was it true that he had hard hands?

First off, the August founders are up at pixel_trade - check them out here. I submitted Appomattox and Shiloh, both named after Civil War battles, because... well, why not, right?

My fav is the laundry room!!:) I like the whole vibe of it but yeah, it's really not a great view but most laundry rooms don't have a great view...a dilemma to be sure!:P

Decals for the win!!! I abuse the mess out of them too!

Shiloh is adorable btw!!

[charterzard]

Thank you! I like the laundry room too, but yeah, the view thing. Ah well.

I'm glad you liked Shiloh. It's weird how different she looks without CC!

I love your sims, I've downloaded them all so far and I was very excited to see more from you in the founder collection. :D

I love how you've used those wall vines.. the green ones, the brown ones, the golden-yellow ones.
I think I like the laundry room best because to me it looks the most real.. it reminds me of my own basement. But I'm also quite a fan of the little girl's room because I love all the little-kid clutter in there.

[charterzard]

Thanks! I love your sims, too, but you know that already XD

I absolutely looove those vines... they're so unrealistic (like, who has ivy IN their house?) but that's why I like decorating in Sims - it doesn't matter if things are a little "off."

I LOVE the laundry room and I think you do too - perhaps put a big screen/clear sliding double door into it and then you get your view that way? Almost all the laundries I've ever had have had big windows & big clear doors out into the back yard.

You can go mad with outdoor laundry decor and enclosed fences with ivy and such on them then. Maybe even stick some kids out there playing - skies the limit on the view from the laundry door. :D

[charterzard]

I have taken your advice - I put in a sliding door and just put clutter in front of it, like no one really uses it much. Eh, maybe I shouldn't have been doing this while watching "Hoarders: Buried Alive."

Anyway, thanks - I think it looks better now.

[bondchick_nett]

Bwahahaa! I bet it looks freaken awesome, have you entered it now? *goes to look in the GoS thread...* :D

[charterzard]

Since a few other people put up their entries, I finally posted mine, here. I'm super nervous because it's... sort of bright? IDK. It's not very GoS-y, compared to the other entries, which look like the inside of a nervous breakdown to me :/

SHILOH IS GOING IN MY GAME RIGHT NOW.

CAPS LOCK IS STUCK.

Those rooms are gawgeous, btw. If you uploaded your downloads folder and your lots, I would totally risk game crashing for it. (now if you'll excuse me, I must be off to look for half of this stuff.)

[charterzard]

Yay! Glad you like Shiloh. I thought she was pretty cute myself.

I had fun doing this room challenge because I took out like ALL my Body Shop CC to make room for buy mode stuff. There's no way my game could run with all that in it at one time.

And if you have any WCIFs feel free to ask - I get some kind of weird pleasure out of answering those. TMI?

[mikelisryker]

not really, because I'm the same way. Weird? Yeah. I'm sure my downloads folder is relatively small as far as downloads go in the community (I just, today, broke 3GB)

[mikelisryker]

Okay, I do have a few things that I'm having issues finding (which is so weird, because I just saw them the other day, but didn't download.) In the little girls room, there is a recolor of the fallout computer. Where could I find that? Because I love that computer...and I would love it even more if I had recolors ^_^

i adore the laundry room! i almost never give my sims laundry rooms (don't know why *shrug*) but those pics are really inspiring.... i think i may try to make a laundry room in my next sim house now :)
