Tonight, I used part of my Birthday money and some of my earnings to upgrade my Photobucket account to Pro, considering I ran out of bandwidth again in less than 24 hours. This time I went with a full year renewal because it is much cheaper than monthly payments in the long term (as I did back then) and this way I can forget about this issue until August 2012 :D.

So, yup, this site has all the preview pics back. I will even make a new banner to spice things up a bit. I changed the layout a few weeks ago and completely revamped the tag system (it's now a complete list sorted by categories on the right sidebar), so you can now easily find everything I've ever done.

I am not upgrading my Mediafire account, though. That would be too expensive for me and so far it hasn't been necessary. I just hope Mediafire never decides to add a timer for each download like 4share... that would be annoying and I'd definitely look for a new host then.

I really appreciate all your supportive messages after my last announcement, including your incredibly generous offers to host my pics. Thank you SO much, but don't worry, I'm sure this purchase is more than enough to keep this small site running from now on :).

Just *please* refrain from hotlinking my pictures. Pro account or not that is not nice at all (it is stealing in a way) and it's what forced me to acquire this upgrade. Thanks!

And with this entry, I am done re-creating the Sims 1 versions of the Sims 2 Pleasantview's families.

Next stop in my Predecessor Project: Strangetown! :P

This is the 3rd part of my Sims 1 and 3 characters' project. I was not going to continue with this project for now, but a comment from [profile] selenecorvino inspired me to tackle this again. She linked me to an entry in the Wikia with a link to zip created by someone named Callista that contained cleaned and extracted versions of pretty much every single dead pre-made character from the Base Game. I told her I would try them out and, considering I had a free afternoon today, I did it earlier than expected :D

Thank you so much, [profile] selenecorvino! This project has become easier than ever thanks to your link. The characters work all right, by the way, because they are cleaned clones. They are safe to use and I tried them out in both Bodyshop and in-game.

So, with these extracted characters as my base, I set to work on the next Sims 1 families from Pleasantview. I think that once I'm done with these I'll move on to Strangetown :D.

Due to financial issues (not too severe, but right now I'm not in the position to splurge on hobbies) I had to cancel both my Mediafire and Photobucket accounts for Simlish Creations. I was able to pay for both of them for almost two years, so I think that was a good run for a small Custom Content site :D

It seems that my Mediafire account was not affected by the downgrade, because most of my individual files are small (less than 5 Mb each) and I currently don't have so many downloads.

However, Photobucket locked my account due to bandwidth issues two days after I began my "cycle". I have no freaking idea why I have drained 10Gb worth of bandwidth in such a short amount of time (I hope no one is hotlinking my pics elsewhere), but this means that there won't be preview pics of most of my stuff until the 24th.

I am trying to upload my new pics on LJ Scrapbook from now on, but I won't go back and change ALL my pics because that would be insane.

I apologize for the inconvenience!

These were not made by me, but that doesn't stop me from pimping them on my site <3

I received my Christmas in July present last week. I was so happy, because my Santee, Sarang, made recolors of virtually everything I was hoping to have in my game like:

- Tons of Toddler clothing (PJs and Formal clothing)
- Formal Clothing for Children
- Formal Clothing for teen males and adult males
- Sofa recolors
- Toy recolors from Maxis Meshes
- The cutest set of Rugs ever!
- And even Pre-made Sims portraits.

I was SO spoiled this Summer! :)

Here's a preview pic:

I really love Garden of Shadows, because it constantly motivates people to create innovative stuff, no matter your skills or experience.

Unlike the other big sites, GOS still considers the Sims 2 Community pretty much alive, even two years after the release of the Sims 3. Who needs Maxis/EA when we still get the equivalent of whole EPs/SPs worth of nice quality and amazing stuff each month (with the themes, for example)?

I am so glad with my experience this Summer with the Christmas in July exchange. Both the present I got from Sarang and the opportunity to create for voleste were amazing and very fun. I hope I have the time/opportunity to participate next time :).

So, since Voleste has kindly shared her present at GOS, I'd like to send you guys there too: This is her post at the CiJ thread.

Due to space constraints, I sent her small preview pictures of the things I made, squishing three hairs or fours posters per picture. Below you'll get to see the original pictures, including both the hairs and the full sized posters :) 

I. Harry Potter Posters


Dumbledore's Army (Well, part of it)
Recolor of the Civic Idol Poster from the Base Game.
Credits: Black0rchid for the location (Fairy Town aka Hogsmeade), Wicked Poppies for Harry and Hermione (all the Sims used had their CC changed to be more Maxis Matchy), Cloudlessnights for the Uniforms, Voleste herself for Luna's hair.

Cross-posted from my journal. For some reason I completely forgot to add this to Simlish Creations until now :S




By now you must be aware that my CC preview pictures are the laziest ones you've ever seen, right?

Ever since I downloaded Mixedup's Screenshot Background Rug, I became even lazier, because I no longer had to build a room or wall in front of which I had to place my "models". I now only had to plop my magic rug, place the sim on it and voila! Instant pretty preview!

However, I am now bored of using just white as my default background (because the black background hid my black hair recolors and the other three colors included with the original file were quite ugly), so I decided to recolor the screenshot rug in many bright, happy colors.

So I used Pooklet's actions for that purpose :). And I also included some other colors that I thought were missing, like a darker orange, red and green. This is really a very simple piece of CC, but now that I took some pictures of a sim for pixel_trade, I loved my new colorful screenshots.

Hence I'm sharing my express recolors with you :).

Under the cut you'll find more examples (modeled by the adorable Simbaa, made by [profile] upendoaushi for the Person Below me challenge):
