It looks fantastic! :)

Thank You all! <3

Ohhh, pretty! Will we be getting closeup shots of the individual lots? I'm particularly interested in the garden since I'm supposed to be making one myself but I'm kinda stumped for ideas...

Yep, I also struggle with gardens and I stole my ideas directly from the garden at Hampton Court in this case. 

It’s nothing super special, but I’ll post pics soon though, there are just SO many to take...

It looks perfect! So there’s no substitute for computer term papers?

Not that I’m aware of, but I don’t mind it! It’s satisfying watching them suffer through that part of college life ;) And thanks!

withlovefromayre replied to your photo “And, this…this is what I’m working on now. Still very much a WIP and I...”

Woot! You are about to crown a monarch, awesome!

I knowwwwww! It’s only taken 3, almost 4 years of playing for me to reach this far! I’m in the process of shopping for crowns as we speak and already have my King ready to go thanks to @esotheria-sims​ :) I’m excited! I have to say, I haven’t fully thought through what the duties of a monarch will be, but I’m pretty sure I’ll come up with something!

This has such a warm and lively feeling to it. When I saw the first picture I felt like I stepped right into it.

Thank you.  I struggled a lot with that build.  I’m glad it came across well.

esotheria-sims replied to your photoset “The King’s Hunting Lodge Owned Community Lot Part 1”

Just gorgeous. I love your Eowerrania builds! ❤

Thank you so much.  I am glad you are enjoying them!

minu-mercuti replied to your photoset “The King’s Hunting Lodge Owned Community Lot Part 1”

Oh I love this lot!

Thank you so much!

the disease mod looks really interesting

As much as I love ‘Realistic Sickness’, I needed a break.  It will be interesting to see if anyone dies from the disease mod... So far they are all getting better!

woot!!

I know, although I felt very cheaty using the Genie money to get there!

snarkysims replied to your photoset

Hi. I've been admiring that toddler hair in your pics for days now, but I haven't had any luck finding it. Do you know where I could find it?

I’m having trouble opening Body Shop to take a look, but I will keep trying and will let you know.

Teeeeeeeaaaaaas ��

Yep!  She will be specializing in the fertility, virility, miscarriage, invirility, infertility, and twin teas.  She will also continue her work as a midwife.  I can’t wait to cycle back to her so I can play her!

anachronisims replied to your photoset “Wigulf is hoping for another boy!”

Gorgeous! Is this after you tweaked graphics settings?

I think the last few pictures were actually taken after the ‘fall’ season started, so that is fall lighting.  All of the pictures from this family were taken after I applied different graphics settings, though.

criminalmiik replied to your photoset “Pop”

�� thats some interesting cloth! Lol

I wish she would *bump* in her nightgown, but oh well!

anachronisims replied to your photoset “Edwyna and Anwyn head to the Village Green to learn some skills and...”

So much greener a green than in Jerarevia! ��

I do love the different environments in these ‘hoods.  I think each one is my favourite!

mortia replied to your photo “Outtakes from the Christmas shoot, Part 2”

Hahahahaha

Glad you liked that one!  She almost killed the entire family with that meal.  Merry Christmas!

ratfantasy-sims replied to your photoset “Oswyn grown up and made over. He gained the traits ‘Heavy Sleeper’ and...”

Oh he is extra cute

Isn’t he just?!

anachronisims replied to your photoset “Those mushroom faces!”

I’ve got at least a couple posts like this queued for Y1D3 �� They ARE adorable!

I love the mushrooms... and the mushroom faces!

mortia replied to your photoset “~ Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night ~”

yay!

Indeed!

Replies + “smoke window” WCIF

Votes are unanimous: the dais stays! (Does that rhyme or not? dais is one of those dictionary-words for me that I often read but rarely pronounce...) 

Thank you guys for replying! Tumblr is so much more fun when you have a little bit of conversation. I like to get to know you all through your words ♥ So here are a few words in return.... for @ophidiae @squeezleprime @niamh-sims @duyska @withlovefromayre.

@ophidiae replied to your photoset “Spot the differences ^^ I rebuilt the Thorne Manor Hall! It just...”

I like the dais!

Yay! Thank you!

I like the idea of having room for a musician :)

Thank you! I am a musician in RL, in a duo with my boyfriend and we’re always looking for gigs. When I told him I’d built a manor hall he replied: “Nice! Can we play there?” -- so needless to say I immediately went back in and added the dais! Maybe someday our Simself ancestors can play there ^^

@niamh-sims replied

I love the smoke window (can I ask WCIF, please?) and I do really like the dais. I can't wait to see more of the manor!

Thank youu! I realised it’s the first time I shared some inside pics of Arianburh and actually at all, in a very long time! All those neighbourhood pics and house building can also grow old after a while. *laughs* Zooming in from there, I’m getting closer and closer to the Sims themselves. I’ll be glad if I can share more with you, also of the inhabitants!

The “smoke window” is here, along with some other nice roof decorations: http://adelana-sims.blogspot.com/2017/03/sims-2_26.html#more

I like it better with the dais too, smoke windows is a great touch :)

Thank you! :) I was inspired by the discussion of smoke, chimneys/no chimneys and the placement of the hearth in the resource that I linked to in my post. There’s a picture where you can see a window high up that looks a bit like this window I found in my catalogue.

@withlovefromayre replied

I bet the inside window looks cool from the walkway. I like the addition of the dais

Thank you! And it does!

Also trying out an open window:

withlovefromayre replied to your post: I think the chat animations in TS2 are a little...

I noticed this too. Now that I have Almighty Hat’s religion mod in the game, my sims are disagreeing a lot more :-). So I don’t know if it was there before and I just didn’t notice it.

It must have been there before. I haven’t been using the religion mod in this iteration of Kulo Seeri, so it’s probably either a minor issue in the game itself (or one of its EPs) or a minor issue in another mod. I suspect the former, but there’ll be storms in Yala* before I take all my mods out to confirm that ;) Thanks for your comment!

*In the Seeriverse, Yala is the land of plenty where the Nuidya ancestors reside, and it’s protected from those sneaky storm demons. Yes, I used a metaphor from my Sims’ world. I also can’t get through a day without yelling “Sena Yuleng!” when my computer freezes or I stub my toe. :P

withlovefromayre mentioned you on a post “Here’s my new lot called Forest’s Edge. It’s just over the wall behind...”

@plath-sims a kennel for purebred hunting dogs is a great idea��

If you happen to build one definitely tag me, because I’d love to see it!

[retromaisie]

Congratulations to you and your daughters on your cookie-selling record! :-) I was wondering, WCIF the vase with blossom twigs and the metal thing on the mantelpiece in your "I'm back" post?

skyburned said: That is an astonishing amount of cookies!           

withlovefromayre said: Woot!  Impressive cookie sales!  So glad you are back!                            

Thank you for the congratulations everyone! :) The girls busted their bums for sure, and I’m very happy to have my house back, all those cookies took up a ton of space! It’s good to see you Shannon back on tumblr @withlovefromayre :)

The vase was converted by maron here. The globe is by Anye, I did not readily find the file available for download. There is a thread at SimsCave here, and it could very well be there. However, I don’t have the time to look. Here is the globe file by itself here.

THe house looks so good. I love your decorating style. I didn’t know you ever played Strangetown��

I’ve actually played all of the hoods to some extent, both in and out of uberhoods. This was the last time I played the uberhood but I played one for a while before Sullivan too. It was a while before I finally realised I liked playing my own sims more than I liked playing anyone else’s! I still have a soft spot for stories featuring the premades, although I don’t play them myself any more. :) 

starrsim replied to your photoset “@starrsim might remember this one! This was from the same challenge,...”

I do! Crazy how now the kids are grown with kids of their own

I know! It doesn’t seem like that long ago!

Definitely going to find the opportunity to try and try again ;)

Feli's baby is going to be so cute! Hope she conceives!

parystrange replied to your photo “I’ve graduated Feli to a big girl bed purely for the sake of producing...”

She's so lovely, I can't wait to see what any babies look like <3

I have to say I am overly excited to see what a baby of Felice’s would look like cause I adore her, but if there’s one thing I’ve discovered it’s that TS2 can throw you some serious genetic curve balls! Hahahah!

plath-sims replied to your post “I see Tumblr is still doing that shit where it flags half your posts...”

That's crazy! By habit I tend to checked the 'review' tab for anything that gets flagged, so far I've only had one that was insta-flagged of Enrica serving sandwiches, but 60!?

That was just from my random “tag fishing”. And NONE of these were under the Review Flagged Posts link. I’ve had the same two in there since they started this nonsense. If you don’t specifically use the popup scrolling feed on the right, you will literally never know that things have been flagged

...actually, all of my flagged stuff was from a while ago, so I wonder if they’re still flagging current stuff? Does it pop up on your main dashboard?

In any case, even if you think you’re good with your old posts, you might be surprised to find there’s more flagged than you imagined. 

withlovefromayre replied to your post “I see Tumblr is still doing that shit where it flags half your posts...”

60 posts! And when I saw your note, thought it was Feli in the buff (after you bought her the double bed)! The Affineurs were censored for drying salt fully dressed.

Thanks for that, I laughed right out loud. That sexy salt! 

davinaojeda replied to your post “I see Tumblr is still doing that shit where it flags half your posts...”

Yeah, for real. They just stealthily flag posts. It's infuriating

I’m still seething about it hours later, lol
