I went S3toS2 conversion download crazy. Now I'm a little worried my laptop will explode. HC's Creation has some great stuff, plus I got an insane amount of recolors from GOS.

I think I'm creating a TS3-TS2 hybrid that will probably take two whole hours to load! So many awesome things, thank you so much for sharing those links :D

I know what you mean! I've downloaded so many conversions from TS3 that sometimes I get disoriented in TS2 like "Wait, what the frak am I playing right now?".

I've started an "on hold" downloads folder, just because I don't want to break my game before the contest ends with all the new stuff.

I'll just have to break it later, haha.

I should not have looked. -_- I now have 39 thousand files. I really must weed through things.

Sorry you guys still don't have your scores. Hopefully we'll have them up tomorrow. I was going to say I am extending the round till Saturday, when I realized that the first post says you have till next Friday anyway, which was not what it was supposed to say. It was only supposed to be one week per round, so I'm sorry if it confused anyone, but as the first round was only one week, I want to keep this at one week (with an extra day because of late scores). If anyone was thrown off by my posting the wrong deadline, let me know I'll extend it even more for you! So sorry!

That's okay, I just hope Croutonian got her tooth seen to.

I saw that date and wondered about it. I'd rather not wait another whole week to find out which house we are doing next.

@GlorianaGlowbee: I have that mod in that takes away all of the red and I had a terrible time in this tiny, tiny house taking photo's too. I am used to the cammeraman mode now, but....... in tiny spaces I am fortunate to get one good photo in. I think I have improved but it isn't easy as you said and it was the part I dreaded the most too. lol You did a great job! I love your house too!! Oh, I found out how to put roofs on, it was easy. lol I have learned so much in this contest. I am so glad I was able to join. I took some photo's of my sims and posted them on FB. Cammeraman mode works wonders to show off your sims. One of them has on a new lipstick I created. So many of you have shared your knowledge and links. I am truly grateful and you are always inspiring. Thank you!!!
Doing all the things, and *mostly* not failing.

Well, it took me all day, but I have combed through my entire downloads. Every single mesh, every single recolor. (edit: wait, non inclusive of bodyshop) Of the 3500 files I downloaded yesterday, only 1800 remain. My downloads folder is sitting at a pretty 1.95gb. There is a two page tiny spaced two column list of things that I need to edit in simpe; most is just in a stupid category, others require repo linking. I like my folder to run lean and mean. Does anyone else do this?

Lucia940, to get pictures in the tiny rooms, sometimes I delete the wall that I'm backing up into just for the photo so I can get further from it. Just make sure to press undo!

jones, I'm getting pretty antsy on those scores, will they be up soonish? I'm sure I'm not the only one waiting on doing the next house until they see their scores and how the judges feel about our decorating tastes, but we are running out of time for this round!

I am so envious of all the technically talented people in this contest! I have been able to download some patterns, but more advanced pieces I am still having problems. I review the tuts and follow the instructions, but it still isn't working.

But, I have been blessed with tenacity and will keep trying



*edited because writer has gotten a little confused between the TS2 and TS3 contests she is in.

Phae, I'm hoping to have them up tomorrow. I will extend the round at least one full day past when the scores are posted. Sorry it's taking so long I would be one waiting for the scores also, so I understand.

Hahahahahaha, looking back at the first page, maybe I should have made this a rule Would have saved on the WCIFs, lol.

Ahaha! Then we'd all totally need two weeks per lot. One week to create the lot and list, and one week to track down all the links online, haha.

Still here lurking, still loving all the entries, still... resisting looking at all the WCIFs! If I look my Downloads folder could end up twice the size it is already...

I missed Croutonian's post about her tooth, but I too hope it's been sorted - I know the last time one of my wisdom teeth played up I was taking the maximum dose of ibuprofen available OTC, and that only dampened it down to a tolerable level...

No need to use my full name, "Selly" will do just fine.

I'm doubly sorry now as I found another item from a pay site.. I thought I was being carful but obviously not. I don't have my game running and it's the house that is from the first round. A toaster that I thought was BPS is TSR. I'll get my game running and change that as soon as I can, but it will take awhile.

joandsarah was it pay from TSR? If it was free and not from a Featured Artist, it can stay.

The wall might have been free, the toaster I'm not too sure. I actually thought we weren’t allowed to use TSR stuff at all, so that's good to know. I'll check out if it's free or not although as I have some free time this morning it may be simpler to load up (20+ minutes) and retake the picture of the kitchen.

No it's cashcraft. I've retaken the kitchen and overhead picture and edited my post.

Phaenoh: I appreciate the information. The rooms as you know are TINY! lol I would have to remember to press undo. I will keep this in mind so I can get into those tight spaces. I can't even imagine how I got the pictures I did get. Where's the undo button?? lol I swear, I have never done a contest like this, but it's fun. A bit stressful, but fun. I have learned from everyone, and have downloaded some of your things and others. Now I am trying to ignore the WCIF posts. lol Thank you again!! I do however want to know where I can find those dishes in the drainer that Lipe uses all the time. lol :P
