Hello there! Hope you don't mind me mass liking all your posts! :P My simming itch is back and I now must consume all the sims. If you don't mind and it isn't too hard to find, could you please tell me where I could find the floral tile as seen in /post/181375364342?

Haha, not at all! I was excited to see your name pop up in my notifs again. :D How’ve you been?

This gorgeous floral tile is part of a set by Atticbox, and there’s a link to some matching wallpapers in that post. :)

Do you still have the sims from your Who's Your Daddy challenge? I know it was forever ago but I'm rereading through it now and realized you did spawn some real cuties and would be interested in downloaded a few not already up.

I’m so sorry I didn’t respond to this sooner but Tumblr never let me know I had a new message! I’m so happy someone is actually looking at my old stuff. :D I only have a few Sims saved from that challenge and they were all requests. Here’s the list.

It’s not huge, but I was going by popular demand at the time. I didn’t save more than what is listed there, unfortunately.

Such a cute family! They all go so well together with their pinks and blues. I'm glad nobody was too upset over Niko's death still--while he was kind of sleazy, he was important in their lives!

I think the sadness wore off in one day and now they’re happy again! I mean Velma was never sad to begin with XD I love this family! :D

Everyone is cute! And I agree, it's a strange feeling to see Velma as an elder. At least she is still recognizable! xD

They are! Haha, I’ll never give up her style :P

Yeah, I get to get my Velma dose !

Yaaaaay! :D

Such a cute little home! ❤️

I love their house! Actually they would have enough money to move to a bigger one, but I decided to expand it a bit instead, because I’m so attached to this lot :D

Sims meme

Thank you for tagging me, @taylors-simblr !

When did you start playing Sims?

2007-ish? I was babysitting my neighbours’ handicapped son with his older sister, my best friend, (I was asked because my mom works in special ed... I have no idea why they thought that would qualify me, an eleven-year-old...) and she showed me that game she’s been playing: The Sims 2. I was hooked, borrowed the base game and bought Nightlife so I could play it on our ancient family PC. Played that on that one until Sims 3 came out and I wished for a laptop for Christmas so I could play Sims 3. Played it for like 2 months and then went back to Sims 2.

Have you been playing consistently or do you have breaks inbetween?

More or less consistently. There were some breaks whenever my laptops died, but I always came back. I don’t think there’s ever been a break that was longer than 2-3 months.

Do your family & friends know that you play The Sims?

Some do. My immediate family knows, of course. I don’t run around advocating that I play the Sims, but when I click with someone (or am close friends with them)... sure, it does come up.

Do you spend more time in build or live mode? Why?

Live mode, for sure. I’m slowly getting better at building and decorating, but for a long time, I just couldn’t stand it.

Do you play with supernatural creatures (like Vampires, Werewolves etc.)? Why not?

Well, there’s a witch, two plantsims and an alien in Middleground, so you tell me.

No, but really, I love playing the supernaturals. I think they add interest to the game. I’m especially fond of the vampires in this game (I like the concept of vampires in general- the more traditional ones, at least), mostly because they were the first supernaturals I’ve been introduced to. Although their immortality might pose a problem in multigenerational gameplay...)

Do you have one specific family you play with all the time (like a legacy of some sort) or do you rotate between a couple of households?

I got into rotational play pretty early on. I was enthralled of all the stories about huge cities full of Sims (I also got into the community pretty early- the German one, that is- although I’ve always been more of a lurker). I’ve tried legacies at times, but could never stick to it (what do I do with the spares?).

Do you like to create your own neighborhoods or do you play with the existing families? Tell us about your progress :)

I like not having to build a neighbourhood, but sometimes I do. Most of the time, though, I take an existing neighbourhood and just modify it to fit my needs.

I almost always use existing Sims. Whether that means playing in premade neighbourhoods like Veronaville, Strangetown or even neighbourhoods like the amazing Viper Canyon by meetmetotheriver, or just use premade Sims, like didilysims extracted College Sims, the Pleasantview townies (like in Middleground, duh), or even downloaded Sims like hambergersims that have a connection to the premade Sims. I’m just a big fan of Eaxis genetics, it seems.

Do you create custom content? If so, what keeps you motivated? (If not, would you like to? What stops you from learning it? For players that don’t use mods, why do you stay away from CC?) 

Not really. I sometimes upload a Sim or a house (very sporadically). I’m able to delete sandals from a Maxis mesh, but that’s about it. I think it would be a pretty cool skill to have, but I don’t really have the time to learn it. I’d much rather play the game.

If there was one piece of CC or (if you play without mods) one piece you wish the developers implemented, what would it be?

Only one piece, huh? Hm... maybe a subhood for supernaturals (that counts like one piece, right?). Someplace where they can do things connected to their supernatural state?

What other expansion and/or accessoires pack do you wish the developers would have come out with?

Uff... generally speaking, I would love if there was more generational stuff. It would be nice to have more activities for the different ages. I’ve read this on a couple other Sims memes and I can only agree with it. 

Lastly, tag 5 of your favorite simblrs!

And as always I’m late to the party. I know quite a few of you already did this... I’ll just tag a few of those that show up in my recent activities. So, @simspressionism , @lilleputtu , @mooseabides , @littleblondesim and @hexagonal-bipyramid , tell us about your playstyle (if you haven’t already and feel like it)!

penig replied to your photoset “Happy Mothers Day!!”

In my country Mother's Day is in May, but I'll celebrate whenever you like.

littleblondesim replied to your photoset “Happy Mothers Day!!”

May I ask where you're from? Here in the United States, Mother's Day is in May, like penig said.

I’m in the UK, our Mothers Day is always on the fourth Sunday of Lent and was originally about returning to your mother church after abstaining from sins for Lent (not anything to do with mums at all). Of course now it’s been turned into a day to celebrate mums and grandmas and I’m pretty sure that most people don’t know about the church thing.

   You can never have too much kitchen/food clutter.    

It’s arguably the best kind of clutter? (Kidding, every kind of clutter is the best kind of clutter.)

Their house is gorgeous! *_* The red + orange and the dark roof looks sooooo good.

Thanks! Normally when I build and decorate I use money cheats and source inspiration images. Since I don’t do money cheats in Brightmaple (besides the loan system I came up with which is more limited), I had to think of some way to keep the decorating fun for me still, so each household got a colour palette! Theirs is orange, red and navy. But the navy is represented inside the house. :)

It's a bit boxy (not in a bad way!) and the Tetris cubes too made Game Cube first pop into my head. Thought that's probably copyrighted. ;)

Maybe do a punny take on "Game of Thrones" or something? I can't think of anything off the top of my head, though...

Thanks for the suggestions! For the time being I called it “Games World” which is better than the placeholder lot name it had before. If I think of something I love, I can always change it!

That is a very cute barista!

She’s the product of some custom face templates and default replacement hairs I suppose! She’s even got a cute name too, Esmee. (with an accent over the middle “e” I can’t be bothered to figure out how to type on a keyboard).

Those sims are really gorgeous! They look strangely human compared to other sims if that makes sense. Very realistic. lol

Thank you! I guess my style is Maxis Match but not exactly cartoony, I like making them look like people somewhat!

“Time for Whitney’s birthday! She ages up into the most adorable...”

That hair is adorable. I need more toddler/child-friendly hairs...

I have made a concerted effort recently to be on the lookout for good toddler/child hairstyles so I’ve got a decent selection now! But I’m always on the prowl for more. That goes double for styles that work for black Sims as I like them to have their natural hair, especially as children.

This looks so cute and cozy!! I love all kinds of snow, this is my favorite time of year :3

Snow is just such a pain here haha it’s all wet and mushy and no one can drive in it! Luckily so far we haven’t gotten a lot, and today it’s just raining! But I do really love Sim snow.

I’m the same way - that mesh is just an absolute triumph! I can’t stop making and downloading recolours for it!

I think sloppy Sims leave the TV on, if I'm remembering right. If you've got any of them lying about. :P

“Baby time is almost here and Kira is just waiting and ready. Finally,...”

Awww! It is always the bathroom, isn't it? :P Totally unrelated, but their house looks *amazing*. Love the modern look.

The bathroom seems to be the preferred birthing venue! And thank you! I found a floorplan online that had that basic layout with the wrap around porch at the front, and then I think a little more poking around found me the idea for the front roofline and all the windows, as well as the trellis type things up front! It would probably be a good vacation home layout too.
