Whee!...lovely pics ! I *must* have that 9 box shelf in my game...I might need to look into making it. Wouldn't it look adorable in the game? And the art in the yellow pic...I've made paintings by that artist I think...for S2. Do you know who it could be...my folders are a dreadful combination of mess and lack of documentation Thank you for pics...sigh...I know what you mean about not being able to live in a place that looks a certain way. There are so many styles I love and I know I couldn't live with them...too cold...to rigid...to neat...too colorful...too "can't find anything"...too cluttery. But still I enjoy looking at them all and re-making them in my game.

NP Timmer...I can't wait to see your pics when you get some time to post them

You mean the painting in the restaurant? I did not see it first, but yes it looks very familiar. I would think if so it could be in old Avalon from the time you recolored, but I can't enter the site at the moment. Or can it be that Zarrie made such a painting once?... I don't get it together at the moment.

The 9 tiled thingy would be great to have ingame, what I think when regarding your new shelves, it could be a great part of it, like when it would have the same depth maybe it could be used together, I don't know what you think of this?

Juli that is a very interesting idea. I need to think about how to go about it. It would need to be perfectly sized so that it took exactly two tiles I think...a single tile would not be enough and any more that wasn't two would make it so it didn't meet the shelving. Perhaps the shelf that is three levels up would be the right height for it. Even if I can't make that work so it's visually pleasing I still want to make that shelf though...I love it and it looks do-able in S3 channel and slot-wise.

It came to me that I've done recolors with other works by the artist whose painting is in the restaurant and they're posted in the Muse Cafe here.

Avalon was down earlier today because my cat disconnected my server (*again*) while I was at work. I've got several so I don't even know who to blame...lol. Anyway, it should be back up now along with Indigo.

Don't feel pressed in any way OM - it was just an idea that came suddenly to my mind. I so wish I could test the shelves. Do you think they are base-game compatible? Because I have the basegame left on the older computer. It is just that the graphics aren't good but at least it would work to test a bit around with them.

[orangemittens]

They are base game compatible for sure. They were made with an unpatched base game installed and are compatible with any game regardless of expansion or patch-status. All my objects to date are base game compatible and made on a patch-free machine. They were all either fixed with Delphy's tool or made with the up-to-date version of s3oc/s3pe so they will not cause blue lotting.

OM, dear - such a long time I have not been here, I hope you are fine? I've seen all of your updates and adore them, been specially in love with the international rug collection and the framed Ray Cesar paintings. Isn't he great though some of his paintings are really disturbing? (oh and if you ever feel like using the gabbeh texture for Sims3 rugs - just do so - no questioning neccessary).

I have seen the green mug and red book deco in your pics, which was such a fav of mine - but I couldn't find it for download, haven't you published it yet?

Until now I haven't got your packages in my game (downloaded them all though - they all await my attention!), my system refuses to work with delphy's installer, but I've heard with ambitions this is all over and I should be able to load the packages simply into the game. I hope this is true! I have bought but not installed it yet, there are some houses resting I wanted to finish before. Do you have the ep and use it?

For the rl - the situation is still the same, not so easy to get around with the illness of my mother. I so wish she could finally go to sleep, she so suffers, I know it sounds terrible but I wish it was over, I can't see it any longer and she can't stand it any longer but is oviously not in enough peace with the world to leave it. It would be such a release. As I already said people would name you an animal torturer if you would not bring a pet to sleep that suffers like this, but for the human there is no legal chance, at least here.

All my hugs, Juli

I hate spammers - lol - no matter how they try to do their work.
Was there no way to find an adult and honorable job for you?

[orangemittens]

Lol, I hate spammers too and I delete all the spam posts here I can find. I was late getting to that one because I've just been so busy in RL this past week. It's gone now though

I'm so sorry to hear that your mother is ill and I wish there was something more helpful or supportive I can say. It sounds like a very difficult and painful situation for both of you.

The book and mug are posted at Indigo in the objects section. If you still can't find them let me know and I will send them on to you.

Hugs back to you Juli
