want them to marry or not. Abigail and Anne are enemies, because Abigail's current boyfriend had dated Anne back in college and it got kind of messy.  And there's Anne visiting Abigail's salon. It's a level three business, I think. |
